Meet the Elements® XTRA High Density Top Rail Storage System: More Storage, Same Space

Cambro is expanding the Elements XTRA line with a high-density Top Rail design that is built for operators who need more capacity in the footprint they already have. Anchored by the trusted Camshelving® platform, this system elevates the track overhead, keeps floors open, and turns tight rooms into high-capacity, easy-to-clean storage.

What Sets This Top Rail Apart

  • Low-contact casters: Purpose-built to minimize friction and floor wear, reducing push effort with heavy loads across a variety of surfaces.
  • Smooth-gliding rollers: Maintain consistent maneuverability, a “feel the difference” upgrade compared with typical top-rail systems.
  • Active aisle, better flow: With the rail above, you maintain a clear, active aisle so carts can roll in and out easily. That means faster replenishment, smoother picks, and fewer traffic jams during peak hours.

Capacity That Fits Your Footprint

Need more room without more room? The Top Rail layout can deliver 30–40% more usable storage within the same footprint, translating your square feet into practical, day-to-day shelf space for dry, cooler, or freezer environments.

Hygiene and Daily Cleanability

Removable shelf plates are dishwasher-safe and embedded with Camguard® antimicrobial to prevent bacteria growth. Because the track is overhead, the floor stays accessible for quick mop-downs.

Modularity That Saves Time (and Sanity)
