Both bins give a guest room two 5 litre compartments, 10 litres in total, so recycling and general waste can sit in one unit. They are room bins. They are not ensuite pedal bins. Keep a Core or Action pedal bin in the bathroom.
Tandem 10 L

Tandem 10 L (model TDCR10L) is a round guest-room bin. An iron-coated black outer holds two plastic inners, beige and grey, with recycling marks. Size is diameter 225 x height 270 mm, wall 0.4 mm, net weight 1.25 kg. Packing is 6 pieces per carton. Warranty is 3 years. Typical lead time is 8 to 10 weeks. Specify Tandem when the standard is a labelled round recycling pair by the desk or wardrobe.
Manchester 2 x 5 L

Manchester 2 x 5 L (model MCW2410) is the other dual-compartment room bin at the same 2 x 5 litre split. Warranty on the current listing is 1 year. Use Manchester when that model is already the brand standard, and Tandem when the schedule calls for the iron-coated black body and the 3 year cover.
Keep one shape in the hotel
Do not mix the two in one hotel without a reason. Housekeeping trains guests and staff on one shape, one liner size, and one label layout.
Quick answer: Tandem 10 L and Manchester 2 x 5 L both split guest-room waste into two 5 L compartments. Choose one shape for the hotel and keep the bathroom pedal bin separate.
