Product Details:
Reliable 180 Litre Storage for Salt and Grit
With a generous capacity, the Maelor Trafflex is well suited to sites requiring dependable winter service provision. As a grit bin 180 litre model, it offers ample storage for treated salt or grit, helping ensure pathways and access routes remain safe during icy conditions.
Typical specification areas include:
• Public footways and pedestrian routes
• Schools, colleges, and campus environments
• Hospitals and healthcare estates
• Business parks and logistics sites
• Car parks and residential developments
• Local authority highways and maintenance depots
This makes it a practical salt bin 180 litre option for organisations managing large external areas.
Tough Plastic Construction with Reinforced Security
The Maelor Trafflex is manufactured from tough, durable plastic designed to withstand harsh weather and regular use. Unlike traditional metal bins, the plastic body will not corrode, making it particularly effective for long-term outdoor deployment.
Key construction features include:
• Heavy-duty plastic shell for all-season performance
• Internal steel reinforcing frame for added strength
• Designed to resist overturning and vandalism
• High security format for public realm environments
As a plastic grit bin, it provides a strong balance of durability and low maintenance.
Lockable Grit Bin for Public Safety and Control
Where grit supplies need to be protected from misuse or tampering, the Maelor Trafflex can be specified as a lockable grit bin, supporting controlled access in shared public spaces.
This is particularly valuable for:
• Schools and education settings
• Public parks and open spaces
• High street and town centre locations
• Transport interchanges and car parks
The reinforced design helps ensure winter materials remain available when needed most.
Sustainable Manufacture and Public Realm Suitability
Every unit in the Maelor range is manufactured in part from recycled materials, supporting sustainability targets often required within local authority procurement and public sector frameworks.
The bin is supplied with:
• Two gold vinyl Tidyman logos
• Decorative band detailing for visibility and identification
It can also be paired with other winter maintenance products and wider street furniture schemes, such as bollards, seating, and litter bins, to ensure consistent public realm design.
