Specifications
The Drying Rack with 20 Shelves – A2 is an extra-large, heavy-duty storage solution ideal for drying oversized or bulky artworks, including 3D collage projects and wet paintings. Designed to meet the needs of busy early childhood and primary classrooms, this free-standing wire rack supports up to A2-sized paper, offering ample drying capacity while maintaining durability and mobility.
With 20 reinforced metal shelves, this rack is built to prevent even the heaviest projects from sagging or tearing. The shelves are not spring-loaded, providing manual control for easy use and safety. Each shelf can be lifted up individually and supported with side hooks, allowing educators to hold multiple shelves open simultaneously for bulk loading or increased drying height.
The drying rack is fitted with 4 wheels, ensuring it can be moved easily throughout the classroom or shared between learning areas, while remaining stable during use. When not in use, the shelves can be folded down, saving valuable space and making the unit compact for classroom storage. With an assembled size of 62cm (W) x 45cm (D) x 70.5cm (H) and 2.6cm of spacing between shelves, it balances capacity with classroom practicality.
