KMB Containers

KMB Container Features

The Multi-Purpose Container

The System

An outstanding feature of the KMB container is its great versatility in terms of warehousing and materials-handling applications. The system can be extended, using more than 50 optional configurations. It offers alternative packaging for fragile items packed in cardboard boxes or foil packs. Empty containers can be nested, providing space-savings of up to 75% and thus reducing storage and transportation costs.

Advantages

• Space-savings of 75% when empty
• Temperature-resistant from -20˚ to +90˚C
• Can be handled from any side with automatic stacking equipment
• Ergonomically-shaped handles
• Smooth surfaces for easy cleaning, with optional drainage holes
• Made of polypropylene
• Can hold contents weighing up to 110 lbs. (reinforced base required)
• Specially-designed bar code fields for protection against damage and soiling
• Run with optimum smoothness through conveyor systems
• Textured base provides grip when used with belt conveyors
• Can be supplied with various logos

Attached Lid Containers

The System

The version with a hinged two-section lid provides the best way of protecting your products from damage. An optional seal prevents unauthorized access to goods being transported. Lead seals can also be attached to provide additional security, as can reinforced case straps (using the grooves provided). The hinged folding lid permits secure stacking of different-sized KMB containers. The lids fold outward and lie vertically against the side of the container to permit nesting when empty.

Advantages

• Containers of different heights and sizes can be stacked on top of each other when lid is closed
• Optimum damage-protection for items being distributed
• High level of access control with optional lock of seal
• Additional security using band strapping in grooves
• Vertical position of open lid ensures maximum space saving when nested
• Hinged lids can be replaced individually
• Available with stacking bail

Containers with Bail Arm

The System

A conical shape with easy stacking need not be a contradiction in terms. Just fold back the bail arms and nest the empty containers inside each other, or pile full containers into a stack.

For safer handling, the frame is fitted with a special catch that prevents it folding up by accident.

Advantages

• The bail arms are easy to use
• The arms are made of highly robust fiberglass-reinforced material
• Safety catch provides high level of operating reliability and ease of handling
• The bail arm engages precisely in both normal and folded position
• No reduction in useful volume
• Each arm can be replaced individually
