Plastic Tubs – Durable and Versatile Storage Containers for All Industries

Plastic Tubs are multi-purpose, robust containers essential for general storage, bulk material handling, and transport across a vast array of Australian industries, from food service to manufacturing and maintenance. Designed for durability, these tubs offer excellent resistance to moisture, chemicals, and impact, providing a clean and lightweight alternative to heavy metal or timber containers for inventory, waste, and component storage.

From organising small parts to moving bulk consumables, reliable plastic tubs are a fundamental utility item. Verdex supplies a high-quality range of Plastic Tubs, available in various sizes and specifications (stacking, nesting, food-grade). These flexible containers are a practical solution within our comprehensive Shelving and Storage Equipment range.

Advantages of Durable Plastic Containment

Plastic Tubs provide flexibility and hygienic features that distinguish them in many operational environments:

  • Lightweight and Easy to Handle: Their plastic construction makes them significantly lighter than metal alternatives, improving manual handling safety and reducing freight costs.

  • Hygienic and Washable: Non-porous surfaces are easy to clean and sanitise, making them ideal for handling food, sensitive materials, or components that require protection from dust and contamination.

  • Nesting and Stacking Options: Many designs allow for efficient space utilisation, either by stacking securely when full or nesting inside each other when empty to save space.

 

Industry Applications

Plastic Tubs offer versatile containment solutions across various sectors and workflow stages, essential for both bulk and segregated storage. They are crucial across major Australian industries, including:

  • Food Processing and Hospitality: Used for bulk ingredient storage, portion control, and general waste containment, benefiting from their easy-clean properties.

  • Manufacturing and Production: Essential for holding and moving work-in-progress (WIP) components, bulk fasteners, and consumables along assembly lines.

  • Maintenance and Workshops: Highly practical for general component storage and organisation. For smaller, precise organisation, dedicated systems like Small Parts Bins or Spare Parts Trays, Bins & Boxes are usually preferred.

For securing and protecting large volumes of high-value parts, larger, more robust solutions are necessary, such as installing Heavy Duty Shelving or investing in lockable Heavy Duty Cabinets. Our Plastic Tubs are excellent complements to specialised systems like Workshop Parts Storage.
