VDL INSECT CRATES SOLUTIONS

VDL Insect Systems designs and manufactures insect crates for the insect industry. By combining the experience and knowledge of insect growers with engineering and automation expertise of the VDL Groep, VDL Insect Systems is able to produce high quality, state-of-the-art insect crates. Currently, the VDL Mealworm Crate is commercially available.

VDL MEALWORM CRATE
The VDL Mealworm Crate is designed to fit the needs of a mealworm grower specifically. The edge height and ventilation space are tailored to the mealworm production process. This results in ideal usages of space for mealworm cultivation and thus high efficiency in space use. The flat bottom, round edges and limited pockets make the crate very hygienic, easy to clean and unappealing for pests. Furthermore, the flat bottom minimizes turbulency of airflow and ensures good cooling as air can freely flow along the bottom surface. The large size of the crate (600x800) increases handling efficiency over smaller size crates.

SUITABLE FO ALL-SIZE MEALWORM GROWERS
The VDL Mealworm Crate is especially designed to be suitable for both manual and industrial insect production facilities. The crates are easy to handle manually, while having the advantage of being larger than the conventional (600x400 mm) crates. On the one hand, feature like grips, easy stacking and alternate stackability make the crate very suitable for small scale production sites. On the other hand, the crate is also very suitable for large scale production sites because of the large size (600x800 mm), optimized design for automation and the possibility to work with crate identification. Hence, the VDL Mealworm Crate is suitable for all sizes of mealworm growers and is the ideal crate to grow along with your mealworm production facility.
