Fruit and Vegetable Storage Basket ORION metal green 27 x 24.5 cm

Metal storage basket ORION in green, sized 27 x 24.5 cm, is designed to hold fruits and vegetables in home kitchens, pantries or refrigerators. Its open-wire construction allows air circulation around stored produce, helping to reduce moisture buildup and prolong freshness. The compact rectangular form fits on counters and shelving while the durable metal finish resists everyday wear and supports repeated use for sorting, display and general storage tasks.

Advantages

The open-wire design promotes ventilation and visibility of contents while the metal construction provides strength and shape stability. Its compact rectangular footprint makes efficient use of shelf and counter space. A powder-coated green finish offers basic corrosion resistance and an unobtrusive appearance that integrates with different kitchen styles. The basket is lightweight yet sturdy enough for regular household handling and easy to move when reorganising storage areas.

How to use

Place the ORION metal basket on a stable, dry surface such as a kitchen counter, pantry shelf or refrigerator shelf. Arrange fruits and vegetables so smaller items are not crushed by heavier ones; use separate baskets or compartments for produce with strong odours to avoid flavour transfer. Clean the basket periodically by wiping with a damp cloth and drying thoroughly to prevent moisture accumulation. Avoid prolonged contact with highly acidic liquids to preserve the coating and metal finish.

Usage recommendations

For best results, store ethylene-producing fruits (apples, pears) separately from ethylene-sensitive items (leafy greens). Regularly inspect stored produce and remove spoiled items to maintain airflow and overall freshness.
