Waste bin ESSELTE BASKO 18L black – 18 litre capacity, compact office dustbin

ESSELTE BASKO 18L black is a compact 18-litre waste bin designed for office and home use. The bin's moderate capacity and slim footprint make it suitable for placement under desks, beside workstations or in small communal areas. A neutral black finish integrates with a wide range of interiors. The product is intended for everyday dry waste such as paper, packaging and small non-liquid refuse, and its construction supports simple cleaning and low-maintenance operation.

Advantages

The ESSELTE BASKO 18L offers a space-saving design combined with a durable plastic body that resists scratches and staining. Its 18-litre capacity balances holding volume with compact dimensions, allowing convenient placement in confined office areas. The smooth interior surface simplifies emptying and wiping clean, while the neutral black colour reduces visible dirt and coordinates with typical office furniture.

How to use

Place the ESSELTE BASKO 18L on a flat, stable surface such as beside a desk or under a workstation. Use the bin for dry office waste—paper, small packaging, tissues and similar non-liquid refuse.

Wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent when needed; avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.

Usage recommendations

For hygienic and practical operation, use standard 18-litre liners sized to the bin, or place small reusable liners that fit the compact profile. Reserve the bin for dry waste only and avoid disposing of liquids or hot materials. Position the bin where it is easily accessible but not obstructing foot traffic to maintain tidy and safe work areas.
