Vipp 17 pedal bin

Vipp 17 Pedal Bin. From a Danish hair salon to the wider world: Holger Nielsen designed a waste bin in 1939 for his wife's hair salon because all the existing bins at the time lacked the desired features. What does the original need? A corrosion-resistant galvanized inner bucket made of sheet steel (30 L) for easy removal and cleaning. A floor-friendly rubber ring at the base to prevent the bin from sliding around. A softly closing, air-damped pedal mechanism for the semi-circular stainless steel lid, which falls onto a rubber seal at the rim for hygienic and odor-reducing closure. And an easy-to-press, round pedal with a rubber surface, ensuring that waste lands in the bin quickly when needed. But it’s not just the functionality that impresses with the Vipp 17 Pedal Bin; the appealing design is also worth noting.
