We are developing an innovative bin bag with a liquid-absorbing liner, designed to trap and contain moisture, reducing leaks, spills, and odours. This product will differentiate itself from standard bin bags by offering a built-in absorbent layer, making it ideal for households, commercial kitchens, healthcare, and industrial applications where liquid waste is common.
Key Design Requirements 1. Material & Durability • Multi-layer construction: • Outer Layer – Tear-resistant, leakproof plastic (biodegradable or recycled options available). • Inner Liner – Absorbent material capable of soaking up liquids, grease, and spills. • Sealed base – Reinforced to prevent leakage and sagging. • Designed for high-capacity and heavy-duty use. 2. Absorbent Liner Technology • Liner made from super-absorbent polymer (SAP) material or plant-based absorbent fibres. • Capable of absorbing up to X millilitres per bag (to be determined based on testing). • Prevents odour buildup by locking in moisture and reducing bacterial growth. 3. Closure & Sealing Mechanism • Drawstring closure for easy tying and transport. • Alternative options: tie-handle or self-sealing flap for secure containment. • Potential for odour-neutralising technology integrated into the closure area. 4. Size & Capacity Variations • Standard (20–30L) – Ideal for home use. • Large (50–80L) – Suitable for commercial and industrial settings. • Extra-Large (100L+) – Heavy-duty waste collection applications. 5. Sustainability Considerations • Available in biodegradable, compostable, or recycled plastic variants. • Option for eco-friendly packaging, using minimal plastic wrapping or bulk-roll designs. 6. User Convenience & Features • Pre-folded dispensing for easy access from a roll or box. • Odour and spill containment to improve hygiene and reduce cleaning effort. • Suitable for wet waste, food waste, and general refuse without compromising strength.
Design Deliverables Required: • Concept Sketches & 3D Renderings showcasing structure, liner placement, and sealing methods. • Technical Drawings & Material Specifications for prototyping and manufacturing. • Prototype Development Recommendations, including absorbency capacity testing and material sourcing.
