Product Information

Full details

The HAY Colour Crate is an excellent solution for individuals seeking a versatile, eco-friendly storage option that also adds a playful touch to their space. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to transform clutter into organized, aesthetically pleasing arrangements in various settings, from kitchens to offices. However, its perforated design means it may not be ideal for storing very small, loose items without an additional liner.

FAQs

What material is the HAY Colour Crate made from?

It is made from 100% recycled post-consumer plastic waste, making it an environmentally conscious storage solution.

Is the crate suitable for storing food items?

Yes, the HAY Colour Crate is food-safe, making it ideal for organizing items in your refrigerator or pantry.

Can I stack different sizes of Colour Crates together?

Yes, the HAY Colour Crates are designed to be stackable, including combinations of different sizes, allowing for flexible and modular storage.

How do I clean my HAY Colour Crate?

You can easily clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap. For harder-to-reach areas in the perforations, a soft brush can be used. Rinse and air dry thoroughly.

Does the crate come assembled or do I need to put it together?

The crate is foldable and arrives flat-packed. You will need to unfold the sides and click them into place for assembly.

Can this crate be used outdoors?

While durable, the HAY Colour Crate is primarily designed for indoor organization. Prolonged exposure to outdoor elements, especially direct sunlight, may cause discoloration or affect material integrity over time.

Troubleshooting

Crate feels unstable or collapses easily.

Ensure all four corners are properly locked. Gently push each side outwards until you hear or feel a secure 'click'. Sometimes a small amount of force is needed to engage the locking mechanism fully.

Difficult to clean debris from the small perforations.

Use a soft-bristled brush (like a dish brush or an old toothbrush) with soapy water to dislodge any stuck particles. Rinse thoroughly under running water.

Crate appears discolored or warped after prolonged use.

While durable, plastic can be affected by extreme heat or prolonged direct sunlight. Try to store the crate in a temperate environment away from direct sun exposure. For slight warping, ensure it's not overloaded.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Your HAY Colour Crate arrives flat-packed. To assemble, simply unfold the sides of the crate and push the short ends outwards until they click securely into the slots on the long ends. Ensure all four corners are firmly locked into place for maximum stability.

Compatibility

These crates are designed to be stackable with other HAY Colour Crates, including those of different sizes. This modular design allows you to mix and match sizes and colors to create a custom storage system that fits your specific needs. They are compatible with various indoor environments, offering flexible organization.

Care

Maintaining your HAY Colour Crate is straightforward:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the crate down with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning or to remove debris from the perforations, a soft brush can be used. Rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Drying: Allow the crate to air dry completely before refolding or storing items, especially food.
  • Storage: When not in use, fold the crate flat for compact storage in a dry area. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain color integrity and material durability.
