Pedal Bin BRABANTIA NewIcon 30 L Warm Brass – 30 litre step trash can, pedal-operated, soft-close lid

The BRABANTIA NewIcon 30 L Warm Brass is a 30 litre step-operated pedal bin designed for everyday home or office waste management. Its metal body and warm brass finish combine durability with a refined appearance. The pedal mechanism provides hands-free opening while the soft-close lid minimizes noise and prevents slamming, making it suitable for kitchens, utility rooms and shared spaces where discreet and hygienic waste disposal is required.

Advantages

The pedal-operated design ensures contact-free use, reducing the spread of germs. A soft-close mechanism closes the lid slowly and quietly, extending the life of the bin and protecting the finish. The stable base and robust metal construction offer long-term durability and resistance to everyday wear. The warm brass finish provides a contemporary aesthetic that integrates with a variety of interior styles while keeping waste out of sight.

How to use

Place the pedal bin on a flat, level surface away from direct heat sources. To open, press the pedal with your foot and release to allow the soft-close lid to descend slowly. For regular emptying, remove the inner bucket if present or lift the lid and carefully transfer waste to an appropriate refuse bag. Wipe the external surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish. Ensure the pedal pathway remains clear of obstructions to maintain smooth operation.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a properly sized refuse liner to protect the inner surface and simplify emptying. Regular cleaning and drying of the inner container prevent odours and residue build-up. Position the bin where the pedal can be comfortably reached and where the soft-close lid has sufficient clearance to operate silently.
