Rubbermaid Commercial Products Introduces Slim Jim With Venting Channels

Winchester, VA - Rubbermaid Commercial Products, one of the industry leaders in waste management solutions, introduced the new Slim Jim with Venting Channels. The new Slim Jim waste container has been designed with innovative, patent-pending features that improve productivity and ergonomics.

"Labor-related costs have tremendous impact on the bottom line," said Christen Brooker, Product Manager. "To help reduce those costs, RCP designed the Slim Jim with Venting Channels to improve worker well-being and productivity. New patent-pending venting channels decrease the force required to lift out a full can liner by up to 60% when compared to similar traditional containers. Securing a can liner is more efficient with four new patent-pending molded-in can liner cinches—no more tying knots around the rim of the container."

Slim Jim with Venting Channels requires up to 60% less effort to empty because patent-pending integrated channels reduce the vacuum formed inside the container. This innovative design makes waste collection faster and easier for workers. The new Slim Jim also features four new patent-pending, can liner cinches that eliminate the need to tie knots in can liners. New molded-in side handles and bottom base grips improve lifting, emptying, and dragging. A new Stainless Steel dolly, with four all plastic swivel casters, provides corrosion resistant mobility in wet environments.

Two new lid styles are available: the Hinge Lid completely covers the container when not in use, complying with FDA Food Code standards, and the Swing Lid provides a hygienic, hands-free solution. The new Stainless Steel Dolly, Hinge Lid, and Swing Lid all maintain Slim Jim's famous narrow profile. The new lids and dolly are compatible with current, non-vented Slim Jims.
