Tanova Designer Series Kitchen Waste Bin Systems
Description

FIT’s range of Tanova Designer Series pull out kitchen waste bins are space-efficient, hygienic and easy to clean. They stay out of sight yet are easily accessed when needed. With many models providing multiple buckets within the frame, Tanova's Designer Series offers great functionality for sorting different kinds of kitchen waste, such as organics and recycling.

The Tanova Designer Series pull out kitchen waste bin range features super smooth sliding runners for easy opening and closing. They also feature a fully integrated cushioning system for quiet and soft closing.

Powder coated electro-galv steel frames are fabricated in Auckland by FIT’s partners at FEL Group. Extruded aluminium side panels connect the frame with the runners, which over- extend past the edge of the benchtop to allow for easy removal of the basket.

For cabinets from 300mm to 800mm, the Tanova Designer Series pull out kitchen waste bin range offers a variety of configurations from one bucket to four, allowing for situations such as workplaces that require large volume waste receptacles and busy family homes that sort waste into recyclable types.

This premium range offers two colourways; classic white and contemporary dark grey. Tanova Designer Series kitchen waste bins models with 20L and/or 36L buckets carry the official NZ Made licence.

Limitations on Use

Suitable for residential use, taking into account the following:

  • For kitchen bins, if using a liner, take care to ensure the liner does not become entangled in the unit’s drawer runners.
  • Regularly remove crumbs, sticky residue or other matter from near and on runners using a soft brush or damp cloth.
  • Be familiar with the load capacity of the Tanova unit and do not exceed it.
  • When opening and closing the Tanova unit or when adding items to the bucket, do not apply strong downward force (such as pushing waste down with force to pack more into the bucket) as this may damage the runners.
  • Take care not to damage painted surface of the metal frames with hard or metallic objects. If the paint becomes chipped, it is recommended that the chip is repaired with a touch-up paint as recommended by a reputable paint supplier.
  • Do not use caustic cleaners on any part of the Tanova unit.
  • Some dishwasher powders are particularly caustic, as are dry salt, salt water and any citrus juice. If they spill onto the Tanova unit frame, remove the powder promptly with a soft brush or damp cloth taking care to re-wipe the surface clean after rinsing cloth free of substance.
  • Painted steel parts – clean with a soft brush or cloth, using warm water and a mild soap such as dishwashing liquid, which will help break down any stains. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Powder coated aluminium parts — clean with a soft brush or cloth, using warm water and a mild soap such as dishwashing liquid, which will help break down any stains. Avoid harsh chemicals. Wiping with a microfibre cloth is also a good dusting/cleaning method.
  • Plastic buckets — to avoid odours, regularly wash out with warm water and dishwashing liquid, rinse well and dry. If possible, leaving to dry in the sun is a great idea.
  • Plastic buckets are dishwasher safe.
  • Refer to the Care & Maintenance document for further detail.
In-Service History

FIT released their first premium Tanova kitchen waste bins (the Deluxe range) in February 2012, a year after the introduction of their initial locally developed kitchen waste bin options. Since then, a number of innovations have occurred within the wider Tanova range, including the refinement of the initial Deluxe range to become the current Designer Series in 2019.
