The Rubbermaid Commercial Untouchable trash can swing top is a square, high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) top used with the Rubbermaid Commercial Untouchable 3569 garbage can (sold separately). The top quickly closes after trash disposal to hide refuse from view. High-impact polystyrene (HIPS) is more flexible than general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS) and is resistant to impacts and heat. This product meets the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 2010 Standards for Accessible Design.
Trash cans are used for the disposal and temporary storage of garbage. They are typically made of plastic or metal and sometimes have a top or lid to contain odors and waste. Certain garbage cans meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements for the disposal of medical waste or National Sanitation Foundation/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) requirements for food handling and processing. Others include a lock to prevent unauthorized access, safeguard confidential materials, and comply with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements. Waste bins can also be color-coded to facilitate the separation of recyclable waste, such as bottles, cans, paper, and general refuse. Ash/trash cans typically include an ash tray on top for cigarette disposal. Trash cans are used in virtually all commercial and industrial environments.
Rubbermaid manufactures cleaning, organizing, and material handling products for commercial, medical, and industrial applications. The company, founded in 1933, is headquartered in Huntersville, NC.
