A common trait throughout the range of European stackable plastic boxes is the standard, 600 x 400mm and 400 x 300mm sizes. These particular European standard sized footprints came about due to the requirements of European railway transport in the 1960's. Wooden pallets were required to specific dimensions to aid in loading railroad cars more efficiently and so the Euro standard 800 x 600mm and 1200 x 800mm pallets were devised. Since then, with standard sized Euro plastic pallets being used throughout Europe the specifications for Euro stacking containers was decided upon to utilise all of the pallet space and so 600 x 400mm, 400 x 300mm, 800 x 600mm and 200 x 300mm plastic containers have now become common place.

Our entire range of Euro stacking containers are manufactured from food grade plastic materials including polypropylene and polyethylene; and are designed to be as hygienic as possible, making light work of cleaning. To complement our wealth of stackable plastic boxes we also provide several plastic dollies and Euro plastic pallets to suit these 600x400 plastic containers, allowing safe and secure handling of large stacks of Euro plastic crates.

Introducing the HYGIBOX....a trademarked product...

The HYGIBOX (tm) range of plastic stacking containers is exclusive to Fletcher European Containers Ltd and the word Hygibox is trade marked. Designed and developed by ourselves, we have engineered these hygienic storage containers to provide the food manufacturing and food processing, pharmaceutical and healthcare, meat processing and bakery industries with a stackable plastic box that is perfect for use within high care environments and clean rooms. Unlike standard plastic stackable containers the HYGIBOX is not injection moulded, rather it is manufactured via a rotational moulding process.

Due to being produced using a stress-free manufacturing process, these colour coded plastic containers do not deteriorate as quickly and prove to be a much more efficient plastic container for use within high risk environments. As standard Euro plastic boxes age their construction weakens and can crack, the degradation of which causes the plastic crates to create swarf (flakes) that can if unchecked, cause contamination to food products resulting in product recalls. The HYGIBOX however, due to its stress-free construction is a lot more durable and the risk of flaking or swarfing with these Euro containers is eliminated.

The HYGIBOX is a plastic stacking container with a dirt trap and crevice free design which enables them to be effortlessly cleaned. Perfect for storing or handling high risk products, such as meat, fish and poultry the HYGIBOX plastic stackable box range is available in a huge variety of colours, allowing for efficient colour coding and product separation. Drop on plastic lids are available for these 600x400 plastic containers and the entire range is also compatible with our Euro plastic dollies.
