STS Stainless Trolleys

• Used for internal transport of ingredients and finished products within food processing facilities.
• Suitable for temporary storage of raw materials, work-in-progress, or waste products.
• Ideal for moving items between different stages of a production line, such as preparation, cooking, or packaging.
• Often employed in hygienic environments for handling meat, dairy, bakery, and produce.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 100 kg to 300 kg, depending on design and wheel strength.

Power supply

These are typically unpowered, manually operated trolleys.

Material

Units of this type are almost exclusively constructed from food-grade stainless steel, such as 304 or 316.

Footprint

Commonly found dimensions for these trolleys allow them to navigate standard industrial doorways and corridors.

Wheel configuration

Typically features four swivel castors, sometimes with two braked, for manoeuvrability.

Maintenance requirements

Requires routine cleaning and occasional inspection of castors for wear and tear.

• What are the advantages of stainless steel trolleys in food processing?

  Stainless steel offers excellent hygiene, corrosion resistance, and durability, making it ideal for environments requiring frequent washing and exposure to various food products.

• Are these trolleys suitable for cold storage environments?

• How should I clean and sanitise these trolleys?

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.
