Product Details

The UmiMax ventilated bucket is developed for everyday food waste collection in households, restaurants, and smaller commercial kitchens. Paired with Biobags, the ventilation system is widely used by consumers and distributed by many community composters, municipalities and waste management organizations to support better food waste sorting habits.

  • Designed for retailers, municipal distribution and consumers- Ask us about free bins for pilot programs!
  • Made from 93%+ post-consumer plastic
  • Fits easily under your sink or on the countertop
  • Black, sturdy and comes with an easy-to-carry handle that locks the lid tight
  • Aerated on all sides and lid to ensure maximum ventilation which minimizes odors, mold and mildew
  • Dishwasher safe
  • The bucket fits Biobag SmallSHOP and 2-3g compostable waste bags, creating a complete system for separating organic waste before it is sent to composting or biogas treatment.
  • Biobags sold separately

Kitchen food scraps can build up bacterial odor quickly when collected in a solid plastic, metal or ceramic pail. The reason is, food waste is very wet. This creates heat and moisture that cannot escape when placed in these closed containers. Many modern collection pails contain charcoal filters or other devices to help mask the odor but do little to slow the “rotting process.”

The bins’ ventilated sides and lid allow the moisture to evaporate and the food waste to dry out. This means that the waste does not rot, unpleasant odors are reduced, and the weight is reduced by 7% to 12% over 3 days which reduces handling costs significantly.  

Thousands of households are already using our food scrap sorting kit to collect their food-waste with, and many governments and municipalities around the world have also started using and distributing our buckets and food waste bags to drive the behavior change needed to fight climate change. 

Made from durable, recycled plastic, the bucket is designed for long-term use and fits neatly under the sink or on the kitchen countertop.

Please contact us for more detailed information about the bucket. They come in various quantities and assortments for either retailer or municipal distribution. Ask us about free bins for pilot programs!
