HygienicIdeal for use in sanitary environments such as hospitals and commercial kitchens where castors are regularly cleaned, therefore reducing the risk of food contamination, germ-transfer and hospital acquired infection. |
|
Low maintenanceMinimal maintenance required, with resistance to staining and corrosion, while ensuring a long-lasting appearance. |
|
Chemical resilienceResistant to various chemicals and corrosive/extreme conditions, making them suited for industries where exposure to chemical substances and moisture is common. |
|
Long-term cost savingsWhile stainless steel castors may have a higher initial cost, their durability and corrosion resistance lead to significant long-term savings by minimising replacements and maintenance. |
|
Built to lastQuality tested and backed up with a three year warranty, our castors are robust and capable of withstanding heavy loads and harsh conditions. |
