The HOTBIN is made from
The HOTBIN is made from ARPRO® Expanded Polypropylene also known as “EPP”. This is a specialist, multi-use plastic that is very durable . ARPRO® EPP offers high impact strength and is used extensively throughout the automotive industry in impact protection components such as car bumpers and can also be found in children’s bicycle safety helmets. EPP also has tremendous insulation properties too!
EPP is not a “single-use” plastic, the material is fully recyclable and can be made into new products. HOTBIN consists of just 4% raw material and 96% air, making the HOTBIN extremely resource efficient!
