How to choose the right commercial shelving

Choosing the right shelving for your business is one of the most important decisions to be made. It will affect your food safety, productivity, longevity of your produce plus impact your bottom line. Before we look at the differences between Cambro’s three different shelving options, let’s look at what all Cambro shelving offer.

Flexibility - Multiple configuration options

  All three shelving lines can be configured to fit any size area.   Removable shelf plates increase food safety and reduce cross-contamination.   Shared post design offers cost savings - 2 units can attach using a common post with no loss of weight bearing capacity for better space utilization.   Shelving configurations include - single unit, add on unit, corner and U shape unit
