Wybone Supplies FSC Certified Iroko Bins to Cragside National Trust Site

The National Trust works tirelessly to maintain, preserve and care for areas of natural beauty and important landscapes. Polluting such areas with litter can have devastating effects on biodiversity.

We understand the importance of waste disposal and believe in innovative solutions that match their surroundings. We knew that we needed to provide bins manufactured with ethically sourced products that didn’t distract or deter from the beauty of Cragside. 

The WTS/8 Iroko Hardwood Litter Bin is manufactured with Iroko, offering superior durability and resistance to both rot and insect attack. The material is hard-wearing and will not decay despite being outside and open to the elements. Its appearance blends seamlessly with Cragside’s beauty while helping keep the area clean for the enjoyment of the public and the welfare of its wildlife.

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has promoted the responsible management of the world’s forests via timber authentication since 1993 and verifies sustainable sourcing from forest to consumer. It is part of our environmental policy that we buy from suppliers who have sound environmental properties. 

Responsible forestry can help fight climate change, protect biodiversity and support communities, with the FSCs “check label” being the most trusted mark for responsible forestry; we knew our product was perfect for the National Trust.

The National Trust has reached its target to generate 50 percent of its own energy from renewable sources and is targeting to reach net zero by 2030. In the past nine years, they have installed 138 renewable energy projects that generate 24 million kilowatt hours of energy each year; enough to power 8,400 homes.

The WTS range is the perfect solution for anyone who requires waste disposal with a smarter appearance that is hard-wearing and sustainable. The products can be customised with signage or can be manufactured with recycled plastic as opposed to Iroko.  

Our WTS/8D Double Iroko Hardwood Litter Bin has two sides that allow you to either increase the volume of the bin or add artwork to differentiate the two sides’ purpose, such as general waste and recycling.

The WTS/240 Timber Wheelie Bin Cover is perfect for collecting large capacities of waste and hiding unsightly wheelie bins.

Our WTS/2W Timber Slatted Litter Bin is smaller than the standard WTS/8 and features an open top. This product is cheaper and has express delivery that offers customers a mere 48-hour wait for orders placed before 1pm.

We look forward to future opportunities to help worthy causes such as environmental sustainability.
