Modular Systems B18/42 4-Tier Coolroom Shelving 1067x457x1880mm | Black Plasticised
[MODULAR_SYSTEMS_MSG]
Optimise vertical storage capacity in compact cold rooms, prevent rust and corrosion in humid washrooms, and maintain strict hygiene compliance across your back-of-house storage zones with the Modular Systems B18/36 Four-Tier Commercial Shelving Unit. Purpose-engineered for Australian commercial coolrooms, walk-in freezers, cafe dry pantries, scullery pot rooms, hospital supply stores, and retail backrooms, this 915 mm wide x 457 mm deep x 1880 mm high four-tier storage rack combines a 150 kg evenly distributed load rating per shelf (600 kg total system capacity) with a heavy-duty black plasticised protective finish built to endure sub-zero temperatures and high moisture.
Standard chrome-plated wire racks peel, pit, and rust rapidly when exposed to condensation, saltwater brine, and sub-zero temperatures inside commercial walk-in freezers and humid scullery areas. The Modular Systems B18/36 features a thick, non-porous black plasticised polymer coating over steel shelves and upright posts. This resilient protective barrier seals out moisture, food acids, and sanitising chemicals, preventing rust contamination and satisfying Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) Standard 3.2.2 Food Safety Practices and local council health department requirements.
Bulk dry ingredients, heavy boxed proteins, 20-litre oil drums, and stacked gastronorm tubs require dependable structural support without shelf deflection. Each of the four ventilated wire shelves is engineered to support up to 150 kg of evenly distributed weight, providing a combined storage capacity of 600 kg per bay within a space-saving 915 mm width ideal for tighter coolroom walls. The open-wire grid design promotes unobstructed vertical airflow around chilled and frozen stock—accelerating coolroom temperature recovery—while allowing overhead sprinkler water and light to pass freely through every tier.
Container heights vary constantly across seasonal menus and bulk deliveries. The B18/36 utilizes easily adjustable tapered corner lock clips that snap onto numbered post grooves at precise increments without requiring spanners, bolts, or special tools. Kitchen staff can raise or lower any shelf tier in minutes to fit tall stockpots or stack shallow ingredient crates. As your storage requirements grow, the modular system accepts extra add-on shelves, alternative 910 mm or 2184 mm post heights, and optional heavy-duty swivel castors (available with or without wheel brakes) sold separately.
Supplied standard with four adjustable non-marking bullet levelling feet to compensate for sloped coolroom and washroom drainage floors, the Modular Systems B18/36 ships flat-packed for economical freight and rapid assembly.(Note: Additional shelves, alternative post heights, and castors are optional accessories not included in the base 4-tier kit). The unit is backed by a dependable 2 Years Commercial Parts-Only Warranty across Australia.

To maintain food-safe hygiene, preserve the black plasticised coating, and ensure long-term structural integrity:
Routine Sanitisation: Wipe down the black plasticised wire shelves and posts regularly using warm water, a mild food-safe neutral detergent or sanitiser, and a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry.
Protect the Plasticised Coating: Never use steel wool, sharp metal scrapers, or harsh abrasive scouring pads, as gouging through the outer black plasticised layer can expose the internal steel core to coolroom moisture.
Spill & Brine Management: Immediately wipe up acidic marinades, meat blood, dairy spills, or saltwater brine to maintain sanitary conditions and comply with local council food safety inspections.
Corner Clip & Load Inspection: Periodically check that all four tapered corner lock clips on each shelf are seated evenly in matching post grooves and verify that heavy bulk items are distributed evenly across the shelf span rather than concentrated in a single point.
The Modular Systems B18/36 is engineered for walk-in freezers, coolrooms, dry stores, and commercial prep rooms:
Floor Levelling: Assemble the four posts with the supplied threaded bullet feet. Once positioned inside the coolroom or pantry, turn the bullet feet until all four posts sit firmly on the floor without rocking—especially important on floors sloped toward floor drains.
FSANZ Off-Floor Clearance: Position the bottom shelf at least 150 mm above the floor to allow effortless mopping and sweeping underneath and to satisfy Australian food hygiene standards requiring food storage off the floor.
Coolroom Airflow Spacing: Leave at least 50 mm of clearance between the shelving unit and insulated coolroom wall panels, and keep top stock clear of evaporator blower fans to ensure unrestricted cold-air circulation.
Even Weight Distribution: Place the heaviest cartons and bulk containers on the lower tiers to keep the centre of gravity low, respecting the 150 kg maximum distributed load rating per shelf.

Is the Modular Systems B18/36 shelving safe to use inside walk-in freezers and humid coolrooms?
Yes. Both the wire shelves and upright posts feature a heavy-duty black plasticised polymer finish engineered specifically to resist moisture, condensation, and sub-zero temperatures without rusting or peeling.
How much weight can each shelf support?
Each individual tier is rated to support up to 150 kg of evenly distributed weight, giving the complete 4-tier unit a total storage capacity of 600 kg.
Do I need tools to assemble the shelving or adjust shelf heights?
No. The shelving system uses tapered plastic corner lock clips that snap securely into numbered grooves along the posts. As the shelf slides down over the clips, weight locks it firmly in place—allowing tool-free assembly and quick height adjustments whenever your storage needs change.
Are castors or extra shelves included with this unit?
The B18/36 comes standard with four posts, four shelves, corner lock clips, and four adjustable bullet levelling feet. Extra shelves, alternative 910 mm or 2184 mm posts, and swivel castors (with or without brakes) are available as optional accessories at additional cost.
Does this shelving meet Australian health department regulations?
Yes. Its smooth, non-porous black plasticised finish and open-wire ventilated design prevent moisture pooling, resist corrosion, and clean easily, meeting local council health department standards and FSANZ food safety guidelines.
What warranty is provided with the Modular Systems B18/36?
The shelving unit is backed by a 2 Years Commercial Parts-Only Warranty across Australia.
