Trash can Wesco Kickmaster Soft Matt Black – pedal-operated steel bin 12 L

The Wesco Kickmaster Soft Matt Black is a pedal-operated steel bin with a 12-litre capacity, designed for hygienic hands-free waste disposal in homes and small workspaces. The matt black finish and compact cylindrical shape provide a discreet, modern appearance while the steel construction ensures durability. A soft-close mechanism reduces noise and prevents sudden lid drops, making the bin suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, offices and other areas where quiet, reliable waste management is required.

Advantages

The pedal mechanism enables hands-free opening to improve hygiene and convenience. The soft-close lid prevents slamming and extends the life of moving parts. Steel construction offers resistance to dents and everyday wear while the matt black finish conceals smudges and blends with a range of interior styles. The 12-litre volume balances compact footprint with practical capacity for typical household or office waste.

How to use

Place the bin on a flat, stable surface and ensure the pedal is unobstructed. Step on the pedal to open the lid and allow the soft-close mechanism to close the lid automatically after release.

Clean the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the matt finish.

Recommendations

For best results, use standard 12-litre liners to keep the interior clean and facilitate quick emptying. Position the bin away from direct heat sources and avoid overfilling to preserve the soft-close function. Regular light cleaning of the pedal and hinge area will extend operational reliability.
