Hi there. Our community has blue, yellow, black and brown bins. But I also found there is an orange bin. It is not the bright yellow recycled one. What is this used for? Thanks!

I‘d assume this is a regular Restmull bin.
Sometimes, they are also used for restaurant (kitchen) waste, but then I’d expect a bespoke label.
Fairly certain that is is a black bin, but has an orange lid because that’s the company branding. Probably not the smartest choice by the marketing team though.

Ask SR Dresden. You can find their phone number and their homepage on the pictured bin.
The company I work as has that exact type of bin (with the orange lid and with the SRD label, but without the round sticker on the right side of the lid) for residual waste.
So I guess it’s either somewhat random whether you get the lid in black or in orange, or orange is for commercial residual waste, whereas black is for domestic residual waste.

The two answers below say it’s for metal, wood, old clothes and electronic items.

I can’t tell if this is a standard Germany-wide use or not.
I don’t know under which name it goes together but it’s for like non-plastic reusables
