Half Size Can Racks

The PVI Half Size Can Rack is built for food service operations that need organized canned goods storage in a shorter, more compact rack format. Not every kitchen has the space or inventory volume for a full-height can rack. Some operations need a lower rack that can fit under certain storage conditions, support smaller inventory levels, or provide a work surface with optional top configurations. The Half Size Can Rack answers that need while still offering many of the same core advantages as PVI’s full size can storage products.

Designed for #10 and #5 cans, the Half Size Can Rack holds six #10 cans per row, uses self-feeding inclined can slides, can be loaded from the front or rear, and includes removable shelves for easy cleaning. It is built from all aluminum, so it will not rust, and it is offered as a KD knock-down rack that ships UPS and assembles with 12 fasteners. Casters can be added at any time, and optional tops are available in stainless steel, aluminum, and poly.

For kitchens, cafeterias, healthcare facilities, schools, commissaries, churches, senior living facilities, and smaller food service operations, the Half Size Can Rack provides a practical way to organize canned ingredients without committing to a taller rack footprint.

Compact Storage for #10 and #5 Cans

#10 cans are common in food service, but not every operation needs a full-size rack to store them. The PVI Half Size Can Rack gives kitchens a more compact option for organizing canned goods while still supporting efficient access and rotation.

This is especially useful for smaller kitchens, satellite locations, prep areas, concession operations, or facilities that want canned inventory closer to the point of use. A shorter rack can fit more easily into existing storage layouts and may be easier for staff to access depending on the environment.

The rack also supports #5 can storage, making it useful for kitchens that stock multiple can sizes. With listed capacities ranging from 54 to 72 #10 cans and 72 to 96 #5 cans depending on model, the Half Size Can Rack gives operators meaningful storage capacity in a compact format.

Self-Feeding Inclined Can Slides

The Half Size Can Rack includes self-feeding inclined can slides. This feature helps cans move forward as the front cans are removed, supporting better access and improved inventory rotation.

Food service teams rely on efficient storage systems to keep production moving. When cans are stored in deep shelves or stacked in rows, older product can become buried and harder to access. Inclined slides make the process more organized by encouraging a first-in, first-out style of use.

This is helpful for reducing unnecessary searching and handling. Staff can quickly identify the product they need, pull from the front, and restock from the front or rear depending on the layout.

Load from the Front or Rear

PVI lists the Half Size Can Rack as loadable from the front or rear. This design gives kitchens more flexibility when setting up dry storage areas. Some operations may use the rack against a wall and load from the same side they pull from. Others may position it where one side is used for stocking and the other for daily access.

Front or rear loading is especially valuable when supporting inventory rotation. New product can be added behind existing product, helping staff use older cans first. That can support better inventory management and reduce the risk of product being overlooked.

Removable Shelves for Easy Cleaning

Storage equipment should be easy to clean, and PVI’s Half Size Can Rack includes shelves that remove for easy cleaning. Dry storage areas may seem low-maintenance, but they still collect dust, paper, labels, food residue, and occasional spills.

Removable shelves help staff clean the rack more thoroughly and efficiently. This supports better sanitation and helps keep storage areas looking professional. In regulated or high-volume food service environments, cleanability is an important buying factor.

All-Aluminum Construction That Will Not Rust

The Half Size Can Rack is made from all aluminum, which means it will not rust. This is important in commercial kitchens and storage rooms where equipment may be exposed to moisture, mopping, humidity, and cleaning processes.

Aluminum construction provides durability without unnecessary weight. Because the rack may be stationary or caster-equipped, a strong but manageable material is valuable. Rust resistance also helps protect long-term appearance and usability.

For food service managers, all-aluminum construction can be a strong selling point because it supports both cleanliness and durability.

KD Knock-Down Rack for Easier Shipping

The PVI Half Size Can Rack is a KD knock-down rack that ships UPS and assembles with 12 fasteners. This makes ordering and receiving the rack more convenient than handling a fully assembled freight item in many cases.

KD shipping is especially useful for dealers, distributors, and customers with limited receiving space. Once delivered, the rack can be assembled on-site and put into use.

The 12-fastener assembly design keeps setup straightforward. Food service operations need equipment that is practical to receive and deploy, not complicated to build.

Optional Tops for Added Function

One of the unique advantages of the Half Size Can Rack is the availability of optional tops in stainless steel, aluminum, and poly. These options can turn the top of the rack into a more functional surface depending on the operation’s needs.

A stainless steel top may be preferred where durability, cleanability, and a professional kitchen appearance are priorities. An aluminum top may provide a lightweight, rust-resistant option. A poly top may be useful in certain prep or storage workflows where a non-metal surface is preferred.

This makes the Half Size Can Rack more versatile than a basic can storage unit. In smaller kitchens, every piece of equipment needs to work harder. A compact can rack with an optional top can provide storage below and a usable surface above.

Casters Can Be Added at Any Time

PVI notes that casters can be added at any time. The caster setup includes 6″ x 2″ casters with two rigid and two swivel. This allows the rack to be configured as either stationary or mobile depending on the kitchen’s needs.

A stationary rack may be ideal for fixed dry storage areas. A caster-equipped rack may be better when staff need to move the rack for cleaning, restocking, layout changes, or access to other equipment.

The ability to add casters later is valuable because kitchen workflows can change. A rack that begins as stationary can be upgraded if mobility becomes important.

Capacity and Model Options

PVI lists several Half Size Can Rack models. Capacities include 54 #10 cans and 72 #5 cans on the smaller models, and 72 #10 cans and 96 #5 cans on the larger models. Some models include casters, while others are listed without casters. Heights vary depending on configuration.

This range lets buyers select the best fit for their storage area. A shorter model may be useful under certain layout conditions, while a taller caster-equipped version may support more flexible movement.

Better Organization in Smaller Spaces

The Half Size Can Rack is a smart solution for kitchens that need better organization but have limited space. It uses vertical storage efficiently, keeps cans accessible, and supports product rotation. Compared with standard shelving, the inclined can slide design provides more purpose-built storage for canned goods.

This can help reduce clutter, improve dry storage appearance, and make it easier for staff to locate ingredients quickly.

The PVI Half Size Can Rack is ideal for:

Smaller commercial kitchens
School cafeterias
Healthcare kitchens
Senior living food service
Church kitchens
Concession operations
Satellite kitchens
Prep areas
Dry storage rooms
Commissary support areas
Restaurants and cafes
Institutional kitchens

Any operation that uses #10 or #5 cans but does not need a full-height can rack can benefit from this compact storage solution.
