MAILBOX AND STAMP VENDING MACHINE FOR ROYAL MAIL

Retail mailbox and stamp vending machine

Typical mailboxes are heavy cast-iron and permanently fixed with two-foot foundations. IDEO’s new mailbox for the British Royal Mail is made of high-quality, glass-reinforced, Class 1 fireproof polyester, suitable for the retail environment. It bolts to the ground and can be quickly installed in prepared sites.

This tough, secure unit can be repaired in place and is also easily removable for refurbishing. A curved cap discourages placement of extraneous items, and its overhang prevents any spillage from running down the bodywork.
