Product overview
Swan Retro 45L Square Sensor Bin Motion Activated Lid Colour Coated Iron Automatic Kitchen Waste Bin Grey
The Swan Retro 45L Square Sensor Bin combines hands-free waste disposal with Swan's distinctive retro-inspired styling. Finished in grey with a colour-coated iron body and matching cover, it provides a practical and stylish solution for general household and kitchen waste.
The generous 45-litre capacity is designed for busy households, helping reduce the frequency of emptying and changing bin liners. Its square design provides a practical footprint that can sit neatly against a wall or in a corner of the kitchen.

An integrated motion sensor allows the lid to open without touching the bin. Simply approach or swipe a hand near the sensor bar, approximately 5–15cm from the sensor, and the lid opens automatically. After approximately five seconds without activity, the lid closes automatically, providing convenient hands-free disposal when carrying plates, food preparation waste or other items.
The bin is powered by four AA batteries, which are not included. A discreet battery compartment and on/off switch are incorporated into the design, allowing the automatic sensor function to be disabled when required.
The body is manufactured from colour-coated iron, providing a durable metal construction with a smooth grey finish. The retro styling is designed to complement Swan's Retro Collection and coordinate with a range of kitchen interiors.
A removable bin liner retaining ring secures the liner around the inside rim. This helps prevent the liner from slipping down into the bin and makes removing and replacing full bags more straightforward.
The grey Swan Retro sensor bin is particularly suited to kitchen use, although its 45L capacity and general-purpose construction make it suitable for other indoor household environments where a large, hands-free waste bin is required.
