How to Choose the Right Size

The 5 Litre bin is ideal for bathrooms, bedside tables, small offices, and compact spaces where a discreet, slim bin is needed. The 8 Litre bin suits medium-use spaces such as home offices, guest bathrooms, and bedroom corners. The 12 Litre bin is best for kitchens, dining areas, and high-traffic spaces where a larger capacity is required for daily use.

About the Soft Close Lid

The EKO 9115 features a soft-close lid that closes slowly and silently — no slamming, no noise. The stay-open function holds the lid open when needed for hands-free disposal of larger items. The cantilever foot pedal is engineered for smooth, reliable operation with minimal effort, keeping hands completely free from contact with the bin.

Black Steel Fingerprint Resistant Finish

The Black Steel finish is a matte black stainless steel surface treated to resist fingerprints and smudges. It maintains a clean, bold appearance with minimal upkeep — simply wipe with a damp cloth. The black finish is particularly well-suited to modern, industrial, and monochrome interiors where a strong design statement is desired.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sizes is the EKO 9115 Artistic Step Bin Black Steel available in?

Q: What is included in the box?
A: Each purchase includes 1 EKO 9115 Artistic Step Bin and 1 removable inner liner.

Q: What material is the EKO 9115 Black Steel made from?
A: The bin is made from stainless steel with a matte black fingerprint-resistant finish. The inner liner is plastic.

Q: What does ‘soft close’ mean?
A: Soft close means the lid closes slowly and silently on its own after use — it does not slam shut. This reduces noise and wear on the hinge mechanism, extending the life of the bin. The lid also has a stay-open function for hands-free use when needed.

Q: Is the Black Steel finish really fingerprint resistant?
A: Yes. The matte black stainless steel surface is treated with a fingerprint-resistant coating that minimises smudges and marks from everyday handling. It is easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth and requires minimal maintenance to look its best.

Q: How do I change the bin bag?
A: The EKO 9115 has a removable inner liner that lifts out of the bin, making it easy to remove and replace the bin bag without touching the outer shell. A plastic bag stabilizer holds the bag securely in place inside the liner.

Q: Which size should I choose for my kitchen?
A: For kitchen use, the 12 Litre bin is recommended as it provides sufficient capacity for daily kitchen waste. The 8 Litre is suitable for smaller kitchens or low-waste households. The 5 Litre is best for bathrooms and offices rather than kitchens.

Q: Can this bin be used in a commercial or office setting?
A: Yes. The EKO 9115 is suitable for home, office, kitchen, restaurant, hospital, and other commercial spaces. Its slim profile, hygienic foot-pedal operation, and easy-clean matte black finish make it ideal for professional environments.

Q: How does the Black Steel version differ from the Champagne Gold version?
A: Both are the same EKO 9115 Artistic model with identical features, sizes, and pricing. The only difference is the finish. Black Steel has a bold, matte black appearance suited to modern, industrial, and monochrome interiors. Champagne Gold has a warm, luxurious tone suited to premium kitchens and bathrooms with gold, brass, or warm neutral accents.

Q: What interior styles suit the Black Steel finish?
A: The Black Steel finish suits modern contemporary, industrial, minimalist, Scandinavian, and monochrome interiors. It pairs beautifully with white, concrete, charcoal, matte black fixtures, brushed steel, and dark wood surfaces — making it a strong design statement in premium kitchens and bathrooms.

Q: What is the approximate weight of the bin?
A: The approximate weight is 2 to 2.8 kg, varying by size. The 5 Litre is the lightest and the 12 Litre is the heaviest.
