The Konica Stainless Steel Bin by AKA is a compact, open-top wastebasket with a 10L capacity. Its tapered body gives the product a distinct profile, while the steel exterior, black rim and black base create a simple two-tone appearance. Measuring 30 × 26 cm, Konica offers an option for offices, home workspaces and guest rooms where a small bin is more appropriate than a large floor-standing container.
A Tapered Profile with an Open Top
Konica is wider at the opening and narrower towards the base. This tapered shape distinguishes it from straight-sided cylindrical bins. The catalogue design also shows rows of small perforations around the lower body, adding detail without changing the overall clean appearance. Black trim frames the upper edge and base, giving the steel body a clear outline.
The open top provides direct access for small, everyday items such as paper and packaging. There is no lid to lift or pedal to operate. This format can be convenient beside a desk or in a reading area, especially when quick access matters more than concealing the contents.

Choosing a 10L Bin for Your Space
A 10L bin can suit a single workstation, a bedroom or a small reception desk with modest waste volumes. Before choosing a position, compare the listed dimensions with the available space and leave the opening accessible. When placing a bin under a desk, also consider legroom and the route used to remove it for emptying.
For a project with several rooms, using the same model can provide a consistent appearance. However, each location may need a different capacity. Shared areas with more users or larger items may be better served by a larger bin; capacity should follow the actual use of the space.
Where Konica Fits Best
- Individual office desks and home workspaces
- Hotel guest rooms and bedrooms
- Reading areas and small meeting rooms
- Reception desks with limited waste volumes
These are suggested applications for its size and open-top design. An open wastebasket does not conceal contents or provide a closed barrier. For food waste, shared washrooms or locations that require covered disposal, choose a suitable lidded model instead.
Selecting and Specifying Your Bin
When making an enquiry, include the Konica model name, 10L capacity, quantity and intended location. Use the listed 30 × 26 cm dimensions when checking the fit. The catalogue shows a steel body with black trim; ask AKA to confirm any other colour or finish before specifying it for a project.
For an alternative with foot-operated opening, compare the AKA stainless steel pedal bin. Konica is the simpler choice when you prefer a compact wastebasket with an accessible open top.
