Used across Agriculture, Food Distribution Logistics, Supermarket, Supply Chain & Third Party Logistics (3PL), spec'd by operations, procurement and HSE teams that handle it daily.
Typical uses
- Bulk storage and transport of produce, granular or liquid loads
- Ventilated storage of produce and breathable goods, sheds field heat and moisture
- Closed-loop / return logistics where empty space and freight matter
- Food, beverage or pharmaceutical handling, subject to application and supplier-document checks
Why operations choose the BPB-K1165VL for produce handling and storage
- 1 Airflow that protects the load
Vented walls and base move air through the whole stack, shedding field heat, moisture and respiration gases, that is what keeps potatoes, onions and other produce firm and storing for longer instead of sweating and rotting in a sealed box.
- 2 Folds flat for the back-haul
Erected it stands 780 mm; collapsed it drops to 280 mm, roughly a 2.8:1 collapse. Empties ride back at a fraction of the cube, so return-freight and off-season storage stop eating your yard and your trailer space.
- 3 A cleanable format to assess
The catalogue lists HDPE construction with no nails or splinters. Confirm food-contact documentation, chemical compatibility and the required wash temperature against your own hygiene plan before specifying it.
