- Check weight capacity per shelf—heavy equipment needs 200kg+ ratings.
Material and Environment

How Commercial Multi Racks Work
Multi racks operate on a brilliant yet simple principle—maximising vertical space with adjustable shelving. The robust frame comprises four corner posts with grooved slots at regular intervals (typically 2.5cm apart), allowing you to position shelves exactly where needed. Assembly is straightforward—no special tools required! The shelves clip or slide into position, with reinforced corner collars that distribute weight evenly. Most professional models feature levelling feet to handle uneven floors, while some include castors for mobility. What makes these racks special is their modular nature—add shelves, divide sections, or even join multiple units to create a storage system perfectly tailored to your kitchen's unique needs.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Multi Racks
To get the most from your multi racks, position your heaviest items on lower shelves for stability, and label each section to maintain organisation during busy service. Clean regularly with a damp cloth and mild detergent—avoid abrasive cleaners on chrome finishes. For mobile racks, lock the castors when stationary, and consider clear shelf liners for holding smaller items. Review your setup quarterly and adjust shelf heights as your inventory changes to maintain optimal space efficiency throughout the year.
