Optimum utilization of resources like never before!!! With Gianluca Solid’s Ovetto, you wouldn’t have to hide your trash bin in the corners but can flaunt it upfront. In an attempt to go green, the Ovetto is made out of recycled polypropylene and meets the needs of domestic waste separation. This helps educate the population to correctly dispose of waste in order to be able to consequently recycle it.

Available in white and black color with a capacity of 15 to 17 Liter, it requires 25/35 Liter bags and is an object of interior design that unites functionality, design and environmental education. Each of its compartments has ventilation to accommodate air circulation. Separation of waste plays an important role in the integrated management system of waste as it allows the reduction in the trash that ends up at landfills. To make certain that waste is correctly disposed off and recycled; waste must be kept separate according to the material class it belongs to.

So all you need to do is drop your waste in the small colored slot on the top, pull out the larger storage sections when you need to empty. Endowed with futuristic curves, this egg-shaped bin is fitted with separate compartments for your recycled items, like paper, plastic, glass etc is probably the hippest bin on the market, with the added bonus of being one of the greenest. It could be all yours for £139.99.

If you want your young kid to pick up the habit of recycling early or if you intend to add a touch of classy musical feel to your trash bin, then this is perfect for you. It is not very often that one gets to see a concept that looks good, sounds good and also does well for the planet. The Xylophone Bin is one such rare concept which we would like to have ourselves and enjoy some beautiful notes every time we put the waste back where it belongs.

“Xylophone Bin” is an amazing creation by Dominic Wilcox designed for Danish Company Vipp?s charity auction event held in New York. The bin has crafted wooden stairs around it that go from longer to shorter. When you open the lid, a metal ball is released on to the steps and goes bouncing down the steps to create a symphony of sound. It goes from the high note to the low note and probably this will encourage your young one (and even you) to put trash where it belongs more often. This truly is one eco gadget that is a delight to the senses.
