Wanzl is creating more space in shopping trolleys: the new ELX shopping trolley model offers space for a drinks crate or multiple PET bottle packs on its retractable rack. The ELX model is a further innovation from the EL shopping trolley series developed by Wanzl in co-operation with the retail trade. One special feature of the successful EL series is the elegant chassis without any racks for storing merchandise to prevent inventory differences. To create lots of space in the trolley basket at the same time, Wanzl has added the ELX model to the EL series. With its retractable rack at the rear, the Wanzl ELX is a universal solution for all eventualities – be it at the supermarket or at a discounter.
In the future, the ELX shopping trolley will allow all commercially available drinks crates and PET bottle packs to be easily stowed at knee height on the integrated tray. A single touch is all that is needed to extend the rack, which then automatically latches into the end position. The customer then has both hands free for stowing the drinks crates or PET bottle packs. The trolley basket is available in four versions with a volume ranging from 75 to 185 litres so there is also enough space for other items and therefore for additional purchases and increased turnover. A further advantage is that, even when fully loaded with heavy items, the new shopping trolley can still be manoeuvred and steered with ease. The ELX model also increases security in-store: the items stowed on the rack are directly in the line of sight of till staff, helping to reduce inventory differences.
