Description
The Thermaster WBC2-240 is a refrigerated underbench waste bin cooler designed to house two 240-litre wheelie bins in a single stainless steel cabinet. Built for commercial kitchens, food courts, and hospitality venues that need compliant chilled waste storage, the WBC2-240 keeps organic waste refrigerated at the point of disposal to control odour, reduce bacteria growth, and meet food-safety requirements — without requiring a separate coolroom.
