Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are clear small parts bins?
Clear small parts bins are storage bins molded from see-through plastic so operators can identify contents without opening the container or pulling it off the shelf. They come in hopper-front, stack, and large-capacity formats, letting you match the bin style to how parts are picked. CustomMHS carries clear small parts bins from Akro-Mils and Quantum in a range of sizes and duty ratings.
How are clear bins different from solid color bins?
The main difference is visibility. Solid bins rely on labels alone, so a worker has to trust the label or open the bin to confirm what is inside. Clear bins show both the part and the quantity remaining, which helps during picking, cycle counting, and replenishment. Many facilities use clear bins for items that look similar, such as fasteners, fittings, and electronic components, and use color-coded bins for kits or departments.
Should I choose a hopper front bin or a stack container?
Choose a clear hopper front bin when parts are picked frequently, and workers need open front access from a shelf or rack. Choose a Clear View stack container when you need enclosed, higher-capacity storage and want contents protected between uses. If parts volume exceeds what a standard small parts bin holds, the Quantum Clear View Large Hopper Front Bins and Clear View Stack Containers give you added capacity without giving up visual identification.
How durable are clear plastic bins in an industrial setting?
Clear bins are built for daily handling on shelving, workbenches, and carts, and heavy duty options such as the Quantum Heavy Duty Clear Small Part Bins are made for repeated use in demanding areas. For high-traffic workstations where bins are pulled and returned many times per shift, a heavy-duty rating is worth the added cost. For lighter storage of small hardware or slower-moving inventory, standard clear small parts bins are usually sufficient.
How do clear small parts bins help your facility?
Clear small parts bins reduce the time operators spend confirming what is in a container, which shortens picks and lowers the chance of grabbing the wrong item on an assembly line. Because stock levels are visible at a glance, supervisors can spot a bin running low during a walk through instead of finding out when a line stops. In kitting and inventory areas, see-through storage also makes cycle counts faster, since staff can check quantities visually rather than opening and restacking bins.
