Boot Rack

Applications & Use Cases

• Food processing facilities for maintaining hygiene standards among personnel.
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing plants to prevent cross-contamination.
• Agricultural settings, such as dairies or produce packing houses, for biosecurity.
• Cleanrooms and laboratories requiring strict environmental control.
• Industrial environments where footwear sanitation is critical before entering production areas.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Units of this type commonly accommodate 1 to 4 pairs of boots simultaneously for washing, with larger racks for storage typically holding 10 to 20 pairs.

Power supply

Automated boot washers typically require a 230V single-phase electrical supply, while manual racks do not require power.

Water connection

Automated systems commonly require a mains water connection (e.g., 1/2" BSP) and a drainage outlet.

Materials of construction

For this class of equipment, 304-grade stainless steel is typically used for durability and hygiene, particularly in food-grade environments.

Footprint

A typical boot wash station or rack might occupy an area of approximately 600mm to 1200mm in width and 400mm to 800mm in depth.

Cleaning method

Units can be manual (brush and hose) or automated, featuring rotating brushes and spray nozzles.
