What do MC&P’s customers put in stillages?
MC&P’s customers across the UK rely on stillages by MC&P to load, store, move and carry bulky, heavy-duty products in demanding work environments. Stillages by MC&P are designed, engineered and fully-welded using mild steel, incorporating strong box section steel for legs and framework to ensure the integrity of every stillage, cage and pallet.
We don’t use angle steel, which offers less strength, lower safe working load capacity, and reduces the useful lifespan of your stillage.

Customised stillages, with features such as castor wheels, bespoke sizes and access features such as hatch doors or drop fronts, enable our customers to put almost any product in their versatile, tough and hardwearing metal stillages from MC&P.
