The centrepiece of this series is the KUA pedal bin. It particularly embodies the design element of a column and looks solid and elegant at the same time. The inner bin has a volume of 3 litres and can be removed for emptying. The lid closes flush with the housing, creating a modern look. The lid can be opened hygienically using the pedal and closes silently thanks to the soft-close function.
The entire series is made from recycled polyresin, making it particularly resource-friendly. Polyresin is a material made from ground stone and plastic and is characterised by its extremely high durability and robustness.
The inner elements such as the bucket and lid are made of plastic.
The series is available in several colours.
Designer: Anton Björsing
About
Swedish designer Anton Björsing (born 1983) graduated from Stenebyskolan and Carl Malmsten Furniture Studies in Stockholm in 2012. He also pursued interior and spatial design at London's Chelsea College of Art and Design.
In the years since his graduation, Björsing has forged close collaborations with several of Sweden's most celebrated product and furniture companies. Despite his initial grounding as a trained cabinetmaker, with a great understanding of wood's intrinsic qualities, his curiosity, knowledge of materials and willingness to embrace challenges have propelled him to explore a vast array of materials.
Björsing’s design philosophy is firmly rooted in the Scandinavian tradition, although he simultaneously pushes the boundaries of convention to unearth new design possibilities. His aim is to craft products that resonate with people, seamlessly marrying form and function.
We recommend regular cleaning with a cloth moistened with lukewarm water. Avoid using abrasive or chemical cleaning agents, as these can permanently damage the surface. After cleaning, the surface should be thoroughly wiped dry with a cloth to avoid water stains or streaking. Only use soft cloths for cleaning and care.
