ABSTRACT:
A bin for storing and transporting produce includes a bottom, two side walls, and two end walls. The walls and bottom consist of corrugated paperboard that has been reinforced at strategic locations with strips of wood that are stapled to the corrugated board and that are then coated with a resin that includes glass fibers. When the resin has cured, the resulting structure is extremely durable and strong. A white colorant is added to the resin coating to impart a sanitary appearance to it. The bins can be stacked; and because the pallet of a stacked bin fits partly within the bin on which it rests and partly overhangs the bin on which it rests, the pallets may be stacked with considerable safety.
