Solid Steel Perforated Racking – This is a robust shelving system with perforated shelves designed for environments requiring excellent airflow. Its perforated steel shelves promote ventilation and prevent dust buildup, while its tool-free assembly makes it quick and easy to set up.

Construction and Design

This racking system combines strength with a highly breathable design.

• Shelves: Made from zinc-plated steel, these shelves are resistant to rust and corrosion. The perforated surface allows for optimal air circulation, making it ideal for items that need to be kept dry or cool.
• Poles: Sturdy, stainless steel poles with a 25 mm diameter. They are grooved at 25 mm increments, allowing you to freely adjust the shelf heights.
• Assembly: The system uses a clever, tool-free wedge-lock mechanism. Plastic tapered collars snap onto the poles, and the shelves slide over them for a secure fit.
• Stability: Each unit includes adjustable, non-marking plastic feet to ensure stability on uneven floors.

Common Applications

The combination of strength and excellent ventilation makes this racking suitable for a variety of environments where airflow is important.

• General Storage: The perforated design is excellent for stockrooms and warehouses as it prevents dust and moisture from accumulating on items.
• Food & Catering: Perfect for storing produce or dry goods in a kitchen, pantry, or cold room where air circulation helps preserve freshness.
• Medical & Laboratory Use: This racking is great for storing sterile items, as the open design prevents dust from settling and can be used in areas requiring air circulation, like instrument drying rooms.
• Electronics & IT: Ideal for server rooms or workshops where good airflow is essential to prevent overheating.

Options and Accessories

You can tailor the racking system to your specific needs with several available accessories.
