The Altus trash bin with ashtray (03.052.8), meticulously designed by Iwona Żaczek, represents a pinnacle of functional urban furniture. This high-capacity trash bin, featuring a volume of 13 1/4 gallons, is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of public spaces while maintaining a sophisticated aesthetic. Standing at 40 1/4 inches tall with a 15-inch flank, the unit offers a streamlined profile suitable for parks, plazas, and city centers. The integrated ashtray ensures efficient waste management, making it an essential component of modern street furniture designed to maintain cleanliness in high-traffic pedestrian areas.
Durability is at the core of the Altus series construction. The robust frame is available in either high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304) or painted carbon steel (S235Jr), providing exceptional resistance to environmental stressors and mechanical damage. The versatility of the design is further extended through a variety of housing material options, including European coniferous wood, hardwood of European origin, oiled or premium exotic wood, and contemporary HPL boards. These premium finishes allow the product to blend seamlessly into diverse architectural landscapes, whether traditional or modern, reinforcing its status as a versatile element of street furniture.
Functionality is paired with stability, as the unit is designed for a secure mounting method to the ground via screws. This anchoring ensures the trash garbage can remains firmly in place, even in busy urban environments. By combining high-quality materials with thoughtful design, the Altus bin effectively manages waste while serving as a durable, long-term investment for municipalities and private developers. As part of a comprehensive line of urban furniture, this product exemplifies ZANO’s commitment to combining aesthetic appeal with practical, lasting infrastructure solutions for public utility.
