Waste sorting is more than just tossing scraps into the bin – it’s about finding a system that works for your home, your habits, and your space. With the right waste solution, your kitchen becomes a cleaner and more efficient place to manage everyday food waste.
Whether you’re starting fresh or upgrading your current setup, this guide will help you make sense of your options.
What Is a Waste Solution?
A waste solution refers to the combination of tools, containers, and habits that support efficient waste sorting in your household. For food waste specifically, this usually includes:
- A bio waste bin
- Compostable bio bags
- A bag dispenser
- Possibly a rack to organise multiple bins
A good solution adapts to your routine and space – not the other way around.
Why It Matters
- Reduces sorting mistakes
The easier it is to separate food waste from other trash, the more consistent your sorting becomes – even during busy days. - Improves hygiene and cleanliness
A well-planned setup minimises leaks, spills, and unpleasant smells. That’s key in any kitchen environment. - Supports long-term sustainability
When sorting becomes part of the daily rhythm, you’re more likely to stick with it – and contribute meaningfully to recycling systems.
Key Elements of an Effective Kitchen Waste Setup
- Bio waste bin
Choose a bin that is compact, ventilated, and easy to clean – like Nordic Sorting’s bio waste bin. - Compostable bags
Make sure your bags are certified and fit the bin perfectly. They reduce mess and make emptying easier. - Bag dispenser
Nordic Sorting’s bio bag dispenser keeps your bags organised and always within reach. - Waste bin rack
If you have multiple bins (e.g., for general waste, plastics, and food waste), a waste bin rack helps you keep them stable and structured.
Tips for Creating a Functional System
- Place your bio waste bin near the food prep area
- Mount the bag dispenser within arm’s reach
- Involve the whole household in the system – consistency is key
- Clean the bin and rack regularly for a better experience
