In which colours are REA's plastic storage systems available?

When you choose REA's plastic storage systems, you're not only choosing hygiene, durability, and quality, but also a look that perfectly matches your working environment. The colour of a storage rack often determines the first impression of your storage area. That’s why REA offers three different colour options: Classic, Design, and Grey.

First Impressions Matter: Why Colour Choice in Storage Systems Is Important

A warehouse, cold storage room, or workspace is more than just a place to store products. Its appearance contributes to a professional working environment and often reflects your company’s identity. A well-chosen colour can enhance recognition, create a sense of calm, or give a modern and professional look. That’s why it’s important to make a deliberate choice in this area.

Colour Options for REA Plastic Shelving

REA offers three colour variants, each with its own unique advantages.

Classic (green/red) – The Recognisable REA Style

  • The original REA shelving colour
  • Recognisable, functional, and timeless
  • Widely used in sectors where food safety is a top priority, such as the food industry, hospitality, and recreation

The Classic version has been in use for decades and is, for many, the face of REA. This colour combination represents reliability and sturdiness, and is still widely used in warehouses and environments where food safety is essential. Think, for example, of plastic shelving in a cold storage room for meat products or in a professional kitchen.

Design (grey/green) – For the Modern Work Environment

  • Stylish colour combination
  • Often chosen for representative or modern spaces
  • Perfectly matches a sleek and professional appearance

The Design version is popular among companies that value a clean, professional look in addition to functionality. It’s especially suited for areas frequently visited by customers or auditors, such as cold storage rooms in the food industry or storage areas in the healthcare sector. A concrete example is a bin trolley in a restaurant, which must offer not only hygiene but also a professional appearance.

Grey (fully grey) – Subtle and Neutral

  • Fully grey design
  • Ideal for environments where calmness and uniformity are desired
  • Commonly used in funeral services, hospitality, healthcare, laboratories, or cleanrooms

The Grey version is the most neutral option and is often chosen for settings where a calm, uniform appearance is important. Thanks to its subtle colouring, this variant fits perfectly in environments where hygiene, professionalism, and above all, tranquillity are key. A fitting example is a flower trolley used in a funeral home or healthcare facility.

Which Colour Best Suits Your Work Environment?

The choice of colour depends on the look you want to achieve and the environment in which the shelving will be used:

  • Classic: recognisable and widely used in areas where food safety is a top priority.
  • Design: modern and representative, ideal for professional settings where appearance matters.
  • Grey: neutral and perfect for spaces where calmness, uniformity, and hygiene are essential, such as laboratories, cleanrooms, and healthcare facilities.

This way, you can always choose a colour that matches both the appearance and function of your work environment!
