INDUSTRIAL AND FOOD-GRADE CARTS: how to transport meat, dry goods, and liquids more efficiently in Quebec food plants.

THE WRONG CART CAN SLOW DOWN THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION FLOW

Bulk carts are used to transport meat, dry ingredients, liquids, work-in-process products, by-products and waste. Yet they are often selected based mainly on capacity and price, without considering the actual load weight, travel path through the plant, casters, cleaning requirements or unloading method.

In this guide, we explain how to choose an industrial food-grade cart based on the material being transported, its density, the maximum load, aisle and doorway clearances, temperature, drainage, manoeuvrability and sanitation requirements. A poorly suited cart can complicate material handling, increase product transfers, slow down cleaning, cause employee fatigue and increase the risk of spills or cross-contamination. Choosing the right cart therefore requires careful consideration to ensure it is durable, performs reliably and is suited to actual operating conditions.

You will also learn when to choose food-grade plastic over stainless steel and which mistakes to avoid when selecting a cart that truly meets your operational needs.
