Henri Teal
Created in collaboration with Copenhagen-based salon HENRI, Vipp returns its pedal bin to where it all began. Finished in ‘Henri teal’, the limited-edition products add subtle warmth to the industrial materiality, introducing a softer expression while preserving their familiar form and function.
Product Details
“If you go back to the beginning, Vipp started in a salon. My father originally made the first pedal bin for my mother’s hairdressing salon. For decades, his bins were primarily used by professionals such as doctors, dentists, and hairdressers before entering private homes. Bringing the bin back into a salon context feels like closing a circle.”
– JETTE EGELUND, DAUGHTER OF VIPP FOUNDER HOLGER NIELSEN

When metalsmith Holger Nielsen crafted the first Vipp pedal bin in 1939, it was a practical solution for his wife Marie’s hairdressing salon. Designed to meet professional demands for durability and ease of use, the bin quickly found its way into clinics, practices, and salons across Denmark, long before becoming a household object in private homes.
Now, more than eight decades later, the pedal bin finds itself back in its original setting.

“If we go back to the beginning everything was beige. It matched my mother’s hairdressing salon, for which it was originally made.”
