Many mushroom producers while building new rooms ask now the same question – should they consider aluminium shelving or steel? Five years ago, the simple answer was – you can choose steel if they are galvanized. But now we see that nearly all mushroom farms in the world, and specially in Europe – choose aluminium. So – WHY?

1． The aluminum racks do not require any surface treatment. Anodizing is optional.
2． Besides this, aluminum has a much high rest value over galvanized steel.
3． The main advantages of aluminium growing racks over conventional steel racks are superior durability and corrosion resistance, less weight for transportation, and higher residual value.
Aluminium shelving are designed for hand picking and mechanical harvesting and are supplied with clear and concise assembly instructions. Besides this, optionally we can send technicians for supervision during installation of the shelves.
As well – various design features to fit your growing requirements available.
