FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Brooklyn, NY – June 30, 2023 - Brownstonebin, a leader in innovative waste management solutions, is providing access to its rat-proof trash containers designed specifically for restaurants. This state-of-the-art product responds directly to Mayor Adams’ June 28, 2023 announcement mandating that all New York City food-related businesses put their trash in secure containers.
The new rule, effective July 30, 2023, requires that all restaurants, supermarkets and bodegas use containers for their trash in an effort to combat New York City's rat problem. "Today, we take giant steps towards the goal of clean streets by announcing new rules to containerize trash in our city that, once finalized, will cover 25 percent of businesses and result in 4 million pounds of trash getting disposed of in secure bins each day," Adams said.
The key feature that sets Brownstonebin apart from other trash containers is its lockable and rat-proof, all-aluminum construction. The containers are highly durable and come with a five year warranty. In addition, they are easy to install, are customizable and environmentally friendly. Most importantly, the Brooklyn-designed trash containers are consistent with the new rule announced by the Mayor which requires a secure, lockable container, like BrownstoneBin.
Brownstonebin’s innovative design offers convenience and ease of use for restaurant staff. The user-friendly upper lid will stay open in place, allowing for hands-free lid-suppor t.BrownstoneBin employs a friction-hinge rather than the inferior gas struts used by some competitor’s bins. The struts can fail due to weather, and by being knocked out of place through normal use. Friction hinges are not affected by weather, and typically are life cycle-tested to 30,000 cycles or the equivalent of 10 years of usage. This BrownstoneBin feature not only ensures durability, but also streamlines waste disposal processes, saving valuable time for busy restaurant staff.
“We are excited to introduce the Brownstonebin rat-proof trash container to the restaurant industry,” said Josh Blackman, CEO of Brownstonebin. “Our goal is to provide an effective and reliable solution that helps restaurants overcome the challenges associated with rat infestations. With our innovative design and advanced features, we are confident that Brownstonebin will become the go-to choice for restaurants seeking an unparalleled rat-proof food-waste container.”
