Applications & Use Cases

• Food preparation areas requiring hygienic and durable surfaces.
• Industrial workshops needing robust and easy-to-clean workstations.

• Cleanrooms where non-corrosive and sanitizable surfaces are essential.

Typical Specifications

Typical construction material

Frame and undershelf commonly stainless steel (grade 304 or 430), with a plastic worktop as described for this unit, or sometimes a full stainless steel top.

Typical dimensions (L x W)

For this class of equipment, lengths typically range from 600mm to 2000mm, and widths from 600mm to 900mm. Height is commonly around 850-900mm.

Worktop material characteristics

Plastic worktops, as on this unit, typically offer good impact resistance and can be gentler on tools or products than a full metal surface. They are generally food-safe and easy to clean.

Load bearing capacity

Typically designed to support static loads ranging from 100kg to 300kg, depending on frame gauge and leg configuration.

Adjustability

Many units feature adjustable feet for levelling on uneven floors. Some may offer height-adjustable legs, though this is less common for basic worktops.

Hygiene standards

Stainless steel and food-grade plastic surfaces are commonly specified to meet general hygiene requirements for food contact and processing environments.
