Vented bins and crates for the Lockyer Valley
The Lockyer Valley is one of the country's most intensive vegetable regions: onions, brassicas and salad lines through Gatton and Laidley. We supply vented food-grade bins and crates for field-to-pack handling, delivered across the valley.
Airflow for vegetables
Vented bins move air through onions and brassicas so the crop holds condition from field to pack.
Takes the wash line
Food-grade HDPE crates hose down and hot-wash clean between loads for HACCP-aligned packing.
Stacks and nests
Crates stack square loaded for the cold store and nest flat empty to reclaim valley shed space.
For the salad bowl
Intensive vegetable growing means constant handling, washing and packing, and gear that has to keep up and stay food-grade. Our vented bins move air through onions and brassicas, and food-grade crates take the wash line and stack square for the cold store.

What the Lockyer Valley runs on
The Lockyer Valley is one of the most intensive vegetable-growing regions in the country, often called Australia's salad bowl. The rich soils around Gatton and Laidley grow onions, brassicas, lettuce, beans and a long list of salad and vegetable lines, much of it washed, graded and packed on site for the major retailers.
Intensive growing means constant handling, washing and packing, and gear that has to keep up and stay food-grade through all of it. Vented bins move air through onions and brassicas, food-grade crates take the wash and hot-wash line, and stack-and-nest handling keeps the valley's busy sheds and cold stores moving.
