Premium HDPE recycling bins from 10 to 1100 litres – 2-wheeled and 4-wheeled. Manufactured exclusively in Haan, Germany since 1969. Direct from the certified manufacturer.
Weber GmbH & Co. KG manufactures certified recycling bins and waste containers for residential, commercial, municipal and industrial use. All 2-wheeled and 4-wheeled models comply with DIN EN 840 and carry the GS safety mark (Geprüfte Sicherheit). The range covers 60 to 1100 litres, produced exclusively in Haan, Germany – from raw material intake to dispatch.
What makes this relevant for procurement: Weber provides full certification documentation with every delivery – EN 840 conformity certificates, GS mark with PAH test reports, ISO certificates and CE declarations. No separate requests, no delays. Standard practice for municipal and public-sector orders.
Weber recycling bins are available in all colours required for separate waste collection systems: grey (residual waste), green (glass), blue (paper), brown (biowaste), yellow (packaging/plastics) and red (hazardous). All sizes are dimensionally compatible with the EN 840 lifting systems used by side- and rear-loading collection vehicles across Europe.
Factory-fitted options include hot-foil printing of municipality names or bin numbers, RFID chip nests, lockable lids, lid apertures and heavy-duty castors. Spare parts are stocked for all models. Contact us for a quotation or to request documentation.

Quality & Compliance
All Weber recycling bins and waste containers are certified by independent testing institutes. EN 840, GS Mark, Blue Angel, ISO 9001/14001/45001/50001 – every product leaves Haan fully documented. Detailed information on each certification is available in the FAQ section below.
Weber recycling bins are manufactured from high-molecular-weight, impact-resistant HDPE (high-density polyethylene) sourced from established raw material suppliers. All grades are fully UV-stabilised and proven for outdoor use across an operational temperature range of −40 °C to +80 °C – relevant for deployments in both Nordic winters and Southern European summers.
On request, tested recycled HDPE from decommissioned waste containers is available. This closes the material loop without compromising mechanical performance. All raw materials are tested to confirm outdoor suitability and compliance with PAH limits under AfPS GS 2019:01 – the standard that underpins the GS mark requirement.
Wall thickness and load geometry are optimised at every structural stress point through the compact injection moulding process. Over more than 50 years of production, Weber has refined these parameters to achieve the longest possible service life – directly relevant for total cost of ownership in municipal fleets.
Frequently Asked Questions
All Weber recycling bins and waste containers are manufactured in compliance with DIN EN 840 and carry the GS safety symbol (Geprüfte Sicherheit), issued by state-approved testing bodies. The GS certification includes mandatory PAH testing under AfPS GS 2019:01 – confirming that carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are within legal limits in every colour variant produced.
Quality management at the Haan site is certified to ISO 9001; environmental management to ISO 14001; occupational health and safety to ISO 45001 (certified 2024); and energy management to ISO 50001. CE marking confirms compliance with EC Directive 2000/14 on noise emissions. Selected recycling bins carry The Blue Angel ecolabel of the German federal government, qualifying them for green public procurement (GPP) frameworks in Germany and across the EU. Outdoor litter bins (50 L) comply with DIN 30713. Clinical and hazardous waste containers from 240 to 1100 litres are approved under UN 3291, ADR/RID UN type 4H2, class II & III for the transport of clinical and infectious waste by road and rail.
These certifications are not one-time approvals: ongoing production batches are regularly tested by independent institutes to confirm consistent conformity. Complete certification documentation – test reports, declarations of conformity, ISO certificates, Blue Angel documentation – is available for all products and standard practice for public-sector and municipal procurement.
Weber uses high-molecular-weight, impact-resistant HDPE for all recycling bins and waste containers. The material is fully UV-stabilised and operates reliably from −40 °C to +80 °C, covering the full range of outdoor conditions encountered across European climates. Chemical resistance makes it suitable for waste fractions including biowaste, packaging, glass and hazardous materials without degradation of the container body.
The compact injection moulding process allows precise control of wall thickness at structural stress points – the axle area, hinge mounting and base corners. This is where cheap containers fail. Weber has been refining these parameters since 1969, which is directly reflected in service life and warranty performance in municipal fleet deployments.
Recycled HDPE from decommissioned containers is available on request and has been tested to the same mechanical and chemical standards as virgin material. This option is relevant for procurement specifications requiring recycled content under EU Green Public Procurement criteria.
Weber supplies recycling bins and waste containers in all standard colours for separate waste collection: grey (residual waste), green (glass), blue (paper), brown (biowaste), yellow (packaging and plastics), orange and red (hazardous and clinical waste). All HDPE colours are UV-stabilised and carry the GS mark. Additional colours are available on request for special applications.
Factory-fitted options include hot-foil printing of municipality names, coat of arms or sequential bin numbers; RFID chip nests for automated fleet and route management; lockable lids; various lid apertures for restricted access; and heavy-duty castors. All 660, 770 and 1100 L containers are available with lid-in-lid aperture for smaller-volume disposal without fully opening the container. Spare parts are stocked for all current models and available directly from Haan.
DIN EN 840 is the binding European standard for 2-wheeled and 4-wheeled mobile waste containers. It specifies dimensional requirements, load capacity, wall thickness, tipping force, brake performance and compatibility with the lifting systems of standard side- and rear-loading collection vehicles. EN 840 compliance is a mandatory procurement criterion for municipal waste containers across Europe. Weber exceeds the requirements of EN 840 and subjects ongoing production to regular independent monitoring – not only an initial prototype test. This is the distinction between a certified manufacturer and one that has simply passed a one-time sample submission.
Weber clinical waste containers from 240 to 1100 litres are approved under UN 3291 for the transport of clinical waste arising from medical care and treatment. The UN type 4H2 approval covers packaging group class II and III under the ADR (road) and RID (rail) dangerous goods regulations. Containers are leak-proof, lockable and supplied in standard yellow. The UN approval certificates are available for tender documentation. These containers are used by hospitals, healthcare networks, waste management operators and public health authorities across Europe.
