This 8.5-gallon (35 quart) container is built to handle the rigors of bulk ingredient storage, such as 40lb loads of flour or grain. The polypropylene construction is approximately 25% thicker than standard retail bins, allowing the unit to flex slightly under weight rather than cracking. A reinforced bottom rim provides additional support, ensuring the bin remains stable even when stacked three-high under full capacity.
The opaque material provides a layer of protection for light-sensitive ingredients, though it requires labeling for quick inventory tracking. Features include a design that is resistant to industrial sanitizers and high-acid foods. It is important to note that the lid for this modular system is often sold separately; for a secure seal, the compatible 9G78 or 9G77 lids are recommended. The industrial dimensions mean this bin is best suited for deep shelving rather than standard 12-inch kitchen pantries.
- Built to handle heavy weight without bowing.
- Materials are chosen for chemical neutrality and impact resistance.
- NSF certified for food contact safety.
For a much larger storage capacity, you may want to look at the 12.5-gallon Carlisle model.
