Our warehouse shelving at Yankee Supply has a wide range of shelf styles that make the selection process a lot easier.

Particle board is the industry standard shelving material. Particle board is made of lightweight waste materials such as wood chips, wood shavings and sawdust. While light and inexpensive, it’s hard to shape or mold because it is easy to break or chip. It’s also subject to tear out depending on the care given.
Galvanized materials prevent rusting and corrosion. A galvanized finish means that a protective layer of zinc coating is applied on materials such as steel or iron to protect them. When the zinc coating is intact, it protects against corrosion particles from reaching vulnerable areas such as steel or iron. This type of finish is also becoming an industrial trend.
The boltless shelves are very easy to assemble. There is no need for any hardware to assemble it. These shelving are made with rails and upright posts.
