Our next generation MacroBin 26 has undergone an upgrade using the latest in design innovations to make a superior bin with features that far outperform other bins on the market. The 26NG features newly engineered reinforced columns and feet that improve impact resistance and reduce damage during tough harvests. An original cross pattern design in the base further reduces damage by decreasing base line deflection.
MacroBin 26NG
Description
Features & Benefits
100% Stack Compatibility with previous generation MacroBin 26-FV
The 26NG reduces tare weight allowing for increased shipping efficiencies and decreased freight costs.
New column design improves strength allowing them to act as bumpers, absorbing and recoiling on impact to prevent breakage.
Innovative geometry creates a “bruise buffer zone” and reduces the bulging of side walls so produce will not suffer from side impact.
Rounded corners and smoother surfaces mean fewer scuffs, abrasions, and cuts on your product.
The drainage hole size allows the maximum amount of water to escape while reducing the amount of dirt and rocks that get in.
Increased ventilation in the sides and base facilitate the use of thermofogging, reduce heat absorption and cooling costs, and provide for quicker drying and degreening.
Multiple foot options available depending on your application.

Benefits of Using MacroBins
Increased Productivity
MacroBins are easy to handle, move, and transport; the unique interlocking foot design makes them easy to align, stack, and store.
Reduced Cooling Costs
Hundreds of ventilation slots in the sides and base promote air plow and help your products cool down faster.
Reduced Bin Repair Costs
MacroBins are virtually maintenance free; repairs are easy with hot air welding.
Better Sanitation and Reduced Contamination
Smooth, nonporous surfaces are easy to sanitize and won’t trap debris, breed bacteria, or absorb chemicals like wood bins.
Improved Pack Out
Rounded corners and smooth surfaces means fewer scuffs, abrasions, and cuts on your product.
Improved Traceability and Bin Security
Several identification methods including RFID tags and attractive foil embossing are available.
Why Plastics?
Plastics improve product quality with better storage conditions and faster cooling for produce.
Why Reusable?
Reusable containers create tremendous environmental advantages by conserving materials and resources, reducing waste, and lowering packaging costs.
Notes:
All bins are ivory unless noted otherwise. Other bin colors are available at an additional cost. All bins are available with foil embossing at an additional cost. Dimensions assume tolerance of 1/8″ or 3 mm. Cubic capacities assume tolerance of 5% and tare weights assume tolerance of 4% unless noted otherwise. Maximum Stack Weight = (weight of bin contents + tare weight of bin) x number of bins in stack. Stack weights also influenced by length of storage and temperature; a = long term, ambient temperature; b = short term, ambient temperature (1 month or less); c = long term, cold storage (0º F to 35º F or -17ºC to 2º C). Ambient temperature approximately equal to 75º F (23.9º C) . Please contact Macro Plastics if storage temperature is below 0º F (-17º C).Please refer to the MacroBin User Guide for information on the safe transportation, stacking and handling of MacroBins.
