Racks Stainless steel

• Storage of ingredients, components, or finished products within food processing facilities.
• Organisation of tools, utensils, and small equipment in production areas.
• Drying or cooling of food items in a controlled environment.
• Temporary holding of goods in preparation for further processing or packaging.
• General utility storage in hygienic environments requiring corrosion resistance.

Typical construction material

Stainless steel (commonly grades 304 or 316 for food contact zones) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Load capacity per shelf

Typically ranges from 50kg to 200kg, depending on shelf gauge and support structure.

Overall dimensions

Units of this type commonly have footprints around 1000mm x 800mm and heights up to 2000mm.

Number of shelves

Varies, but typically 3 to 6 adjustable or fixed shelves for this class of equipment.

Mobility

Often supplied with or adaptable for castors; this unit is described as having a liftable base.

Hygiene features

Smooth surfaces, often with open frames or perforated shelves to facilitate cleaning and drainage.

• Are these racks suitable for cold storage environments?

  Yes, stainless steel racks are highly suitable for refrigerated and freezer environments due to their corrosion resistance at low temperatures.

• Can the shelves be adjusted or removed?

Lab organisation and storage equipment is valued for maximising workspace efficiency and protecting sensitive materials from contamination. Buyers typically prioritise durability, proper shelving capacity, and chemical resistance when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment favours equipment with adjustable configurations to accommodate evolving laboratory needs. Common strengths include robust construction and long operational lifespan when maintained correctly. When buying used, inspectors should examine structural integrity, verify compatibility with existing lab layouts, and confirm any specialised coating or material specifications remain intact for intended applications.
