Vented bins and crates for the Burdekin
The Burdekin is one of Queensland's major irrigated farming districts, built on sugar cane and a growing horticulture sector watered from the Burdekin River. We deliver vented food-grade bins and stack-and-nest crates for the region's growers, packers and cold stores.
Airflow for the crop
Vented walls move air through the stack so produce dries down, holds condition and stores longer than it would in solid-walled boxes.
Food-grade and wash-down
Moulded food-grade HDPE that hoses down and hot-washes clean between loads for HACCP-aligned packing.
Stacks and nests
Stack square loaded for the cold store and transport, then nest or fold flat empty to reclaim shed and yard space.
What the Burdekin runs on
The Burdekin turns reliable river irrigation into crops at scale. The district around Ayr and Home Hill is one of the country's most productive sugar-cane regions, and the same irrigation supports an expanding horticulture sector of mangoes, melons, capsicums, pumpkins and small crops, much of it picked, washed, graded and packed on site.
Irrigated sugar and horticulture want handling that moves air and stays food-grade through heat and washing. Vented food-grade bins move air through produce so it holds condition; food-grade crates take the wash and hot-wash line and stack square for the cold store; and stack-and-nest handling reclaims shed and yard space between picks. We supply and freight the range across the district.
