Enkel Medium Bin metal brown / 19 liters - L 21 x D 39 x H 50 cm

Enkel 19 L Bin: Waste sorting made more discreet

Its name comes from the Danish word “enkel,” which means “simple.” A definition that perfectly sums up the Enkel Medium bin by Ferm Living. Its oval shape, clean lines, and Chocolate finish transform an object that is usually purely functional into an accessory that blends naturally into any interior. With a 19-liter capacity and a width of just 21 cm, it fits easily into tight spaces. Its powder coated steel body conceals a removable inner bucket made of black recycled plastic, equipped with a metal handle for easy handling.

A slim silhouette designed for tight spaces

Enkel’s strength lies in its proportions. Its oval shape and narrow width allow it to be placed against a wall, between two pieces of furniture, or in a corner without taking up unnecessary space. The powder coated finish gives the steel a uniform, contemporary look, while the Chocolate color allows the bin to blend more easily into a refined decoration. Its minimalist design thus makes a statement without looking like a utilitarian piece of equipment.

Is a 19-liter bin suitable for a kitchen?

Yes, a 19-liter bin is suitable for a small kitchen—particularly for a single person, for limited amounts of waste, or as a dedicated recycling bin. For a household that generates more waste, this size is best suited as a secondary bin. Its compact size also makes it easy to fit in a bathroom, desk, or restroom.

Can you use multiple Enkel bins for recycling?

Yes. Ferm Living designed Enkel to be used on its own or arranged in a row with multiple bins. This makes it possible to create a customized waste sorting system —for example, by designating one bin for packaging, another for paper, and a third for household waste. Their identical design ensures a visually cohesive look, even when multiple bins are grouped together.

Is the inner bucket removable?

Yes, Enkel features a removable inner bucket made of black recycled plastic. Its metal handle makes it easy to pull out for emptying or cleaning, without having to move the entire steel structure. The manufacturer recommends rinsing the bin with hot water on both sides. It is not dishwasher-safe.

Is this bin suitable for small spaces?

Yes, its dimensions—L 21 x D 39 x H 50 cm—are particularly ideal when available width is limited. Its elongated shape allows it to maintain a 19-liter capacity while taking up minimal floor space. It is therefore a practical alternative to round or wider bins when every centimeter counts.

With Enkel, the trash bin no longer needs to be hidden away. Its understated design, Chocolate color, and carefully considered proportions allow it to blend into the room as a true everyday accessory—whether used alone or combined with other models to organize recycling with elegance.
