Can a bin shelter be white? It certainly can – and how! This modern 3-bin shelter in brilliant white dispels the preconception that bin shelters must be dark and inconspicuous. Set against a light-coloured façade and a well-tended front garden, the white enclosure looks like a carefully chosen piece of furniture: clean, inviting and precise. It conceals three bins – and the entrance area visibly gains a sense of tranquillity and sophistication.
The reason why white works here is the material: the cladding is made from weather- and UV-resistant HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) by Trespa. The surface does not fade or become dull – the enclosure shines every day as if it had just come off the production line. This durable multi-layer laminate really comes into its own with light colours, as it requires absolutely no maintenance: if the bin shelter gets dirty, all you need is a garden hose and a cloth. Sanding, waterproofing or repainting are a thing of the past – as is the question of whether white is a suitable colour for a bin storage unit.
The 3-bin version accommodates either 120-litre or 240-litre bins – enough for general waste, paper and the recycling bin. Each bin is individually accessible, so that on collection day, only the relevant bin needs to be rolled out. Our example of a 3-bin bin shelter in anthracite shows how the compact version for 120-litre bins looks in a dark colour – the same design, but with a completely different character. It is precisely this range of options that makes the choice of colour so effective.
A bin storage unit is used every day – lift the lid, pop the bag in, roll the bin out. With an impact resistance of over 40 newtons, the HPL cladding withstands knocks and hail without flinching, and the sealed surface absorbs neither odours nor moisture. The adjustable feet compensate for uneven paving, ensuring that doors and lids close properly at all times. The expected lifespan is around 50 years.
Our modern waste bin unit is available in standard sizes as 2-bin, 3-bin and 4-bin units, as well as made to measure – with an integrated letterbox, parcel compartment or doorbell on request. In addition to white, there are over 250 HPL colours and finishes to choose from. We’ll send you free colour samples to your home in advance so you can assess the shade right next to your façade and front door.
Like all DESIGA products, this bin storage unit is developed in-house and manufactured in Germany – with delivery across Europe and on-site installation available on request. Over 2,000 completed projects and a 5-star rating from more than 220 Google reviews show that this attention to detail pays off.
