    Fire Safety in Bin Cabinets

    Fire safety is critical for bin cabinets in multi-family housing.

    Legal Requirements

    Bin cabinets must meet specific fire ratings: At least 10m from buildings or fire-rated material, separate compartments for different fractions.

    Compfence Solutions

    Our bin cabinets use fire-rated materials (steel, concrete, fire-retardant plywood) and have separate compartments that limit fire spread.

    Separation of Fractions

    Different fractions in separate compartments reduce the risk of fire spreading rapidly.

    Ventilation

    Good ventilation reduces the risk of spontaneous combustion in food waste and other organic material.

    Options

    Smoke detectors, automatic extinguishing systems, extra fire protection around electrical equipment.
