The Standard Sizes for Potato Boxes are as follows ;

 

 

Length - The overall length is 1830mm

 

Width - The standard width is 1193mm, although some customers have remained

on the imperial 1220mm ( 48 " ) standard.

 

Height - An overall height of the box varies from one customer to the next,

but as a general guide the heights fall into three categories

 

a ) 914mm overall. This box nominally holds 1000kg of potatoes

 

b ) 965mm overall. This box nominally holds 1100kg of potatoes

 

c ) 1070mm overall. This box nominally holds 1200kg of potatoes

 

Variations of dimensions are possible, but must fall within the

dimensional limits as set out in BS7611, further details can

be obtained by request.

 

Base - The base can be either an " open " type where the box tippler

MUST support the top of the box during unloading, or a " closed "

type where there are " box length " bottom boards, and can be used

for example on a forklift rotator attachment.

 

Gaps - Boxes can be supplied either " open " or "close " boarded.

The prefered gap for openboarded is a nominal 26mm, other

customers prefer variations down to 10mm, depending upon

potato size and type.

Closeboarded boxes are what they say, but we do prefer to leave a

small gap approximately half way down the box to allow for

swelling of the boards when the box is in wet conditions.
