Dry Food Storage

Dry Food Storage Containers keep ingredients such as flour, sugar, grains and dry goods organised, protected and easy to access in busy kitchens. This range includes ingredient bins, bakery trays, mobile bins and bulk storage containers in a choice of sizes and formats. Designed for commercial restaurants, bakeries, hotels and catering operations, they help streamline prep, stock rotation and allergen control. Durable, hygienic materials and secure lids support safe, compliant food storage while maximising available space.

  • Ingredient bins with integrated scoops for quick, hygienic access to flour, sugar and other bulk dry goods.
  • Round and rectangular storage containers in multiple capacities to suit everything from small prep areas to high-volume bakeries.
  • Transparent mobile bins that improve visibility of contents and simplify stock checks and FIFO rotation.
  • Bakery trays and dollies for storing, transporting and staging baked goods and dough in production areas.
  • Stackable designs that make the most of vertical storage space in cramped storerooms and kitchens.
  • Optional tight-fitting lids available separately to protect contents from moisture, pests and cross-contamination.

How to choose the right Dry Food Storage Containers

  • Assess the volume of ingredients you store and choose container capacities that match your daily and weekly usage to avoid constant refilling.
  • Measure shelving, under-counter and floor space so you can select containers, bins and dollies that fit without obstructing walkways.
  • Decide between mobile bins on castors or static containers depending on whether you need to move ingredients between prep, bakery and service areas.
  • Consider material type and clarity, opting for robust, food-safe plastics and transparent sides where quick identification and stock control are important.
  • Match lids and scoops to your chosen containers to support allergen separation, hygiene standards and HACCP procedures.
  • For bakeries and high-output kitchens, combine bulk ingredient bins with bakery trays and dollies to streamline production flow.

Care and maintenance

  • Clean containers, bins and lids regularly with food-safe detergents, following manufacturer guidance to maintain hygiene and material integrity.
  • Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can scratch plastic surfaces and create areas where bacteria and residues can build up.
  • Allow all components to dry fully before refilling to prevent moisture build-up, clumping of ingredients and potential mould growth.
  • Inspect wheels, handles and scoops on mobile bins frequently, tightening fixings and replacing worn parts to keep movement safe and smooth.
  • Label containers clearly and refresh labels as needed to support accurate allergen management and stock rotation.
  • Store empty containers with lids loosely fitted or off to promote airflow and reduce odours between uses.
