Suggested bag size (W × L)45 × 50 cm

How it works

  1. 1Width = girth ÷ 2 = 28 × π ÷ 2 ≈ 44 cm
  2. 2Length = 34 + diameter ÷ 2 = 48 cm
  3. 3Round up to 5 cm → 45 × 50 cm

Round bin: bag width = mouth girth ÷ 2 (π × D ÷ 2), which leaves the fold-over cuff; bag length = bin height + half the diameter so the bag reaches the bottom and folds over the rim.

Square bin: bag width = long side + short side (girth ÷ 2), bag length = height + 10-15 cm. Drawstring bags need about 5 cm extra length for the cord channel.

Kitchen bins with wet waste: add ~5 cm to the width so the cuff grips the rim; living-room bins can stay closer to size to avoid excess overhang.
