💪 Why Choose AUTORCE Industrial Storage Crates?
🏗️ Heavy-Duty Construction
Engineered from premium-grade polypropylene copolymer (PPC), these industrial crates are built to withstand the rigours of daily warehouse operations. The reinforced base and corner supports ensure structural integrity even when fully loaded, preventing warping or cracking under pressure.
📦 Intelligent Stackable Design
Purpose-designed stacking ribs and recessed base ensure secure, stable stacking up to 2 metres high when loaded. The interlocking design prevents shifting during transport while protecting products underneath from crushing. Maximise your vertical storage space without compromising safety.
♻️ Sustainable & Food-Safe
Made from 100% recyclable PPC material with full food-grade certification. Perfect for food production, catering supplies, and pharmaceutical storage. The non-porous surface resists bacterial growth and cleans easily with standard sanitising solutions.
💼 Professional Grey Finish
The neutral grey colour maintains a professional appearance in customer-facing environments while hiding minor scuffs and marks from daily use. Ideal for retail stockrooms, warehouse picking areas, and delivery vehicles.
🎯 Perfect Applications For 20L Industrial Crates:
Warehouse & Distribution Centres
Ideal for order picking, goods-in processing, and inventory management. The 20-litre capacity handles small to medium parts, components, and products efficiently. Compact footprint maximises shelf space while the open-top design allows quick visual stock checks.
Retail Stockrooms & Back-of-House
Perfect for organising stock replenishment, managing deliveries, and storing merchandise. The stackable design makes efficient use of limited stockroom space, while the durable construction withstands constant handling during busy trading periods.

Manufacturing & Assembly Lines

Automotive Workshops & Garages

🔧 Key Features & Benefits:
Reinforced Base Structure
Heavy-duty base with integrated support ribs distributes weight evenly, preventing sagging when loaded. The raised base design allows forklift and pallet truck access for efficient handling in warehouse environments.
Ergonomic Handling
Smooth exterior walls and rounded corners make manual handling comfortable and safe. The lightweight 1.08kg construction reduces strain during repetitive lifting, while the 15kg load capacity handles substantial payloads.
Temperature Resistant
Operates reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +60°C, making these crates suitable for cold storage facilities, outdoor use, and heated production environments without material degradation.
Easy Cleaning & Maintenance
Non-porous surface resists staining and odour absorption. Simply wipe clean with standard cleaning solutions or wash with pressure washers for deep cleaning. The material won't crack or become brittle with repeated washing.
Space-Efficient Nesting
When empty, crates nest inside each other, reducing storage space by up to 75%. Perfect for businesses with fluctuating storage needs or limited space for empty container storage.
Long Service Life
Impact-resistant PPC material withstands drops, knocks, and rough handling without cracking. Typical service life of 5-10 years in commercial environments, providing excellent return on investment.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How many crates can I safely stack when loaded?
A: When loaded to the maximum 15kg capacity, you can safely stack these crates up to 2 metres high (approximately 8-9 crates). The reinforced base and interlocking design ensure stability. Always ensure stacks are on level surfaces and consider using racking for heights above 2 metres.
Q: Can these crates be used outdoors?
A: Absolutely! The PPC material is UV-resistant and weather-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use. They operate reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +60°C, so they'll withstand British weather conditions year-round.
Q: How do I clean these crates?
A: Simply wipe with a damp cloth and standard cleaning solution for light cleaning. For deep cleaning, they can be pressure-washed or submerged in sanitising solutions. The non-porous surface resists staining and won't absorb odours.
Q: Do they nest when empty to save space?
A: Yes! When empty, these crates nest inside each other, reducing storage space by approximately 75%. This is perfect if you have seasonal storage needs or limited space for empty containers.
Q: What's the difference between internal and external dimensions?
A: External dimensions (298 x 398 x 230mm) are the overall size, including the walls, important for calculating shelf space and transport. Internal dimensions (264 x 364 x 228mm) show the actual usable storage space inside the crate.
Q: Can these crates be used with pallet racking systems?
A: Yes! The standardised external dimensions make them compatible with most industrial racking systems. The raised base design also allows forklift and pallet truck access for efficient handling.
