There's a new kid on the block when it comes to
mainstream recycling
and it's the
food waste
kitchen caddy.
Most consumers are now recycling packaging and products they buy, but
how many of you are still scraping peelings and leftover food in to
your ordinary rubbish bin? Food waste recycling is being taken up more
and more and soon we'll all be doing it, so why not get started
straight away.
Food preparation
It's probably fair to say that we all
hate throwing away food,
but sometimes it's just not possible to use every morsel of the food
you prepare or cook. Greens are good for us, but there's always a stork
or a bad
spot we need to remove before cooking. Chopped carrots are great with
dips, but they're not quite so good with the peel in tact. All these
shavings from
pre-cooking and any other
organic
materials
you might usually throw away can go in to your Kitchen Caddy for
recycling. If you're lucky enough to get fresh flowers delivered to
your door, these can also go in when they wilt.
Food leftovers
Sometimes
our eyes are bigger than our appetite and we just
can't finish the
food on our plates. You can recycle these leftovers too by scraping
them into your kitchen recycling caddy. This
compact and convenient
food recycling bin is wide, so it's long enough to catch falling food
when you're ready to clear your dishes and scrape in any organic waste
for recycling. It holds 5 litres of food waste, which
is enough to
fulfill your food recycling needs whilst at the same time being small
enough to
fit into your kitchen without being an eyesore.
Odour free
The last thing you want at a dinner party is the smell of last
night's supper, so the Kitchen Caddy has a
tight fitting lid
to make sure odours from food waste do not escape in to your kitchen.
The Kitchen Caddy is made from recycled plastic and is smooth inside to
make sure food is not able to become trapped - it's
extremely easy to clean.
For extra freshness you can use food waste liner bags inside your
Kitchen Caddy or simply empty the waste in to your compost bin outside.
This food waste bin is designed well at the base allowing you to grip
it for
easy emptying.
Dimensions
The
5 litre
Kitchen Caddy comes in an unobtrusive
silver or green colour and
the dimensions are:
- 205mm in height
- 250mm in width
- 205mm in depth
The food waste recycling Kitchen Caddy has a handle for
easy transportation
in and out of your home - emptying its contents in to a home composter
or taking the contents in a liner bag to your local recycling centre.
Next time you're preparing or clearing away food, consider this handy
little food bin and waste no more.
