Want to cut waste going to landfill, reduce the number of bins in your kitchen designs, improve hygiene and air quality for clients and save space? Easy. Include a waste disposal unit
Waste disposal units - or WDUs - seamlessly integrate into the sink space and offer convenience, improved hygiene and space-saving benefits.
With all households generating food waste, from single-person dwellings to large family homes, they provide an efficient solution for reducing kitchen waste, making them appealing to homeowners and designers.
Environmental benefits of WDUs
A WDU is a low-cost enhancement that significantly cuts down the amount of food waste sent to landfill.
They also help create a greener home environment by liquefying food waste into fine particles that are easily flushed through the plumbing system.
The process can handle fruit and vegetable peelings, small bones, coffee grounds, nutshells, eggshells and more, reducing kitchen waste bound for landfill by up to 50 per cent.
Convenience and hygiene
WDUs help maintain a cleaner kitchen by quickly and easily disposing of organic food waste, reducing the risk of odours and germs.
They simplify kitchen cleanup, eliminating the need for multiple bins and offering a convenient way to handle food waste.
Their ease of use ensures they can be effortlessly integrated into daily routines, making them a practical addition to any kitchen.
Space optimisation
With a reduced need for waste and recycling bins, WDUs are a plus in project design as they optimise valuable kitchen space for other uses.
Their compact design allows for easy installation under the sink, making efficient use of cupboard space. This is particularly beneficial in smaller living areas, such as flats and modern urban homes, where maximising every inch of space is crucial.
