Focus On Totes and Containers

By Staff -- Modern Materials Handling, 10/1/2005

Versatile containers

Ergonomic carrying handles are designed for safer lifting of distribution containers. Reinforced tie holes come standard to minimize lid damage. A multi-fingered lid design provides tamper-resistant security for the containers. A bottom surface featuring a gripping surface ensures a tight hold when containers are conveyed. Label areas featuring textured surfaces offer simplified label removal.

Durable totes

A family of multifunctional, attached lid, nestable, plastic containers is suited to distribution of retail goods including grocery dry goods, perishables, hardware and clothing. Heavy-gauge plastic construction is highly durable. These returnable containers are said to cost retailers less than disposable corrugated containers in the right applications. Molded-in hinges reduce cost, increase durability, and make repair and recycling easier.
