Metro created this unit for institutional and hospitality applications where NSF compliance and durable finishes are essential.
#@@# Load Capacity#@#
Rated for 600 pounds, the shelf handles substantial static loads across its 72" span. Facility managers can consolidate stock, reduce rack count, and maintain safety margins for bulk storage.
#@@# Corrosion Resistance#@#
The epoxy-coated gray finish protects against moisture and chemical exposure common in kitchens and hospitals. Maintenance teams can reduce replacement cycles compared to untreated wire, improving lifecycle costs.
#@@# Antimicrobial Protection#@#
Microban antimicrobial treatment inhibits microbial growth on shelf surfaces. Foodservice directors and hospital administrators can lower contamination risks and support sanitation protocols in regulated environments.
#@@# Compliance Certification#@#
NSF certification ensures suitability for food contact and storage applications. Purchasing agents for schools, universities, and healthcare facilities can document regulatory conformity during inspections.
#@@# Installation Hardware#@#
Plastic split sleeves ship with each shelf for secure placement on posts and tool-free assembly. Operations staff will experience faster setup and easy reconfiguration when layouts change.
#@@# Dimensional Footprint#@#
The 72" width and 18" depth align with common shelving standards, maximizing storage density in narrow aisles and corridors. Design teams can plan racking runs efficiently, achieving predictable capacity per linear foot.
Manufacturer-established quality since 1998 informs product engineering, combining proven wire-shelving geometry with durable coatings.
