Thorinox TECGS-1848 48" x 18" Wire Shelf Carbon Grey Specifications
Thorinox is a leading Canadian brand specialized in high-quality stainless steel commercial kitchen equipment. Known for durability and hygienic design, their product range includes work tables, sinks, shelving, and customized food preparation solutions. In the Canadian market, Thorinox operates a sophisticated logistics network with primary distribution through Distex in Quebec and a dedicated Western Canadian warehouse in British Columbia.
Shipping & Logistics
Thorinox utilizes its dual-coastal presence to minimize transit times and freight costs across Canada. Because stainless steel units are heavy and prone to denting if mishandled, they are treated as high-density, fragile cargo.
- Fulfillment Hubs: Eastern Canada (Distex): Located in Quebec, this hub manages all logistics for Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritimes. Western Canada: A dedicated warehouse in British Columbia services BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.
- Lead Times:In-Stock Units: Standard work tables and sinks typically dispatch within 2 to 4 business days from the nearest regional hub. Custom/Special Orders: For specialized configurations or high-volume projects, lead times generally range from 4 to 8 weeks.
- Logistics: All units are professionally crated or reinforced with heavy-duty cardboard and secured to skids for LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight.
- Inspection Requirement: A visual inspection is mandatory upon delivery. You must check for "stainless steel pitting," deep scratches, or frame warping. Any transit damage must be documented on the Bill of Lading (BOL) at the time of receipt to preserve freight claim rights.
Warranty
Thorinox provides a manufacturer warranty that reflects the industrial-grade build of their equipment.
- Standard Coverage: Most new Thorinox professional equipment carries a 1-year limited parts and labour warranty from the original date of purchase (not to exceed 18 months from the date of shipment).
- Component Integrity: The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the stainless steel structure, welding points, and mechanical components (like faucet cartridges or drawer slides).
- Service Authorization: All warranty-related service must be pre-authorized and is typically facilitated through Distex in the East or the BC regional office in the West.
- On-Site Service: For large installed units like sinks or heavy-duty work suites, on-site service is provided within a specific radius of major urban centers.
Service & Support
Technical support is localized to ensure rapid response times for busy commercial kitchens.
- Authorized Technicians: Repairs are performed by a national network of factory-trained technicians. In Quebec, service is primarily managed by the Distex network; in the West, it is handled by BC-based service partners.
- Parts Availability: A comprehensive inventory of genuine replacement parts—including adjustable bullet feet, backsplash bracing, and faucet repair kits—is maintained at both the BC and QC warehouses and through Parts Town Canada.
- Technical Consultations: Support is available to assist facility managers with sizing requirements, NSF compliance questions, and custom fabrication workflows.
Exceptions and Exclusions
To maintain the validity of the warranty, the equipment must be maintained according to professional sanitation standards.
- Chemical Damage: The use of highly corrosive cleaning agents (such as high-concentration bleach or muriatic acid) that cause "pitting" or surface rust on Type 304 or 430 stainless steel is not covered.
- Improper Installation: Damage resulting from incorrect plumbing connections for sinks or improper leveling on uneven floors is excluded.
- Mechanical Abuse: Dents or structural failures caused by exceeding the rated weight capacity of shelving or worktables are considered operator error.
- Consumables: Wearable items like plastic feet inserts or faucet washers are generally excluded from the primary warranty after an initial 90-day defect period.
- Freight Damage: Any damage sustained during transportation is a freight matter. Visible damage must be reported to the carrier at the time of delivery to facilitate a claim with the logistics provider.
