LEGRABOX ECO base for 300mm Cabinet, Orion Grey

This is Blum's complete waste solution for a 300mm base cabinet, built around their LEGRABOX drawer system. You get everything needed to create a fully integrated bin storage system that uses every millimetre of your cabinet space efficiently.

Where It Fits

The system fits into a 300mm wide base cabinet and needs at least 640mm of internal height and 503mm of depth. It works well in smaller kitchens where every centimetre counts, or as part of a larger waste sorting setup where you want dedicated compartments for different types of refuse.

How It Works

The drawer pulls out on heavy-duty runners rated for 40kg, bringing your bins with it. A cross divider system keeps everything stable, so bins won't shift or tip when you're using them. The BLUMOTION mechanism means the drawer closes softly and quietly, even when fully loaded.

An odour trap shelf sits across the top of the bin area to contain smells, and it doubles as storage for spare bin bags. Non-slip matting in the drawer base keeps everything secure and can be lifted out for cleaning.

Why It Matters

Having your bins pull out completely means you're not reaching into dark cabinet corners or struggling with awkward angles. The 42-litre capacity in a 300mm space is substantial for daily household waste, and the contained system keeps kitchen odours under control.

Design Consideration

This works particularly well if you're planning handleless cabinets, as you can specify the TIP-ON BLUMOTION version for push-to-open operation. The Orion Grey finish coordinates with contemporary kitchen schemes, though you'll want to consider how it pairs with your chosen cabinet interiors.

The system does require specific minimum cabinet dimensions, so your kitchen design needs to accommodate the 640mm height requirement from the outset.

Build Quality

Blum's LEGRABOX system uses steel sides with reinforced fibreglass handles. The runners are engineered for commercial-grade use and the whole assembly comes with a lifetime guarantee. The drawer arrives fully assembled with bins positioned and ready to install.

Options

You can choose between standard BLUMOTION soft-close or TIP-ON BLUMOTION for handleless operation. Optional lids are available if you want additional odour control.

Closing Guidance

If you have a 300mm cabinet that currently houses a basic swing-door bin setup, this system will give you much better access and capacity. The investment makes most sense if waste management is a daily frustration in your current kitchen layout.
