Why Use Tubular Wall Shelves?
We’ve spoken before about wall shelving, in particular solid & louvered wall shelving. This time we’ll focus on the unique third type known as tubular wall shelving. Wall shelving itself plays a vital role in organizing your items & keeping your floor space clear. How does tubular wall shelving set itself apart from its solid & louvered counterparts?
In this article, we’ll give 2 main reasons to consider tubular shelving & also go over IMC’s offering to aid you in your journey. Let’s begin.
2 Major Advantages of Using Tubular Wall Shelving
1. Air Circulation – Although louvered shelving provides adequate air flow for your wares, tubular shelving is the champion. This is simply because of the bigger openings found on the unit. The rack-like design means that the shelving itself is ideal for drying & storing your wares. You will not have to worry about pooling or standing of water when placing your objects on the shelf.
This makes tubular wall shelving ideal for dish rooms, where bowls, plates, & other tableware are constantly being washed & dried. Simply put, placing your wares on a tubular wall shelf speeds up the drying process dramatically.
2. Easy to Clean – Going along with the above, the elimination of pooling water & other contaminants means less bacteria & dirt. This means cleaning & sanitizing your tubular wall shelf is an easy undertaking & usually takes no more than a few wipe downs. On the other hand, solid & louvered shelving have curves & crevices that must be cleaned thoroughly in order to achieve complete disinfection.
