Cristina de la Riva - Con-té

Con-té

The Con-té recycling container is a product designed to solve problems of functionality and ergonomics that arise during the interaction between user and the object when throwing away. The project is based on the idea that these types of objects still need tweaking.

The Con-té range of products comprises two containers, one of 10 litres (175x250x500) and another of 20 litres, which come in a single unit or divided into two (350x250x500). The materials chosen are tinted stainless steel for the exterior covering and PEBD (low density polyethylene) with fireproofing on the rest of the pieces.

The main features of the proposed container are: the internal pedal which stops children and pets from getting at the waste easily, its modular capacity for small spaces, the fact that it is taller so you do not have to bend down so much, the lid opens more than 900 which makes it easier to get waste out and the identification stamp that tells you which container to use.
