Recycling as much of our waste as possible has never been more important, but it is a task that often gets neglected amidst the business of our everyday lives. Streamlining one’s recycling routine is so much easier with dedicated recycling bins for food waste, paper, plastics, glass etc.
Whilst we love beautiful aesthetics, the team at THE GREAT ADDRESS is also a keen supporter of recycling, so we were delighted to discover the CUBEK range of recycling bins for kitchen by DON HIERRO. This all-in-one bin and recycling system achieves that rare feat of being both incredibly practical and effortlessly stylish. Recycling at home just got easier.
At THE GREAT ADDRESS, we are always keen to explore opportunities for greener and more sustainable ways of living. Separating waste and recycling are some of the easiest ways we can do our part for the environment. Household waste recycling is easy and efficient when you have chosen the right recycling bin. It does not take much to pop, for instance, plastic bottles and glass into separate containers ready for recycling. With the massive range of recycling bins available, setting up a waste management system that works for your home is simple.
The CUBEK range – a compact waste and recycling solution – was love at first sight for the team at THE GREAT ADDRESS. The range by Spanish DON HIERRO is one of the most aesthetically-pleasing recycling bins for kitchen on the market, so you can do your bit for the environment while keeping your kitchen clutter-free and looking good.
Well-made from steel, which is powder-coated in a range of colours, or stainless steel if you prefer a more industrial look, the range boasts a sleek and wonderfully stylish design that you would not know is holding household waste ready to be taken out for recycling.
Perfect for separating compostable waste, household rubbish and recyclables, CUBEK allows you to replace multiple recycling bins in your kitchen with a single unit. The pull-out door reveals several compartments, each with a colour-coded bucket, allowing you to sort different recyclable materials effortlessly. Each inner plastic bucket can be removed from the unit thanks to the metal handles and slots back in easily once emptied. Each waste and recycling boasts with intelligent features such as a spare compartment – found underneath its lidded top – for small items such as extra garbage bags and used batteries.
So there will be no more cluttering up your kitchen with separate bins, boxes and bags for all your waste – just a single, beautifully designed unit that does it all while looking ever-so stylish in your kitchen.

MODERN AND STYLISH DESIGN: With a sleek, tactile design, the CUBEK series is a stylish and discreet way to organise your recycling. The design is understated yet stunning – the perfect aesthetic for any modern home.
ONE SINGLE UNIT: You will no longer need several separate waste containers for garbage, recycling and food waste, as the CUBEK is a single system that comes with up to four compartments for recycling, food waste and general trash. So in a single unit, you will have everything at hand.
QUALITY MATERIAL: The CUBEK recycling units are both durable and high quality. For an elegant look, there are stainless-steel versions. Other models feature an easy-clean powder-coated steel finish that is available in several colours.
MULTITUDE SIZES: The recycling bins for kitchen are available in many sizes and configurations, ideal for whether you live in a studio apartment or a family home. Despite the modest dimensions, CUBEK’s innovative frame and compartment design provides a generous total capacity of 40 litres, 60 litres and 80 litres, split between two, three or four compartments.
MULTI COMPARTMENTS: Each recycling bin elegantly accommodates several large multi-purpose compartments. The compartmentalised unit holds between 40 and 80 litres and is comprised of removable, individual plastic buckets for the storing of different kinds of recyclable trash and waste. The colour-coded inner recycling buckets hold 20 litres each. This will keep your food waste, glass, plastic, tins and paper separate and all under one lid. The removable plastic inner bins come with a sturdy chrome-plated handle for ease of emptying and cleaning.
In addition to these compartments, the bin has two more at the top, one for old batteries and another for storing spare garbage bags.
EASY OPENING AND ACCESS: With an ergonomic, stainless steel handle, the recycling bin’s well-articulated opening system allows you to access all the compartments simultaneously. Ergonomically, it also means that you do not have to bend down to open the lower compartments. You can also access the bin’s upper section from the top, thanks to its top lid.
COLOURS: The waste and recycling system comes in a variety of colours to complement an array of home decors beautifully. Choose from sleek and shiny to matt and contemporary. Make a dramatic statement with black, or go for brighter colours such as turquoise, olive green or ochre. For those who want a more discreet look, choose sand, white or grey.
