Novameta Perforated Welded Shelving Unit 600 x 700 mm

Perforated shelving creates an organised storage space that allows air to circulate freely around stored items. The open design prevents moisture build-up, reducing the risk of spoilage and making it easier to keep ingredients and equipment dry. Each shelf is welded for strength, eliminating weak points that could sag or fail under heavy loads.

The unit stands 1800 mm high, providing vertical storage that maximises floor space in busy kitchens. Shelves measure 600 mm deep and 700 mm wide, offering a stable platform for bulk ingredients, prepared dishes or small equipment. The perforations also allow spills to drain through, simplifying cleaning and reducing slip hazards on the shelf surface.

Assembly involves positioning the unit on a level worktop or floor, then loading each shelf evenly to the stated capacity. The welded construction means no tools are required to maintain shelf spacing or alignment; shelves remain fixed at their designed height. The 120 kg load rating per shelf applies to evenly distributed weight, so heavy items should be centred rather than placed at the edges.

The entire structure is made from standardised steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of sanitisation. The perforated pattern is punched before welding, ensuring consistent hole size and spacing across every shelf. No additional coatings or treatments are applied, keeping the surface smooth and free from flaking or peeling that could contaminate stored food.

Cleaning involves wiping shelves with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then allowing them to air-dry. The perforations prevent water pooling, so drying is faster than with solid shelves. Regular inspection of welds and load distribution helps maintain the unit's capacity and safety over time.

This model is part of the Novameta standard shelving range, designed for compatibility with other units in the same series. The 600 mm depth matches common worktop depths, allowing seamless integration into existing kitchen layouts.
