Original Press Release:



KitBin® XT Bulk Containers from Decade Products Provide Greater Volume And Increased Versatility



Grand Rapids, MI-The new KitBin® XT bulk container from Decade Products combines all of the features of the standard KitBin knockdown container with the ability to handle approximately 70% more weight and volume, translating to increased versatility and more savings.

Specially modified panels and stabilizing clips let you join a second layer of walls together to make a "two-story" container, and newly designed clips allow the top half of a sidewall to be folded down for easier access. The container's improved access helps workers avoid strenuous reaching, back strain and pulled muscles. KitBin XT bulk containers can lower the cost of pick and pull operations because they permit 3 or 4 walls to be set in-place to secure products, minimize damage, and speed processing of cubed shipments.

KitBin XT panels are interchangeable for ease of handling, lower replacement cost and reduced inventory expense. The assembled containers are 44" high (twice the standard KitBin), and provide a weight limit for a single box of 2,200 lbs., compared to 1,320 lbs. for the standard KitBin. With the industry's highest return ratio at 300 empty containers per 53' trailer, Kit Bin XT bulk containers feature a patented locking wall design, maintenance-free, impact resistant HDPE structural foam construction, smooth surfaces for easy cleaning, and temperature resistance from + 140°F to -0°F (+ 60°C to -40°C). Specially engineered strapping slots in the container's sidewalls facilitate positive securement of contents. KitBin XT sidewall panels may be used with either the standard KitBin pallet, or with the new ErgoNizer pallet to provide greater application flexibility.
