Poly Box Storage Racks

The PVI Poly Box Storage Rack is designed for food service operations that need a cleaner, more organized way to store and transport poly food boxes. Commercial kitchens, commissaries, bakeries, schools, healthcare food service departments, senior living kitchens, correctional facilities, restaurants, and catering operations all rely on food boxes for storage, prep, holding, transport, and ingredient organization. When those boxes are stacked randomly or stored on generic shelves, they can become hard to access, difficult to rotate, and inconvenient to move.

PVI Poly Box Storage Racks are built to organize, store, and transport foods in 18″ x 26″ or 18″ x 13″ poly food boxes manufactured by Cambro®, Carlisle®, Continental®, or Rubbermaid®. The rack uses 1½″ wide slides, includes 5″ swivel casters, and is made from all aluminum so it will not rust. It is available as a KD knock-down rack that ships UPS in one box and assembles with 12 fasteners, or as a welded rack with reinforced gusset corners that ships LTL.

For operations that use poly food boxes every day, a dedicated rack can improve organization, protect product, reduce unnecessary handling, and support better kitchen workflow.

Built for Poly Food Box Storage and Transport

Poly food boxes are common in commercial food service because they are versatile. They may be used for prepared ingredients, baked goods, proteins, produce, dough, sauces, packaged items, or batch-prepped foods. However, their usefulness depends on how well they are stored and moved.

When poly boxes are stacked directly on top of each other, staff may need to lift multiple boxes to reach one item. That slows down production and can increase handling. A rack with individual slides makes each box more accessible.

The PVI Poly Box Storage Rack gives boxes a dedicated vertical storage system. Staff can slide boxes in and out without disturbing the entire stack. This makes it easier to organize product by type, production date, storage zone, or menu category.

Holds 18″ x 26″ or 18″ x 13″ Poly Food Boxes

The rack is designed for 18″ x 26″ or 18″ x 13″ poly food boxes. These are common food box sizes used in many kitchens. PVI specifically notes compatibility with poly food boxes manufactured by Cambro®, Carlisle®, Continental®, or Rubbermaid®.

That compatibility is important because many kitchens already have existing food boxes from those brands. A rack that works with commonly used boxes allows operators to improve storage without replacing their containers.

The ability to hold both full-size and half-size style boxes also gives operations more flexibility. Some kitchens may use larger boxes for bulk prep or storage, while smaller boxes may be used for ingredients, toppings, or smaller production batches.

1½″ Wide Slides

PVI Poly Box Storage Racks use 1½″ wide slides. These slides provide a stable support surface for food boxes while keeping them separated for easy access.

A strong slide design is important because poly boxes can become heavy when filled. Ingredients, prepared foods, dough, sauces, produce, and proteins can all add weight. The slide system needs to support these loads while allowing staff to load and unload boxes smoothly.

The 1½″ slide width helps create dependable support for everyday use.

All-Aluminum Construction That Will Not Rust

The rack is made from all aluminum, which means it will not rust. That is a major advantage in food service environments where equipment is exposed to moisture, cleaning, refrigeration, and daily use.

Poly food box racks may be used in dry storage, prep areas, walk-in coolers, bakeries, commissaries, or production kitchens. In all of these environments, rust-resistant aluminum helps maintain a cleaner appearance and better long-term function.

Aluminum also gives the rack a practical balance of strength and manageable weight. It is durable enough for commercial use while remaining mobile and easy to handle.

5″ Swivel Casters for Mobility

The rack includes 5″ swivel casters. Mobility is one of the key benefits of a poly box storage rack. Instead of carrying boxes one at a time or moving stacks by hand, staff can move multiple boxes together.

Swivel casters help the rack maneuver through tight kitchen spaces, storage rooms, coolers, prep areas, and production zones. This is especially useful in operations where food boxes move between storage and prep frequently.

Optional locking casters, heavy-duty swivel casters, and heavy-duty locking casters are also available. Locking casters can help secure the rack during loading, unloading, or stationary storage. Heavy-duty caster options can be useful for operations with heavier loads or more frequent movement.

KD Knock-Down Rack Option

The KD Poly Box Storage Rack ships UPS in one box and assembles with 12 fasteners. This makes shipping and receiving more convenient for many customers and dealers.

KD construction is especially useful for equipment that would otherwise be bulky to ship fully assembled. Once assembled, the rack provides the storage and transport function needed in the kitchen.

For customers who want efficient delivery and straightforward assembly, the KD version is a practical choice.

All-Welded Rack Option

The all-welded version includes reinforced gusset corners and ships LTL. This option is ideal for operations that prefer a fully welded rack with added structural reinforcement.

Reinforced gusset corners help strengthen the rack at important connection points. In busy commercial kitchens, racks are moved, bumped, loaded, unloaded, and cleaned regularly. Welded construction can provide added confidence for high-use environments.

For commissaries, institutional kitchens, and high-volume operations, the welded version may be the preferred choice.

Multiple Shelf Spacing and Capacity Options

PVI lists Poly Box Storage Rack models with 4″, 7″, and 10″ shelf spacing. The 4″ spacing models hold 14 boxes, the 7″ spacing models hold 7 boxes, and the 10″ spacing models hold 6 boxes.

This gives operators flexibility based on the height of the food boxes and products being stored. A tighter 4″ spacing option maximizes capacity for lower-profile boxes or contents. A 7″ or 10″ spacing option provides additional clearance for taller boxes, lids, or products that need more space.

Choosing the right spacing depends on the containers used in the operation and how the boxes are loaded.

Supports Better Food Storage Workflow

A dedicated poly box rack can improve food storage workflow in several ways. It helps organize containers, makes boxes easier to access, improves mobility, and reduces the need to stack and unstack heavy containers.

This is useful in prep operations where ingredients need to be pulled quickly. It is also useful in walk-in coolers where space is limited and organization matters. In commissary settings, the rack can help move product between production, storage, and transport zones.

By giving each box its own slide position, the rack supports cleaner handling and better visibility.
