Plastic Parts Bins

Stack and Hang Bins: As the name suggests, these versatile parts bins can be stacked on top of each other or hung on a wall or panel system, offering flexibility in space utilization. They're great for storing a wide variety of parts and with an open hopper front, parts can be easily accessed whether the bins are stacked or hanging. Lids, windows, dividers and labels help organize and identify parts quickly and do not affect the bins ability to stack or hang. These stacking parts bins are the most popular style of bins for small-to-medium sized parts.

Large Stacking Bins: Our large stacking parts bins start at 24" deep (front to back) and go all the way up to 42" deep. The widths and heights vary, but these large stacking bins are extremely heavy-duty and intended to hold big, bulky parts. Many of our large stacking parts bins accommodate dividers, windows and labels, and are resistant to oil, chemicals and extreme temperatures.

Nesting Shelf Bins: Nesting shelf bins are perfect when stackability is not required, and a more economical option is desired. Since they don't stack, they don't have reinforced walls, requiring less material to manufacture and saving you costs. When not in use, these parts bins nest inside one another for minimal space consumption while not in use. With 7 divider slots going across them, shelf bins are designed to hold small and medium sized parts of all kinds. With depths of 12", 18" and 24", these parts bins were designed to sit perfectly on the most common sized shelving units.

Dividable Grid Containers: These containers provide the ultimate flexibility in storage & organization. Each container can be divided into grids using length and width dividers, allowing for custom sized compartments to keep parts together but separate from others. They're perfect for storing various parts in a single, easy-to-locate place.

Louvered Racks, Rails, and Panel Systems with Bins: These systems make use of vertical space, freeing up floor and counter space. The louvered design allows parts bins to hang, and the bins can easily be moved or reorganized as needed. This flexibility is ideal for environments where storage needs can change regularly. Add a set of wheels and you have a mobile parts bin storage system that can move around the shop with you.

Shelving Units with Storage Bins (Shelf Bin Organizers): These comprehensive storage solutions combine industrial strength steel or wire shelving with parts bins designed to fit the exact depth of the shelves, maximizing parts storage capabilities. The shelving is available in various depths (12" deep - 36" deep), widths (36" wide - 72" wide) and heights (39" high - 86" high). The parts bins can be arranged on the shelves to suit specific requirements. This combination creates an organized, accessible, and efficient storage system that is easy to maintain.

Plastic Parts Bins Features

Plastic parts bins are commonly used for storage in various settings, ranging from industrial environments to retail spaces and healthcare facilities. Plastic storage bins offer several advantages for parts storage, below are some characteristics that make these plastic bins ideal for parts storage.

Heavy-Duty: Plastic parts bins for storage are made from polypropylene, a robust and durable plastic that can withstand considerable wear and tear. Polypropylene is known for its strength and stability, ensuring that parts bins hold up under the weight of heavy parts and/or materials. Reliability of parts storage is critical in demanding environments like hospitals, factories and retail backrooms.

Economical: One of the main advantages of plastic parts bins is their cost-effectiveness. They are not only affordable initially, they also offer cost savings over time. Their durability means they need to be replaced less frequently than other solutions, reducing your total cost of ownership and providing a higher return on investment.

Optional Dividers and Lids: For improved organization, plastic parts bins can often accommodate dividers and/or lids. These dividers allow for better sorting and segregation of items within the same bin, essential in settings like healthcare where quick identification of supplies can impact patient care, or in retail where efficient restocking can enhance customer service. Optional lids offer an additional layer of protection for the parts inside of the bins, safeguarding them from external factors like dust or moisture. This is particularly valuable in healthcare settings, where keeping supplies sanitary is paramount, or in industrial environments that may be exposed to the elements.

Various Sizes: Parts Bins for Storage are available in various sizes, ensuring flexibility in storing items of different dimensions, making them suitable for diverse needs in industrial, retail, or healthcare settings. Larger bins can handle bulkier items, while smaller ones are ideal for components or parts.

Easy to Wash: Given that polypropylene is resistant to many chemicals, these bins can be washed and sanitized using a wide range of cleaning agents. This characteristic is particularly crucial in healthcare settings, where maintaining hygiene is of the utmost importance. It's also beneficial in retail and industrial environments to keep the bins clean and attractive for longer.

Resistant to Rust and Bacteria: Parts bins don't rust, which is a significant advantage in industrial environments or any location with high humidity. Additionally, their resistance to bacterial growth promotes a safer storage solution, especially vital in healthcare environments where infection control is a top priority.

Parts Bins Applications

Automotive Repair Shops:In an auto repair shop, plastic parts bins are used to store a wide range of small parts like screws, nuts, bolts, washers, and clips. Using stack and hang parts bins, mechanics can hang these bins on louvered panels or stack them on shelves for easy access. The open hopper front allows them to quickly grab the required part, helping to expedite repairs and reduce downtime.

Manufacturing Facilities: Manufacturing plants deal with numerous small parts, components and fasteners. Parts bins are invaluable for organizing these items on assembly lines or workstations. By hanging these bins near workstations, employees can access parts swiftly, reducing assembly time and minimizing errors.

Retail Stores: Retailers utilize parts bins for inventory management. These bins can be hung from wall mounted panels or stacked on shelves in stockrooms. Retailers can use them to store small items like batteries, screws, and clips, making restocking more efficient and keeping the storage area tidy.

Healthcare Facilities:Hospitals, doctors and dentists utilize parts bins to organize medical supplies and instruments. These bins can be wall-mounted in examination rooms or labs to ensure quick access to sterile equipment, gloves, and disposable items.
