Vented Wall Macro Bins
FDA-approved food grade polyprylene MacroBins were specifically designed for agriculture, to be used throughout every stage of the handling process: harvest, storage, processing, and shipping. Solid Walled Bins are also available for this purpose, but the products in the table below feature multiple ventilation slots to facilitate the use of thermofogging, reduce heat absorption and help your products cool down faster in the hydro-cooler. Their nonporus surface also won't absorb water and dehydrate your products as would wood bins, and they keep a consistent tare weight throughout their use.
Thanks to their smooth rounded corners and one-piece construction, MacroBins are easy to clean with less risk of contamination to your products.
All bins below are ivory unless noted otherwise. Other bin colors are available at an additional cost.
Note: At this time all Macro Bins are only available in truckload quantities, for more information please call a BARR Materials Handling Expert today at 1.800.665.4499 !

Vented Wall MacroBins are designed for agricultural operations that need reusable bulk containers with built-in airflow throughout harvesting, storage, processing, and shipping.
Made from FDA-approved polypropylene, the bins feature multiple ventilation slots that support air and process flow through the container. BARR Plastics states that the vented design helps facilitate thermofogging, reduce heat absorption, speed cooling in hydro-coolers, and support drying and degreening processes.
The bins also feature nonporous surfaces that do not absorb water like wood bins. This helps them maintain a consistent tare weight during use and avoids moisture absorption from the product. Their one-piece construction, rounded corners, and smooth surfaces also make them easier to clean while reducing areas where unwanted material can collect.
The collection includes nine vented MacroBin models, with listed capacities ranging from 93 USG / 352 L / 12 cu. ft. to 407 USG / 1,541 L / 54 cu. ft. Published load capacities range from 500 lb to 3,000 lb, depending on the model.
The bins are listed in ivory unless otherwise noted, and other colours are available at additional cost.
For growers, packers, processors, and agricultural operations that need ventilation combined with reusable bulk handling, the Vented Wall MacroBin range provides multiple sizes for different products and workflows.
