In the United States, such a crate is called a utility box - it's hard to translate, so let's stick with storage box or stacking crate. Such injection-molded boxes are available in many places and we have opted for an upmarket quality with a sturdy frame construction and a decent wall thickness, which makes not only the base but the entire box extremely dimensionally stable. In any case, you can load just about anything into them, as the crates are also resistant to most acids and oils. Food can also be stored particularly well in the stacking crates. They are also stackable, even lengthwise and crosswise; in other words, the smaller formats can also be stacked crosswise and two next to each other on top of the larger ones.
The stacking height is lower than the external dimensions because the lowered base disappears when stacked in the crate underneath.
The internal dimensions, weights and volumes of the crates are (h x w x l), whereby the volumes in liters correspond to the approximate load capacity in kilograms:
300 x 400 mm:
- Stacking height 110 mm: 115 x 266 x 366 mm, 690 g, 11 liters
- Stacking height 227 mm: 232 x 266 x 366 mm, 950 g, 23 liters
We also offer a yellow lid with hinge and lock for these stacking boxes. Of course, the crates can also be stacked with a lid.
