Low cost Hypacages in stock
Written by admin on April 19th, 2012
At Avatan, we have been stocking Hypacages for some years and have now extended our range including heavier duty more durable items to suit a wider use. To date, we have carried stock of light duty Hypacages, only suitable for 500kg stackable four units high. We have also routinely carried stock of Stackable Retention Units, available for sale and for hire. Both of these items are popular sellers and customers are reliant on these being available for a quick turn round rather than having to wait for purpose built more conventional stillages and steel pallets.
Accepting that 500kg loading is limiting for some uses, we have now developed a heavier duty range of collapsible Hypacages. Keeping to the standard British pallet size of 1200mm x 1000mm, our new items have an overall height of 1000mm and are suitable for 1000kg per cage stackable four units high. This doubles the capacity and opens up the possibilities for these very effective and simple cages. With all four sides folding flat onto the sturdy base, these may be transported empty for a fraction of the cost of assembled cages. They are similarly particularly suitable for seasonal storage requirements where the collapsed Hypacage may be stored in much less space.
This larger, heavy duty Hypacage is optionally available with fork loops, ensuring that the cage can be lifting safely and securely centred on the fork lift and taking away sideways slippage risks.
We are not suggesting that Hypacages are suitable for all eventualities and therefore offer an extensive range of more conventional stillages, cage pallets, box pallets and post pallets. Manufactured in our UK plant, rigid and collapsible stillages can be designed to suit your own very special needs.
Whatever your needs, sale or rental, do please give our sales team a call. We will be delighted to help.

Euro Cage Pallets now in stock
Written by admin on April 11th, 2012
Euro cage pallets are a regular item within our second hand stocks, SHC90 and SHC91 refer. This item is used extensively in Europe and commonly available here in the UK. We are pleased to announce that we also now supply Euro Cage Pallets as new equipment both in the rigid form, Euro 90 and the collapsible form Euro 91. Manufactured initially for the European railways, this cage will also fit snugly within 8′ wide trailers with up to 96 assembled units on super cube trailers. Indeed up to 288 folded collapsible Euro 91 cages can be transported in one load.
As a stock item, we anticipate this stillage becoming one of our regular rental products available for long or short term hire.
Each cage is suitable for a uniformly distributed load stackable four units high. The approved Euro cage is manufactured with a timber deck but we produce the collapsible cage with a stronger and more long lasting corrugated sheet steel deck. With specially designed feet, the stacking does not add to the overall dimensions of the pallet, sitting firmly and squarely on the top frame with all of the superimposed load weight transferring directly through the framework.
This cage may be manufactured in other sizes to order and may also be manufactured as a box pallet with sheet steel sides.
The sales team at Avatan will be delighted to provide more details upon request.
