Coloured Recycling Bins for Easy Waste Separation

Colour coded bins make it so easy to see at a glance which type of waste should go into which container. Each bin features a sticker on its lid or rim to show exactly what can go into it, and users will soon learn these colours – recycling correctly quickly becomes second nature. Wherever these bins are used, it’s a simple, visual way to boost recycling efficiency and reduce cross-contamination. Each coloured lid serves a distinct purpose:

  • Lime for kitchen waste
  • Brown for kitchen waste (alternative colour)
  • Green for glass or mixed recycling (see stickers)
  • Blue for paper and card
  • Red for plastics
  • Black for general waste or batteries (see stickers)
  • Yellow for textiles
  • Grey for tins or metals

With changes in workplace recycling as part of the government's Simpler Recycling policies, our bins make it much easier to meet the new rules. Whether setting up a full waste station or just needing a couple of colour recycle bins, we make it simple and affordable to set up.

Versatile Colour Coded Bins in a Range of Sizes

Our colour coded bins are available in capacities of 30, 50 and 60 litres, ensuring you get exactly what you need to fit your specific requirements. From school corridors and busy offices to canteens, warehouses and even the home, there’s a Chabrias bin that’s perfect for the job.

From our wide selection, you can choose open-top bins when fast disposal is needed, swing lids for better odour control and even hands-free pedal bins for those areas where hygiene is critical. Our coloured recycling bins come with coloured lids and clear labelling, making the separation of paper, plastic, glass, food waste and more waste types easier than ever. We even sell them in sets of four to help you build a complete recycling station for less, with individual lids available so you can pick and choose your ideal categories.
