Robust Storage Shelves for Diverse Uses

Welcome to XXLinox, your specialist in professional storage shelves and racks. We understand the importance of efficiently organizing your storage space. Therefore, we offer a wide range of storage shelves suitable for various purposes. Whether it's storing raw materials, machinery, or finished products, you'll find the right stainless steel shelves with us. To ensure you make the right choice, here are seven important points to consider:

Key Points When Buying Storage Shelves

• Opt for professional storage shelves: A storage area should always be organized as efficiently as possible. Stainless steel shelves are therefore essential. At XXLinox, you'll find high-quality storage shelves suitable for various applications and storage needs. All our shelves and racks are available in two types of stainless steel, namely AISI 430 or AISI 304 (excellent quality for laboratories, hospitals, etc.).
• Consider weight-bearing capacity and capacity: When purchasing storage shelves, it's important to consider weight-bearing capacity and capacity. The shelf should be suitable for the weight and size of the products you intend to store. If you require specific weight-bearing capacity, you can contact our specialists who are happy to discuss the options with you.
• Take your storage space's size into account: When choosing storage shelves, it's important to consider the size of your storage area and the expected quantity of products to be stored. XXLinox offers storage shelves in various sizes and racks with different levels.
• Think about adjustable shelf levels: Opting for storage shelves with adjustable shelf levels allows you to customize the spaces between the shelves. This is useful when you're limited by tight spaces or want to store products of different sizes. At XXLinox, we offer storage shelves with adjustable shelf levels in our range. We also provide perforated shelf levels.
• Hygiene and safety matter: Hygiene and safety are crucial aspects when storing products on shelves. Items on the shelves should be distributed across the racks according to their weight, and products should never be placed on the ground. At XXLinox, we offer professional storage shelves that comply with HACCP requirements and are suitable for use in dry and refrigerated warehouses.
• Enhance storage with practical storage bins: Efficiently organizing storage shelves becomes even easier with the right storage bins. At XXLinox, we have various multifunctional storage bins in our range that can be securely closed and contribute to a neat and clean storage space.
• Mobility as an advantage: Some racks come equipped with wheels or casters for easy movement. This can be useful when redesigning your gastronomy establishment or when using racks at different locations. However, keep in mind that these racks can be heavy, so you need to be cautious while moving them to prevent damage or injury.

Efficiently Organizing Storage Shelves

Storage shelves are used for storing materials and various kitchen equipment. Typically, shelves consist of a combination of metal, wood, or plastic. They come in all desired dimensions, with some specifically designed for smaller measurements. There are also storage shelves for larger items such as kitchen equipment.

Efficiently organizing storage racks becomes even simpler with the use of the right containers. Our Gastronorm containers are multifunctional and therefore useful for shelves as well. They are perfect for storage shelves as GN containers can be well sealed, ensuring that the shelves remain clean and germ-free. Remember to distribute weight evenly. Heavy and specific foods are best placed at the bottom of the shelf, while light and dry foods should be on the upper shelves. Lastly, products and materials frequently used or particularly heavy should be placed in easily accessible spots. Note that some foods can contaminate others, so they should be stored separately.

Determining the Right Size of the Shelf

Aside from weight-bearing capacity, the size of the shelf is also important. The size of the shelf isn't only determined by the current quantity you wish to store. Consider the (future) amount you will store as well. This way, you can better estimate the size of the cabinet or the number of shelves required. The number of shelf levels per cabinet naturally depends on the size of the products you intend to store. It's important to have sufficient space between the shelves in the cabinet to easily accommodate the products. Gastronomy businesses often can't accommodate all sizes of storage shelves in their operation. Restaurant managers seeking flexibility can rely on storage furniture with wheels. Also, remember to choose adjustable shelves. This way, you can create the required spaces between the boards and make the arrangement of different storage shelves more flexible. This is especially useful when you're restricted due to limited space conditions. Finally, don't forget to consider the number of shelves you'll need for your requirements.

Storage shelves might be unsuitable for certain places, such as spaces under stairs. In such tight spaces, we recommend opting for stainless steel wall shelves. We have a dedicated category for this type of furniture.
