- Cons: It’s only compatible with specific Jantex slim bin models, so check first.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Deli in York needed to upgrade its back-of-house waste system. Their old open-top bins were unhygienic and looked unprofessional, which was a constant concern for their kitchen manager, especially during health inspections.
"We switched all our kitchen bins to the Jantex slim line system and added these lids. The difference was immediate. The kitchen looks tidier, the odours are gone, and the staff find it much easier to keep the place clean. It’s such a simple change but it has made our workspace so much better."
Robert Green – Head Chef
The upgrade resulted in a noticeable improvement in hygiene standards and eliminated all previous staff complaints about unpleasant smells in the kitchen.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the lid and remove any protective film.
- Ensure you have a compatible Jantex Slim Bin (FX149, DX965, or DX966).
- Simply place the lid squarely on top of the bin base for a snug, secure fit.
- For a full recycling system, apply corresponding Jantex waste labels to the front of the bin base.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe the lid daily with a damp cloth and a food-safe sanitiser to maintain hygiene.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scouring pads, as they can scratch the plastic.
- Periodically check the swing-top pivots and clear any debris to ensure smooth operation.
- Allow the lid to air dry completely before placing it back on the bin after a deep clean.
Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is it made from?
A: It's made from a robust and durable polypropylene plastic, which is built to withstand the demands of a commercial setting.

The Jantex Standard: Smarter, Cleaner Operations
Jantex has built its reputation on providing practical, no-nonsense equipment that simply works. This replacement lid for 60L waste bin embodies that philosophy. Beyond the specifications, investing in a cohesive system from a trusted brand like Jantex brings long-term value. It's about more than just covering rubbish; it's about creating an environment of efficiency, safety, and professionalism. A well-organised waste station reduces cross-contamination risks, helps you meet hygiene standards like HACCP, and even boosts staff morale—because a tidy workspace is a happier, more productive one. Choosing the full Jantex system (bins, lids, and labels) ensures perfect compatibility and a uniform look that signals to everyone—from your team to your customers—that you care about the details.
Explore more from JantexHow a Simple Lid Can Supercharge Your Recycling
On its own, the Jantex DX179 is a great lid. But its real power is unlocked when you see it as part of a complete waste management system. The lid is designed to be mixed and matched with Jantex's colour-coded slim bins and their compatible waste segregation labels (sold separately). This means you can easily create a dedicated, intuitive recycling station anywhere in your business.
Think of it like creating a filing system for your rubbish. Instead of one big messy pile, you can have clearly marked 'folders' for general waste, glass, paper, and food scraps. By using a standard black waste bin cover commercial on different coloured bases, you create a uniform look that’s easy for staff to understand at a glance. It takes the guesswork out of recycling, making it faster, more efficient, and far more likely to be done correctly.
