These FOSSORH storage bins are constructed from sun-dried seagrass woven over a 1.2mm iron wire frame. This internal skeleton provides vertical compression resistance, allowing for stable placement on office or pantry shelves. The coffee-colored finish is achieved through a water-based stain, providing a uniform look that helps mask natural fiber inconsistencies.
Because natural seagrass lacks synthetic UV inhibitors, the fibers can become brittle if kept in environments with very low humidity (below 30%). To maintain the flexibility of the weave, it is best to use these in standard indoor living conditions. The bins feature a loop-and-button closure; for the longest life of the elastic tensioner, it is helpful to avoid overstuffing the bins beyond 85% of their volume.
Specifications show a height of approximately 4 inches, making these "flat" bins ideal for mail, documents, or linens. However, the hand-woven nature of the product means dimensions may vary by up to half an inch. If you are storing delicate textiles like silk, placing a fabric liner inside can help prevent the natural fiber ends from snagging the material.
For a taller waste-management solution with a similar weave, the Tidita 1.3 Gallon Waste Basket can complement your office setup.
These bins are specifically designed to fit well within closet shelf organizers to maximize unused vertical space.
