ABSTRACT:
A shelf assembly has a shelf unit and pair of shelf brackets adapted to be mounted on aperture-bearing uprights of a gondola shelving support system. The shelf unit has a product-supporting panel with integral, outwardly and downwardly-extending side flanges adapted to engage outside surfaces of the shelf brackets to limit the lateral movement of said shelf unit. A thin, corrugated support structure is connected to the underside of the panel and spans between the side flanges. The support structure is spaced from the side flanges forming gaps allowing the shelf brackets to contact the underside of the panel to reduce the vertical space occupied by said shelf assembly. Stops associated with the shelf brackets and the shelf unit limit the forward and rearward movement of the shelf with respect to the shelf brackets. Integral front and rear flanges extend upwardly from the panel and provide boundaries for products supported thereon. A channel member is connected to the front flange to provide rigidity and a means to attach label supporting structure. The shelf brackets can be connected to uprights of a shelving support system adaptable to products of various sizes and configurations.
