Key Features

High-Density 24-Bottle Layout

The 78×80 mm cells are optimised for standard 330 ml and 355 ml beer bottles, packing 24 units into a compact 506×366 mm footprint. This maximises shelf visibility and sales per square metre in retail cold rooms and display aisles.

Label-Safe Cell Separation

Smooth, rib-free compartment walls isolate every bottle completely. Glass-to-glass contact is eliminated and the label area is shielded from rubbing, keeping both paper and film labels in pristine condition from filler to consumer.

Integrated Ergonomic Hand Grips

Generous carry openings are moulded into both short sides, providing a comfortable, balanced grip even when the crate is fully loaded. This speeds up manual handling in bars, stores, and home-delivery operations.

Deep Nesting for Return Logistics

The tapered internal dimensions (473×335 mm) allow empty crates to nest deeply, reducing the stack height by up to 65 %. This dramatically cuts storage space and reverse transport costs during empty-crate collection loops.

Cold-Chain Toughness

Made from 100 % food-grade virgin polypropylene with an impact-modifier package, the crate stays tough in cold storage down to -20 °C and withstands repeated passes through hot crate washers without warping or fading.

Company Introduction

We are a focused moulder of returnable beer and beverage crates, serving breweries, co-packers, and distributors in over 50 countries. Our production site combines high-tonnage injection moulding with an in-house toolroom, which lets us move from design to delivery faster than industry averages. Every crate is manufactured from traceable virgin PP resin and can be supplied in any custom colour, with hot-stamped or moulded-in logos, and with optional RFID tag slots. Beyond supplying plastic, our engineers work directly with your filling-line team to verify dimensional fit on depalletisers, conveyors, and palletisers, ensuring a plug-and-play transition. Whether you need lightweight retail crates or ultra-heavy-duty warehouse versions, we offer a full range backed by technical support from first sample to final container loading.

FAQ

Q: What bottle types fit the 78×80 mm cells?

A: The crate accepts standard 330 ml and 355 ml longneck or steinie beer bottles with a body diameter up to 76 mm and a total height up to 210 mm. The 226 mm external wall height securely supports the bottle body above its centre of gravity.

Q: How do the crates nest when empty?

A: An internal taper (473×335 mm at the base vs. 506×366 mm at the top) lets one empty crate slide deep into another. Nested stacks can reduce total empty height by roughly two-thirds, which significantly cuts return-freight bills and yard space.

Q: Are the crates suitable for automatic filling lines?

A: Yes. The precise external dimensions, smooth flat base, and absence of flash are designed for uninterrupted passage through high-speed depalletisers, single-file conveyors, and palletisers. We can supply pre-production samples for a line trial on request.

Q: Can I add my brewery's branding?

A: Absolutely. Options include engraved mould inserts for a permanent embossed logo, hot-stamp foiling, or silk-screen printing. Custom RAL-matched colours are also available. The minimum order quantity for customised crates is typically 2,000 pieces.

Q: How many crates can be stacked when full?

A: With standard filled 330 ml glass bottles, the crates safely stack 5–6 layers high under static warehouse conditions. The interlocking rim-and-feet design prevents shifting during transport, and we can provide a detailed load-test certificate for your exact bottle weight.
