💡 The Mid-Size Advantage

Perfect Balance Point
Forty-six litres hits the sweet spot between compact 20L crates and bulky 66L containers. Large enough to handle substantial quantities, yet manageable enough for one person to carry when loaded. The 400x600mm Euro standard footprint means these integrate seamlessly with pallet systems used across UK warehouses – two crates span an 800mm pallet perfectly.

Grey for Flexibility
Neutral grey works everywhere. It doesn't designate specific departments or products, making these crates ideal for general-purpose storage that adapts as your needs change. The professional appearance suits any environment from customer-facing retail areas to industrial production floors. Grey also hides the inevitable scuffs and marks better than lighter colours.

Built for Pallet Systems
The 400x600mm base isn't random – it's the European standard that ensures compatibility with virtually every pallet, racking system, and material handling setup in the UK. Stack four crates on a standard Euro pallet, slide them onto industrial shelving without wasted space, or integrate them with automated storage systems. Everything just fits.

Industrial Strength Construction
Thick-walled polypropylene construction handles the knocks and drops of daily warehouse life. The reinforced base distributes 20kg loads evenly without sagging, whilst corner posts are engineered to handle stacking compression. Temperature extremes from -20°C to +60°C won't make the material brittle or soft. These crates are built to last years, not months.

🏭 Best Applications

Warehouse Distribution
The Euro standard dimensions make these perfect for logistics operations. Load them on pallets for transport, stack them on racking for storage, or use them for order picking. The 46-litre capacity handles most product sizes without being unwieldy.

Manufacturing Environments
Position crates at production stations loaded with components. The enclosed design keeps parts clean and organised, whilst the neutral grey doesn't interfere with safety colour-coding. Chemical resistance handles exposure to industrial fluids and cleaning agents.

Retail Stockrooms
Store merchandise, manage deliveries, and organise stock replenishment. The professional grey appearance looks appropriate if crates need to venture onto the shop floor. The Euro standard size maximises shelf space efficiency.

Automotive Parts Storage
From filters to brake components, these crates handle automotive inventory efficiently. The material resists oils and solvents, whilst the 46-litre capacity suits most parts perfectly. Stack them high to maximise vertical storage space.

Food Distribution (Dry Goods)
Store packaged foods, ingredients, and catering supplies. The smooth, non-porous surface cleans easily, and the enclosed design protects contents from contamination. Grey is commonly used for general dry goods in food distribution.

General Industrial Storage
Tools, equipment, spare parts, raw materials – these crates handle diverse storage needs. The neutral colour provides flexibility as storage requirements change over time.
