How do I choose the right size dunnage rack for my storeroom?

Start by measuring your available floor space and considering the footprint of the goods you typically store — sacks, catering tins, bulk containers, and so on. It is generally better to match the rack depth and length closely to the load rather than going significantly larger or smaller. If you are fitting multiple racks into a storeroom, leaving adequate aisle space for safe access and cleaning is worth factoring in at the same time.

Are these racks suitable for use inside a walk-in cold room?

Yes, wire dunnage racks are commonly used in cold and chiller room environments. The open construction is well suited to refrigerated storage because it does not impede the circulation of cold air around stored goods, which is important for maintaining consistent temperatures and avoiding warm spots.

What kind of loads can dunnage racks typically handle?

Dunnage racks are designed for bulk dry goods, catering-size tins, sacks of flour or rice, and similar heavy storeroom items. If you are planning to store unusually heavy or concentrated loads — such as full catering drums or dense pallet-equivalent quantities — it is worth confirming the load capacity of the specific rack size you intend to use before ordering.

Product Description

Dunnage racks are low-profile storage platforms designed to keep bulk goods, sacks, and heavy containers raised off the floor. The EAIS Armour range uses an open wire construction on a three-sided stability frame, providing a firm, level base whilst allowing air to circulate freely underneath and around stored items.

In busy commercial kitchens and storerooms, keeping floor-level stock properly elevated is a basic requirement of food hygiene regulations. Dunnage racks make routine cleaning far more straightforward — a mop or floor scrubber can pass underneath without needing to move heavy loads — and they help prevent moisture-related deterioration of packaging and produce. The open wire deck also means any spills or condensation drain away rather than pooling beneath goods.

Practical benefits for kitchen operations include:

Raises stock clear of the floor to support hygiene compliance
Open wire deck improves airflow and reduces condensation build-up
Three-sided frame provides lateral stability for heavy or bulky loads
Available in a range of lengths and depths to suit different storeroom layouts
Straightforward to clean around and underneath during routine hygiene passes

These racks require no installation and no power supply — they simply sit on the floor. The main practical consideration is matching the rack dimensions to your available floor space and the typical load you intend to store. A rack that is too narrow for the goods being placed on it is a safety risk, so it is worth thinking through your most common use cases before ordering. The range covers several depth and length options, which gives reasonable flexibility across different storeroom configurations.

Dunnage racks of this type are well suited to dry stores, walk-in cold rooms, and general storeroom use in catering operations of most sizes, from small independent kitchens through to contract catering and institutional sites. If you regularly store very heavy pallet-quantity loads, it is worth confirming that the rack specification matches your load requirements before ordering.

If you are unsure which size or combination of racks best fits your storage layout, we are happy to talk it through.
