Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View Bistro in Tenby, Pembrokeshire, was struggling with waste management. New staff were frequently mixing general rubbish with food waste, leading to contamination and increased collection fees. They needed a simple, visual system that required minimal training.
"We popped these Jantex labels on all our new slim bins. It sounds small, but the difference was immediate. The kitchen team knows exactly where everything goes now, just at a glance. No more confusion, no more wasted time sorting through bags. It’s just... sorted."
Gareth Evans – Head Chef
After implementing the labels, the bistro reduced its waste contamination by over 95% and cut down on time spent on waste sorting by 30 minutes each day.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure the bin lid surface is clean, dry, and free from grease before application.
- Peel the backing paper away carefully from one corner.
- Position the label where you want it, then smooth it down from the centre outwards to avoid air bubbles.
- Press firmly across the entire surface to ensure a strong, lasting bond.
Keeping It Going
- To clean, simply wipe over with a damp cloth and a mild detergent.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemical cleaners directly on the label.
- Check periodically that the edges are still firmly stuck down, especially in steamy environments.
- The durable material is designed to resist fading and peeling with normal use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this food waste label waterproof?
A: Yes, it's designed to be water-resistant and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth, making it perfect for a kitchen environment.
Q: How easy is it to remove the Jantex FX195 food waste sticker?
A: It's designed to be easily removable. Peeling it off slowly should leave little to no sticky residue, especially on smooth plastic surfaces.
Q: What surface does it stick to best?
A: It works best on clean, dry, and smooth surfaces like the plastic on the Jantex Slim Bin Lids. It may not adhere as well to rough or textured surfaces.
Q: Can I use this sticker on a bin that's kept outside?
A: While it's durable, it is primarily designed for indoor use. Constant exposure to rain and UV light may reduce its lifespan and adhesion.
Q: Is the brown colour significant?
A: Absolutely. Brown is the widely recognised UK standard colour for food waste bins, making it instantly identifiable for staff and waste collectors.
Q: Will it fit on bins from other brands?
A: With dimensions of 360x30mm, it will fit on any bin lid with a sufficiently large, flat surface, though it's designed for a perfect match with the Jantex range.
Q: How should I clean the surface before applying the sticker?
A: We recommend cleaning the surface with a mild detergent or an alcohol wipe to remove any grease or dirt, then ensuring it is completely dry.
Q: Does the text fade over time?
A: The label is printed with high-contrast, durable ink designed to resist fading under normal indoor kitchen conditions.
The Jantex Principle: Smarter Hygiene, Simpler Systems
Jantex has built its reputation not on flashy gadgets, but on brilliantly simple, effective solutions that solve real-world problems in commercial kitchens. This Jantex FX195 food waste sticker is a perfect example of that philosophy.

It’s these small, thoughtful details that prevent cross-contamination, ensure compliance with waste regulations, and contribute to a calmer, more organised, and ultimately more profitable operation.

Ever wondered why certain tasks in a kitchen become second nature? It's all about creating systems that your brain can process instantly. That's the real magic behind a simple brown catering food waste signage label. It's not just about labelling; it's about leveraging the power of colour-coding, a system used in professional kitchens to prevent mistakes and increase speed.
Think of it like a traffic light. You don't have to read the word 'Stop' to know what a red light means. In the same way, your staff quickly learn that 'Brown' means 'Food Waste'. During a hectic service when there's no time to think, this instant visual cue removes hesitation and drastically reduces the chance of someone accidentally throwing a plastic bottle into the food compost. It’s a simple, subconscious shortcut that makes your whole waste management process faster, more accurate, and less stressful for everyone.
