Emile Henry Compost Bin Clay

The Emile Henry Compost Bin finally answers a question most kitchens have been quietly grappling with — how do you compost without an unsightly bin taking over the counter? Made in France from ceramic, this compost bin was designed to fit harmoniously into most kitchens, making the daily job of collecting scraps easy and genuinely pleasant, rather than something to hide away in a cupboard.

With a 3.9L capacity and a small footprint on the countertop, the bin comfortably collects several days' worth of organic waste depending on household size, so you're not emptying it after every meal. A deep lid helps retain odours and prevents moisture building up, slowing mould growth and keeping things fresher between empties. The wide spout makes emptying straightforward and helps prevent fluids spilling down the sides mid-pour, a small design touch that makes a genuine difference in daily use.

Ceramic construction means the bin won't stain, oxidise, or decompose over time, so it keeps its good looks well beyond the usual lifespan of a plastic caddy. A stain-repellent rope handle adds comfort when carrying and emptying, and for cleaning, it simply lifts off so the bin itself can go straight into the dishwasher. Backed by a genuine 10 year guarantee and hand-made in Burgundy, this is a compost bin built to be a lasting, good-looking fixture on the counter rather than something to compromise on.
