Rags and cloths soaked in solvents, thinners, linseed oil or other ignitable liquids pose a serious fire hazard if not disposed of in the right receptacle. This waste container is specially designed for safe disposal of flammable materials. The specially constructed lid cannot be opened more than 60 degrees, which reduces the risk of the contents coming into contact with potential sources of ignition. The lid also reduces oxygen flow into the container, which eliminates the risk of self-combustion and prevents fires from starting. The lid can be opened by means of a convenient foot pedal. The circular shape of the container and raised base increases air circulation around it, which dissipates heat and reduces condensation and rust. The durable steel construction provides high chemical resistance. The container has handles so that it can easily be moved.

The waste container is approved according to both FM and UL. A product with UL marking is manufactured to the strictest industrial specifications. FM approval is granted by one of the largest organisations in the world for industrial risk management and guarantees that the container's materials and systems prevent fire and reduce the damage resulting from any outbreak of fire.
