03 QUESTIONS

EVERYTHING YOU NEED
TO CHOOSE.

01

CONTAINERS

What is the difference between stacking and nesting containers?

Stacking containers are designed to remain securely positioned when placed on top of one another. Nesting designs can fit inside each other when empty, helping reduce the space required for storage and return handling.

What are open-front containers designed for?

Open-front picking bins provide direct access to stored products or components without removing the container from a shelf or stack. They are particularly useful for repetitive picking and parts organisation.

What are mobile storage containers best suited for?

Mobile containers are designed for situations where stored goods need to be moved regularly between workstations, storage areas or operational zones.

02

PICKING & PARTS

Which containers are suitable for small components?

Small-parts bins and compartment-style trays are intended for organising components such as fittings, fasteners, hardware and other smaller stock items.

How can picking bins improve order preparation?

Their open-front design keeps frequently handled stock visible and accessible, reducing the need to remove containers from shelving during picking.

Can storage bins be used on warehouse shelving?

Many container formats are designed for shelf and racking applications. Always check the individual product dimensions against the available shelf depth, width and clearance.

03

MATERIALS & CAPACITY

How do I choose the correct container capacity?

Consider the dimensions, quantity and weight of the items being stored as well as the available shelf, floor or workstation space. Product dimensions and available capacity information are shown on individual product pages.

Are the containers suitable for commercial environments?

The range is intended primarily for B2B storage and handling applications, including warehouses, stockrooms, workshops, fulfilment operations and other commercial environments.

Where can I find dimensions and technical specifications?

Available dimensions, capacity, material information and other specifications are displayed on the relevant product page.

04

PROTECTIVE STORAGE

What is the difference between a protective case and a standard storage container?

Protective cases are intended for equipment requiring additional protection during handling, storage or transportation, whereas standard containers primarily provide practical organisation and storage.

When should I choose a waterproof protective case?

A waterproof case can be appropriate where equipment requires additional protection from water, dust or demanding handling conditions. Refer to the individual product specification for the stated level of protection.

What are flight cases designed for?

Flight cases provide reinforced storage and transport protection for equipment that may be moved frequently or handled in demanding commercial environments.

05

SPECIALIST STORAGE

What are bulk-material containers used for?

They are designed for storing and handling larger quantities of loose materials, components or supplies within commercial and industrial environments.

What are catering containers designed for?

Catering storage products provide practical storage and handling solutions for commercial catering, hospitality and food-service environments. Individual product specifications should be checked for the intended application.

What is utility storage?

Utility storage covers versatile containers intended for general commercial organisation where a specialised picking, protective or bulk-storage format is not required.

06

PRODUCT SELECTION

How do I choose between a storage box, picking bin and storage trunk?

Choose according to how the contents will be accessed and handled. Storage boxes work well for general organisation, picking bins prioritise frequent access, while larger trunks are better suited to bulky items and higher-volume storage.

How should I check whether a container will fit my shelving?

Compare the external product dimensions with the usable width, depth and height of the shelf or rack. Allow additional clearance where containers need to be removed or accessed from the front.

Which solution is better for frequently accessed stock?

Open-front picking bins, component bins and accessible trays are generally the most practical formats where stock needs to be identified and picked repeatedly during daily operations.
