Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus Add-On Unit 4 Tier Vented 1830x870x610mm

The Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus Add-On Unit is a four-tier plastic shelving section designed to extend an existing Camshelving Basics Plus stationary run. It ships with one post kit, eight traverses, and shelf plates, allowing it to connect directly to an adjoining unit without tools beyond what the assembly requires. The vented shelf plates allow air to circulate freely, which makes this unit suitable for use in dry stores, chillers, and walk-in freezers where airflow around stored product matters.

In practice, these units are commonly used by operators who need to expand their storage capacity incrementally rather than replacing an entire shelving system. Because the add-on connects to an existing stationary unit, it maintains the same weight-bearing capacity as the standalone section — there is no structural compromise from the joined configuration. Units can be arranged in straight runs, L-shapes, or T-shapes, which gives some flexibility when working around an awkward storage room layout.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

• Plastic construction is rust and corrosion resistant — suited to humid or refrigerated environments
• Shelf plates are removable and dishwasher safe, making deep cleaning straightforward
• No tools required for shelf height adjustment during reconfiguration
• Vented design supports airflow compliance requirements in refrigerated storage
• Modular format allows storage to grow as the operation expands

One point worth noting: this is an add-on unit only. It requires an existing Cambro Camshelving Basics Plus stationary unit to attach to — it cannot stand independently. If you are starting a new shelving installation from scratch, a stationary starter unit is the correct first purchase. For larger operations with heavier storage demands, it is worth considering whether the Basics Plus range has the load capacity your site requires before committing to a full run.

This unit suits smaller to medium-sized catering operations — cafés, pub kitchens, contract catering prep areas — where reliable, hygienic dry or refrigerated storage is needed without a large capital outlay. It is a practical choice for operations that already use Cambro Camshelving and want to extend their existing setup.

If you are unsure whether this add-on is compatible with your current shelving or want to work out how many units your storage room can accommodate, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
