Usage Tips:
- The average 3.5 to 4 oz. (100g to 120g) bar size can stack about 100 to a tray (up to about 25 lbs. (11.4 kg)
- We have found that the quickest way to stack and dry your bars is to stand them on the long edge.
- Space about 1/8″ (3mm) between the bars and about 1/4″ (6mm) between the rows.
- If the bars are under 3/4″ (19mm), you may need to place a row on top of the bars, straddling the rows.
- This method works very well for small sample bars, even down to 3/8″ (9mm) or less. This method locks them together and allows you to move the tray around.
- Speed drying by placing fans around trays. The slotted design and open sides allow maximum airflow around the product.
- Try our Soap Tray Dolly (solid tray on wheels). It is inexpensive, durable, and works on almost all applications. It also doubles as another tray.
Drying Tray FAQ:
Increasing your airflow between your bars is the best way, and the unique design of our Soap Drying Trays helps with this! They can decrease your drying time by 25% or more.
Once you’ve increased the airflow, you can also:
1. Use Fans: The use of fans in your drying area will speed up the air flow and allow your bars to dry more quickly. Our vented tray design will help facilitate this air flow between your trays.
2. Use Dehumidifier: This will pull water out of the air and make your soap dry faster
3. Use a Water Discount: Discounting your water will speed up your drying process.
You can put your trays on Tray Dollies. We carry several options. For larger operations, it can be useful to stack several stacks on a pallet and move with a pallet jack.
Around 6’ (1.8 meters) is average, but you can go 7’ or 8’ (2 to 2.5 meters) if you want to.
