Shelves, Inserts & Racks for Professional Gastronomy

This collection features shelves, perforated panels, and specialised racks designed for commercial kitchens, dishwashing areas, pizzerias, snack bars, hotels, and catering businesses. These products prioritise durability, hygiene, and easy cleaning, fitting seamlessly into modular shelving systems, trolleys, and work islands.

Purpose of This Category

Shelves and racks in the CHR sector (Catering, Hospitality, Restaurant) primarily serve for organised storage and quick access to dishes, GN containers, supplies, and work materials. They are suitable for dry storage as well as high-humidity zones and cold rooms. Perforated panels ensure ventilation and rapid drying after cleaning, while solid shelves provide a flat surface for small items or packaging.

Typical Applications in Gastronomy

Examples of specific uses include:

• Dishwashing area: perforated racks for quick draining of dishes and plate stacks (e.g. tray holder for 18/26 plates 380×380×750 mm).
• Cold rooms & goods receiving: easy-to-clean polypropylene or aluminium shelves that withstand moisture and temperature fluctuations.
• Service and mise-en-place areas: aluminium or PP racks for mobile work and fast restocking.
• Pizzerias & kebab shops: sturdy perforated panels with high load capacity for heavy ingredient containers and dough trays.

Key Purchase Criteria

Several technical factors are crucial when selecting shelves: material (polypropylene, aluminium, stainless steel), load capacity per shelf (e.g. 250 kg for robust perforated panels), dimensions (standard sizes like 970×400, 1270×500, or 1570×500 mm), degree of perforation, and ease of cleaning. Other considerations include compatibility with existing shelving systems (plug-in systems, shelf grid), height of aluminium feet, removability of racks, and temperature resistance for cold rooms.

Variants and Designs

Within this category, you will typically find:

• Perforated panels – for ventilation and hygiene (e.g. 1270×400 mm).
• Solid polypropylene racks – durable, lightweight, and chemical-resistant.
• Aluminium shelves – long-lasting and suitable for heavy loads (e.g. 1800 mm lengths).
• Specialised racks such as tray holders or removable, washable shelves for dishwashing areas.

Practical Benefits in Daily Work

Well-chosen racks reduce travel time, improve work organisation, and enhance safety through defined storage zones. Perforated shelves prevent standing water, reduce corrosion risks, and speed up drying times after cleaning. Aluminium feet and plug-in profiles facilitate height adjustment and quick reconfiguration of shelves for seasonal catering needs or event changes.

For planners and operators, it is advisable to combine shelves according to their application: lockable solid shelves for dry goods, perforated shelves in dishwashing and food zones, and reinforced aluminium shelves where higher point loads occur. The formats and materials shown here support modular expansion and hygienic workflows without complex retrofitting.

If you have specific requirements—such as special load capacities, custom dimensions for pizza or refrigeration integration, or compatible inserts for existing shelving systems—the product descriptions will assist in selecting the right shelf.
