FAQs

What is the HAY Colour Crate made from?

The HAY Colour Crate is crafted from 100% recycled post-consumer plastic waste, making it an eco-friendly storage solution.

Can this crate be folded for storage?

Is the crate safe for storing food?

Yes, the material used in the HAY Colour Crate is food-safe, making it suitable for storing fruits, vegetables, and other pantry items.

How do I clean my HAY Colour Crate?

You can easily clean your crate with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and let it air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Can I stack multiple HAY Colour Crate together?

Troubleshooting

Crate not stacking securely

Ensure all crates are fully unfolded and locked into place. Check for any obstructions or items protruding from inside the lower crate that might prevent the top crate from sitting flush. Gently align the edges for a stable stack.

Difficulty folding or unfolding the crate

Apply gentle, even pressure when folding or unfolding the crate. Ensure that the locking tabs on the short sides are fully disengaged before attempting to collapse the sides. Do not force the mechanism, as this may cause damage.

Crate appears dirty or has light stains

Wipe the crate with a damp cloth using a solution of mild soap and water. For persistent stains, a soft-bristled brush can be used. Always rinse thoroughly with clean water and let it air dry completely.

Small items are falling through the perforated sides/bottom

The perforated design is intentional for ventilation and aesthetic. For very small items (e.g., pens, hairpins, tiny toys), consider using smaller internal containers, pouches, or fabric liners within the crate to prevent them from falling out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The HAY Colour Crate requires minimal setup. It typically arrives folded flat. To assemble, gently unfold the sides and snap the end panels into place until they are secure. To fold, release the end panels and collapse the sides inward.

Compatibility:

This medium crate is designed to be compatible with other HAY Colour Crate sizes, allowing you to create customized stacking arrangements. It fits comfortably on most standard shelves, tabletops, and inside cupboards, making it a versatile addition to any room layout. The modular design enables creative and efficient storage solutions.

Care:

Cleaning your HAY Colour Crate is straightforward. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a soft brush can be used. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these could damage the recycled plastic material. Given its food-safe nature, it can be washed similarly to other food-grade plastic containers.
