- Pros: The touch mechanism is reliable and far more hygienic than open-top bins.
- Cons: The matt finish, while stylish, can show light-coloured dust more than stainless steel.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Artizan Bakery in Bath needed a new waste solution for their customer seating area. Their old open-top bin was unhygienic and didn't match their recently refurbished, modern interior with black accents.
"We wanted something that looked the part but was also practical for our customers and easy for our staff to manage. The Brabantia bin was the perfect fit. It’s clean, sleek, and the touch lid is fantastic."
David Chen – Owner, The Artizan Bakery
The result was an immediate improvement in the café's appearance and hygiene. Staff reported fewer spills around the bin area, saving an estimated 30 minutes of cleaning time each day.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the bin from its box and remove all protective packaging.
- Inside, you'll find a sample pack of Brabantia PerfectFit bin bags (Code H).
- Simply place a liner inside, fit the lid unit on top, and it’s ready for action.
- Position it on a flat, even surface, leaving a little space behind for lid clearance.
Keeping It Going
- To clean the matt black Brabantia waste bin, simply wipe it with a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads as they can damage the finish.
- The protective plastic ring on the base prevents floor damage and can be wiped clean.
- Regularly check the touch mechanism is free from debris to ensure smooth operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the soft-touch opening mechanism noisy?
A: Not at all. It's designed for a quiet, gentle opening and closing, making it ideal for calm environments like offices, spas, or quiet cafés.
Q: Does the matt black finish show a lot of fingerprints?
A: The matt black finish is actually very effective at hiding fingerprints and smudges compared to glossy or polished stainless steel surfaces.
Q: What size bin bags does the Brabantia Touch Bin 60 Litre take?
A: It's designed for Brabantia's own PerfectFit bags (Code H), but any good quality 60L or larger bin liner will also fit well.
Q: Is this bin heavy to move when it's full?
A: While it will have some weight when full, it features a sturdy, integrated grip on the back specifically to make it easier to lift and move for emptying or cleaning.
Q: Can I use this bin outdoors?
A: This bin is designed and manufactured for indoor use. Outdoor exposure could damage the finish and the opening mechanism over time.
Q: Does this model have a removable inner bucket?
A: No, this 60L model is a single-shell design. You place the bin liner directly into the bin, which makes it lighter and maximises internal capacity.
Q: How do you change the bag without an inner bucket?
A: The top lid unit lifts off completely, giving you wide, easy access to remove the full bag and fit a new one.
Q: Is the touch mechanism powered by batteries?
A: No, it's a purely mechanical system. There are no batteries to worry about replacing, ensuring reliable operation for years.

Explore more from BrabantiaHow the Soft-Touch System Elevates Hygiene
You've probably wrestled with a pedal bin while your hands are full or recoiled from touching a grimy swing-bin lid. The 'Soft-Touch' system on this Brabantia bin solves that. It’s not electronic or complicated; it's a clever mechanical design where the lid latch opens with the lightest pressure from your hand, wrist, or even your elbow.
Think of it like the soft-close drawers in a high-end kitchen – a gentle nudge is all it takes for a smooth, silent, and controlled action. This means no more clanging lids, no awkward foot pedals, and a much more hygienic way to dispose of waste, which is essential in any professional environment.
