MacroBin 26FV - Vented | 26FV

The MacroBin 26FV is a fully vented, food-grade bulk container designed for agricultural handling from harvest through storage, processing, and shipping. It has a listed capacity of 215 USG / 814 L / 29 cu. ft. and a listed load capacity of 1300 lb. The product page identifies the material as FDA-approved polypropylene.

Multiple ventilation slots allow air and process flow through the bin. BARR Plastics notes that the vented design can facilitate thermofogging, reduce heat absorption, support faster cooling in a hydro-cooler, and help with quicker drying and degreening. The nonporous surface does not absorb water like wood bins and helps maintain a consistent tare weight.

Rounded corners and smooth surfaces make the bin easier to clean and reduce places where unwanted particles can collect. The injection-molded plastic is splinter-resistant, while the lightweight construction supports routine movement through harvesting, packing, processing, and storage operations. The individual 26FV page also notes that its interlocking foot design supports stacking up to 10 high.

The 26FV has listed outside/inside dimensions of 47-3/4 / 44-3/8 in wide, 47-3/4 / 44-1/2 in long, and 28-1/2 / 24 in high, with a tare weight of 87.5 lb. It is intended for operations that need ventilation plus a reusable, sanitary bulk handling container.

Features & Benefits

• Impact-grade plastic lasts longer, standing up to heavy day-to-day use, season after season. The molded plastic resists splintering, reducing damage to product and maintenance costs. Bin repair is inexpensive with hot air welding.

• Lightweight construction reduces shipping costs and makes MacroBins easier to move; their interlocking foot design makes them safer to stack — up to 10 high.

• FDA-approved materials are certified safe for use with food products, eliminating many HACCP problems associated with wood bins.

• Ventilation slots facilitate the use of thermofogging, reduce heat absorption and cooling costs, and provide for quicker drying and degreening. Narrow vents are also available in the 26-a-FV.

• Nonporous surfaces won’t absorb water or dehydrate your product like wood bins, and they provide a constant tare weight throughout their use.

• Rounded corners and smooth surfaces mean fewer scuffs, abrasions, and cuts on your product. Risk of contamination is reduced because there are fewer places for unwanted particles to hide.

• Easy-to-sanitize MacroBins keep cleaning costs to a minimum. A high-pressure wash removes most debris; a nonabrasive brush can dislodge any remaining items.
