Mesh Storage Cubes

Mesh Storage Cubes

Mesh storage cubes have become a favourite in retail, home, and event displays for good reason. They mix strong materials with clear visibility. The wire grid allows light to pass through and offers 360° access.

Whether you’re merchandising accessories, shoes, packaged goods, or organising back-of-house storage, mesh cubes deliver modular flexibility. Use them standalone, stacked, or as part of a hybrid display wall.

Because they’re modular, they evolve with your needs: expand, reconfigure or relocate without dismantling your whole setup.

Material & Construction Guide

Knowing the materials helps with durability and correct use. Here’s what to look for:

Wire / Mesh Material

• Typically chrome-plated steel mesh wire, offering good strength and visual neutrality.
• Mesh panel sizes are often squares (e.g. 305mm, 355mm, 405mm) — pick panel dimensions that align with your product sizes.

Connectors & Clips

• Clear plastic clips (or metal clips in some ranges) hold panels together — easy to assemble or disassemble on site.
• Connector types: 2-way (linear), 3-way (T), 4-way (cross) — choose based on cube geometry (straight lines, corner joins, grid intersections).

Finish & Coatings

• Chrome plating is common; check for corrosion resistance, especially if used in humid or high-moisture environments.
• You can use powder coating for colour coding or branding, if available. Please check with us to see if we can supply coated options.

Structural Support

• For taller or heavier cube stacks, consider reinforcing with backing, wall anchoring or heavier gauge wire.
• Always check weight limits on shelves or cubes especially if displaying heavy items.

How to Choose the Right Mesh Cube Setup

Here are some tips to guide your selection:

Measure your product dimensions

• Get the maximum width, depth and height of your display items. Choose panel sizes that give sufficient clearance on all sides.

Decide on footprint & layout

• Do you need a low table-level display, vertical stack, or wall-mounted cube grid? That determines how many cubes in width, depth and height.

Select cube capacity (compartments)

• Higher compartment numbers give more smaller voids; lower numbers give deeper cubes. Match to your SKU variety.

Plan convenience & flow

• Open sides or front access helps customers reach items easily. Also think about front-lighting, viewing angles, and visitor traffic.

Choose between kits or custom build

• If your layout is regular and standard sizes work, ready kits save you time and effort.
• If your space is odd-shaped or you want a unique layout, buy panels + connectors and build your custom mesh cube system.

Factor lighting & backdrop

• Wire cubes are airy and transparent; using back panels, acrylic dividers or LED strip lighting can accentuate the contents.

Allow for expansion

• Always plan for modular expansion. Design so new cubes or panels can fit in later. This way, you won’t need to completely redo what you have already built.

Display Tips & Best Practices

• Use lighting to your advantage: Mesh cubes do well in bright venues — back or internal lights catch reflections off the wire and highlight products.
• Organise by colour or theme: Use contiguous cubes to group SKUs by colour, range or promo to guide the eye.
• Layer depth: Use shallow front cubes for featured items, deeper ones behind or below for bulk stock.
• Add backers or accents: Transparent acrylic or coloured backing panels can make your product pop and hide distractions behind.
• Rotation and stock refresh: Cubes are easy to access and move. You can quickly change displays, making them great for seasonal or promotional updates.
• Label & pricing integration: Use clip-on label holders on the grid wires to present prices or product info cleanly.
• Stability matters: For tall stacks, anchor the assembly or include stabilising brackets so the structure remains safe.

FAQs

• “What is the weight capacity of each cube compartment?”

That depends on the wire gauge, panel size, and how well you anchor it. As a rough rule, mesh cubes can support light to medium goods (e.g. small packaged items, shoes, accessories). For heavy loads, ask us for reinforced components or additional support.

• “Are the mesh storage cubes easy to assemble?”

Yes — most kits come with panels and connectors (clips). You insert connectors into mesh squares and clip panels together — no tools needed for standard setups.

• “Can I expand or change the layout later?”

Absolutely. The modular design is one of the key benefits — you can add panels or connectors or create new cubes later.

• “Do you offer custom or non-standard sizes?”

Yes, on request. If your space or product sizes are unorthodox, contact us and we can quote custom panels or connectors.

• “What finishes are available?”

Chrome is standard. Depending on quantity, we may offer painted or powder-coated finishes. Ask our sales team for options.

Common Objections

• “Wire cubes look too industrial; they won’t match my retail aesthetic.”

You can soften the look — add coloured back panels, acrylic inserts, or decorative trim. Plus, the transparency ensures your product remains the visual focus.

• “I don’t want to commit to a full kit — what if my layout changes?”

That’s exactly why we offer connector + panels on their own. Buy just the parts you need and adapt as your display evolves. No wasted inventory.

• “It seems expensive to buy a full cube system.”

The upfront cost may seem higher than generic shelving. However, being modular means you can reuse, adapt and expand rather than replace. Over time, it’s more economical.

• “Will they rust?”

Our chrome-plated cubes are built for retail environments. For humid or outdoor conditions, we advise enhanced coatings or selecting suitable wire grades — just ask us.
