The Defenders Step Can delivers commercial-grade waste containment with a 25 Gal. capacity and a stainless steel exterior engineered for continuous use in high-traffic environments. Designed for custodial teams, food service operations, hospitals, schools, and hospitality venues, this step can combines mobility, durability, and code compliance to streamline waste handling while protecting facility aesthetics.
Stainless Steel Construction
Built from stainless steel, the unit resists corrosion and maintains a professional finish under heavy use. The material supports frequent cleaning cycles and preserves the can’s appearance in kitchens and public spaces.
25 Gallon Capacity
With a 25 Gal. volume, the can accommodates moderate to large waste loads, reducing the frequency of emptying during peak service periods. Facilities can extend service intervals without sacrificing containment performance.
Step-Operated Lid
A foot-operated step mechanism provides hands-free access to the interior, lowering cross-contamination risk and improving sanitation protocols in foodservice and clinical settings. Staff achieve reliable operation while maintaining a hygienic workflow.
Retainer Band With Liner
The supplied retainer band secures a plastic liner, ensuring bags remain in place during use and preventing slippage during removal. Maintenance routines become faster and cleaner, cutting time spent on waste collection.
Wheeled Mobility
Integrated wheels allow staff to reposition the can across facilities with minimal effort, supporting efficient routing during janitorial rounds or event turnover. Teams can move the unit on hard floors without lifting, reducing strain.
Regulatory Approvals
UL and FM approvals, plus OSHA notation, indicate the can meets recognized safety and performance standards for commercial environments. Buyers receive equipment that aligns with facility compliance expectations and operational policies.
