• Space optimization: the 5-level pyramidal structure with 100 hooks allows for a considerable quantity of products to be hung, reducing the floor footprint and effectively exploiting the height of the seasoning rooms.
• Homogeneous air circulation: the open design with rods and hooks promotes the passage of air in all directions, ensuring uniform seasoning of the cured meats and cheeses.
• Reduction of operating times: the 4 wheels allow the trolley to be moved quickly between the seasoning cells and the processing areas, reducing handling times and decreasing the dedicated labor.
• Durability and hygiene: AISI 304 stainless steel is corrosion resistant, easy to clean and complies with food hygiene regulations, guaranteeing a long life without compromises on microbiological safety.
• Structural stability: the 5-level pyramidal structure, while maintaining a low center of gravity, distributes the load in a balanced way, preventing tilting and sagging even with a full load.
• Versatility of use: the system is suitable for cured meats, cheeses and other suspended food products, adapting to multiple seasoning and handling needs in professional environments.

The trolley is specifically designed for production and seasoning environments in the food sector. It finds primary application in cured meat factories, where it allows for hanging hams, shoulders and other sausages during the controlled seasoning phases. In dairies, the trolley represents an efficient solution for handling cheese wheels during the refining periods.

It is also used in slaughterhouses and butcher shops for the seasoning and organization of meats, as well as in generic food industries that require robust systems for the vertical handling of suspended products. In all these contexts, the trolley operates in cold rooms, seasoning chambers and processing areas where ease of movement and durability over time is a priority.

Choosing this trolley is appropriate when operating in a context of seasoning and handling cured meats and cheeses and there is a need to maximize vertical load capacity without compromising on operational practicality. It is the correct choice if the company has rooms with sufficient height (at least 1760 mm free) and requires frequent movements of the loaded trolley between different areas of the production facility.

The fundamental operational prerequisite is the availability of flat and accessible flooring to guarantee the correct functioning of the wheels. It is also essential that the seasoning environment is compatible with AISI 304 stainless steel, i.e., that it is not subjected to extreme saline exposure or corrosive environments not common in standard cold rooms.

In scenarios where seasoning is continuous and staff do not have time for frequent manual movements, the presence of the 4 wheels represents a competitive advantage. If, on the other hand, you operate in contexts where the trolleys must remain fixed in dedicated cells, the benefit of mobility is reduced and less expensive alternative solutions could be considered.

How does this trolley differ from other seasoning systems?

This trolley combines the compact pyramidal structure with the 100-hook capacity and full mobility on wheels. Unlike fixed cells or seasoning cabinets, it allows for whole batches of product to be moved quickly between different processing areas. Compared to linear trolleys with horizontal shelves, the pyramidal structure takes up less floor space while containing a higher quantity of suspended product, ideal for cured meats and cheeses that require free air circulation.

Is AISI 304 stainless steel compliant with food regulations?

Yes, AISI 304 stainless steel is one of the most used materials in the food industry and complies with European standards EN 10088-1 and food safety directives (Regulation EC 1935/2004). It is a recognized and approved material for direct or indirect contact with food, characterized by high corrosion resistance and ease of sanitization, essential requirements for food production environments.

What maximum load can the trolley support?

The technical specifications provided describe the capacity of 100 hooks distributed over 7 rods on 5 levels. The maximum load depends on the average weight of the individual products (cured meats, cheeses) hung and their distribution. We recommend contacting the manufacturer for an assessment of the total permissible load based on the profile and thickness of the rods, in order to operate safely according to the rules of use.

Are the wheels lockable to prevent involuntary movement?

The technical characteristics provided do not specify if the wheels have brakes or locks. It is advisable to check with the supplier for the availability of wheels with a braking system, an important element for keeping the trolley stable during the loading/unloading phases or during seasoning in environments with a slope.

Is the trolley easily disassembled for deep cleaning?

The specifications do not detail the degree of modularity of the rods and hooks. For deep sanitization operations, it is advisable to check with the manufacturer if the 7 rods are removable and if the individual hooks can be detached, an element that facilitates cleaning in compliance with HACCP protocols and good hygiene practices.

What is the vibration resistance during transport on irregular floors?

The AISI 304 stainless steel pyramidal structure is designed to resist ordinary mechanical stress in production environments. For use in areas with particularly irregular flooring or for frequent movements over long distances, it is advisable to ensure that the design of the rods and the base guarantees structural stability and that the wheels are appropriately sized for the total expected load.
