Plastic crates come in different types and sizes. A feature of plastic crates is that they have perforated walls and sometimes also a perforated bottom. This is unlike plastic bins that are closed. So you can immediately see what they contain. In addition the openings in the walls and in the bottom ensure good ventilation. Plastic crates are for this reason often used in the industrial food sector, textile sector, catering trade and in bakeries. A plastic crate is lightweight and yet strong and stable. A plastic crate is also easy to clean and very hygienic.
