Store at Great Lengths with New 33-Inch-Wide AkroBin®


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 2007, Akron, Ohio— Akro-Mils introduces the new 33" Wide AkroBin— the perfect storage and organization solution for extra long parts. The 33" W x 8-5/8" L x 5" H Wide AkroBin also provides users the flexibility to create up to eight different compartments through insertion or removal of up to seven dividers (sold separately) to accommodate multiple sizes and shapes of materials— helping to improve productivity in a wide range of work-in-process applications. 
 
33" Wide AkroBins stack securely atop each other, sit on shelving, or hang from Akro-Mils’ 36" Louvered Rack, Rail and Shelving Systems. The rigid grid design on the base provides additional load support for stacking, while a full-width hanger lip supports bin on hanging systems. With a weight capacity of up to 80 lbs., 33" Wide AkroBins are constructed with reinforced side ribs add further support and prevent the sides from spreading when loaded bins are stacked. A wide hopper front allows easy access for quick parts picking and provides a large label area for easy identification of contents. Molded from high-density polypropylene, the 33" Wide AkroBin delivers long-lasting strength and durability in any material handling system. 
 
Customize a system of 33" Wide AkroBins with optional 2-1/2" dividers (larger, 4" dividers and lid accessory available in late 2007) for maximum versatility in product handling. 33" Wide AkroBins are available in yellow, red, blue, green and stone colors to facilitate inventory control, product sorting and visual identification.
 
Combined in packages with Akro-Mils’ broad range of Cabinet, Louvered Rack, Rail and Shelving Systems, 33" Wide AkroBins easily create custom storage and organization for demanding applications.
