Special offers on storage systems and shelving for schools and colleges

July 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Rapid Racking, the shelving and racking specialists, have a number of offers on classroom storage and other shelving systems useful in an educational environment available now.  Although the start of the summer holidays is just days away for some children, for many teaching staff and educational establishments, the start of the annual summer break also means the start of planning for the new academic year. As part of this process, sourcing classroom supplies, installing new equipment and carrying out maintenance and renovation work will shortly begin in earnest.

Making the job easier for purchase managers, head teachers and teachers working hard to get their classroom organized for the 2011 – 2012 academic year, Rapid Racking is a one stop shop for storage essentials including extra strong gratnell trays, canteen shelving, janitorial storage and even library shelving.

Gratnell trays are a classroom essential, perfect for allowing students to store stationary and other possessions or acting as convenient storage for lesson resources and other items such as books, folders, paper and pencils. Small and discreet, the trays can be stored in purpose built cupboards – Rapid Racking offers a choice of designs of varying capacities from mobile six jumbo tray storage cupboards to 8, 12, 16, 18 and 32 gretnall tray storage units. Both the storage cupboards and the gretnalls trays themselves are built to withstand regular and sustained use. The trays are manufactured from extra strong polypropylene and the cupboards from extra durable MDF.

Of course, a lot of work goes on behind the scenes in every educational establishment to keep things running smoothly. To that end, Rapid Racking can help with a selection of dedicated catering shelving and food storage. The firm’s heavy duty nickel chrome food grade units are triple nickel chrome plated and sealed for food protection. Other items such as Cambro shelving are designed to meet tough food and hygiene standards. The simple, boltless assembly means the units are easy to put together. Each shelf is then capable of holding 150kg of produce and is dishwasher safe as well as being heat and cold resistant from -38C to +70C.

For busy janitors and caretakers, items such as the ingenious Clean ‘N’ Dirty locker with separate compartments for work and daily wear help make day to day tasks more efficient. Grit bins, plastic cupboards, first aid cupboards, folding telescopic trucks, tool cupboards and cycle racks can also be found in the Rapid Education collection, available online at http://www.rapidracking.com
