Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus Add-On Unit 4 Tier Vented 1630x870x460mm

The Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus Add-On Unit is a four-tier plastic shelving unit designed to extend an existing Camshelving Basics Plus stationary run. It is not a standalone unit — it connects directly to a compatible stationary unit and shares one post kit between them, making efficient use of floor space and keeping the overall structure stable. The vented shelf plates allow air to circulate freely, which is particularly useful in refrigerated and freezer environments where airflow affects temperature consistency.

In practice, these units are a straightforward and reliable solution for dry stores, walk-in fridges, and freezer rooms where plastic shelving outperforms steel — there is no risk of rust or corrosion, and the material holds up well under the damp, cold conditions that cause painted steel to deteriorate over time. The shelving can be configured in a straight line, L-shape, or T-shape, which gives some flexibility when fitting out an awkward storage room or maximising a corner space.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

• Vented shelf plates support airflow in refrigerated and freezer storage
• Shelf plates are removable and dishwasher safe, making deep cleaning straightforward
• Shelf heights are adjustable without tools, allowing the unit to adapt as stock profiles change
• Plastic construction eliminates rust and corrosion concerns in wet or cold environments
• Add-on configuration shares a post with the adjoining unit, maintaining full weight-bearing capacity

This unit requires an existing Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus stationary unit to connect to — it cannot be used in isolation. If you are starting a new shelving run from scratch, you will need at least one stationary unit first. For larger storage areas or higher-volume operations requiring greater shelf depth or load capacity, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty shelving system would be a better long-term fit.

This add-on unit suits operations that are already running Camshelving Basics Plus and need to extend capacity, or those planning a new installation and building out from a stationary starter unit. It works equally well in small prep kitchens, back-of-house dry stores, and temperature-controlled rooms.

If you are unsure whether this unit is compatible with your existing shelving or how many units your storage space requires, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
