Eko Fit Racking for Vertical Farming

The Eko Fit is an extremely flexible racking system for vertical farming, that offers superior strength and hygiene. This racking system is designed for use in food production and food storage systems, and is manufactured from food production-grade materials. The Eko Fit is made from polyethylene and aluminium, and is basic acid and bacteria proof, making it ideal for the challenges presented in horticultural production systems.

In addition to bacteria resistance, sterilisation of the grow rack can also be easily achieved as individual shelf slats can be removed for thorough cleaning and are dishwasher compatible. The frames can also be wiped clean with a dry cloth. If a damp clean is required, ensure the area is dried well. Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleaners on the frames.

The design of the Eko Fit offers space between slats and the flexibility of individual slat removal. This increases the potential airflow across the growing area, and means this racking system is compatible with any additional grow rack components, such as LED grow lights or any necessary piping and cabling needed to optimise your system. It has fully adjustable shelf heights and is available in a range of different sizes (4 depths, 7 lengths and 3 heights – see the below table for full breakdown), meaning this system can be designed to fit any grow room or plant cultivation environment.

• Depths: 375, 450, 525, and 600 mm
• Widths: 770, 920, 1070, 1220, 1370, 1520, and 1820 mm
• Heights: 1700, 2000, and 2450 mm

The Eko Fit racking system is extremely quick and easy to erect, and can be assembled without the need for additional tools (though a rubber mallet is advised). It offers the option to be either free standing, or to add castors/wheels to allow easy movement of racks within your grow room. The Eko Fit can also have corner units incorporated to maximise awkward space usage. This system can be expanded easily by adding additional sections, so as your growing enterprise develops, you can add additional grow space with ease.
