With the presence of global warming looming over our world, the nation is becoming increasingly eco conscious. In an attempt to both reduce waste, and lower the amount of gases emitted in disposal of unused goods, recycling is becoming a progressively more prominent feature in our society. In accordance with this, we at PPS have presented a rental service for our products, including the hire of returnable plastic crates, in a bid to stop unnecessary harm being caused to our environment.

Hiring is an excellent way to receive the correct goods required for your purpose or project. It presents an opportunity to use high quality products, without the costly price tag often associated with purchasing such equipment. Ideal for short term use, rental from PPS gives you the freedom to acquire the most suitable equipment, without having to worry about anything going to waste once you’ve finished.

Plastic crates are ideal for a number of uses, including storage and transport. Available in a range of sizes, they allow for easy and convenient containment of small or loose goods. Due to the plastic surface, the crates will remain resilient throughout all weather conditions, meaning they can be left outside if necessary, without the risk of damage or deterioration.

As plastic crates come in different sizes they act as an extremely versatile product, perfect for when you’re on the road, or moving goods between sites.

As an environmentally friendly and economical method, our rental services prove highly beneficial for all people or businesses looking for transit equipment. Always on the lookout for well-kept equipment, our stock is constantly changing and replenishing, providing you with a diverse and suitable range of plastic crates and transit products. With goods available to both hire and purchase, we at PPS can provide efficient equipment, with the greatest potential for maximum productivity.

Many businesses in the UK require their goods to be transported across the country to distributors and retailers. To ensure that they are transported safely, efficiently and so as not to compromise their quality, it is essential that business owners invest in Returnable Transit Equipment (RTE). At PPS Equipment we offer a number of solutions on a rental basis to businesses from a selection of sectors, these include timber and plastic crates, pallets and roll cages.

We have found that our plastic crates have become one of our most popular options, due to the many benefits that they offer to businesses. Advantages include, improved hygiene, durability, they are space saving and they can be used again and again.

Hygiene – Those in the food, drink and catering industries require a storage solution that can be cleaned easily if any spillages occur. In these instances timber crates simply aren’t suitable as they will be unsuitable for future use. Our plastic crates can be cleaned extremely easily and we even provide a wash service, to ensure that our clients’ crates are kept clean and hygienic at all times.

Durability – Our plastic crates have been designed to be incredibly strong and hard wearing, to prevent damage to products whilst they are in transit. We believe that they are the correct choice economically, as business owners are unlikely to have to purchase new crates regularly.

Space Saving – We now offer a range of collapsible plastic pallets. This means that less space is required to transport items, which could save business owners money off of fuel and resource, whilst helping to safeguard the environment.

Over the past few years, the use of plastic crates has increased across a wide breadth of industries, especially within the food sector.

Why has this occurred? Well, a Midlands-based company, PPS Equipment Management Ltd can offer some form of explanation. PPS is a specialist company in providing services for returnable transit equipment (RTE) – of which a large proportion is plastic packaging crates.

As a general rule plastic packaging crates offer an ideal alternative to one-way packaging such as cardboard boxes or expanded polystyrene packaging. PPS promotes the use of plastic packaging crates as a cost-effective way for a number of companies particularly in areas such as raw poultry, beef and pork sectors to not only reduce their carbon footprint but also critically to save costs. PPS acknowledges that the initial cost of a plastic packaging crate is higher than the cheaper cardboard, but it only takes a few trips for the plastic packaging crate to recoup the initial investment.

In addition to plastic crates, PPS offers rental services, online asset tracking and washing facilities at their sites in Measham and in Grimsby.

PPS Equipment Management Ltd, based in the Midlands can now provide customers with a range of heavy duty plastic crates, used across a broad range of industries.

These heavy duty plastic crates come in different sizes, colours and construction – these may be tote boxes (attached lid boxes), nestable crates or even collapsible crates. As well as offering heavy duty plastic crates for sale (and PPS can offer these plastic crates on either a new or used basis) PPS offers a rental, equipment management and even wash facilities. Many heavy duty plastic crates are used within the food industry so must be washed or sterilised prior to re-use.

Heavy duty plastic crates tend to be increasingly used by those companies conscious of the advantages of reusable transit equipment rather than single use packaging. To reinforce their message PPS will currently issue data on their heavy duty plastic crates and their very positive carbon footprint.
