Raeco’s
shelving
recommendation
charcoal
For a sophisticated and timeless
look, consider black or charcoal
powder coated shelving.
The darker finish makes and
impressive backdrop for colourful
covers and works as well with
Children’s books as it does the
wider collection. Complement the
look with a light timber finish, or
add Charcoal panels to create a
stunning shelving presentation.
Raeco® recommend that rubber
feet be placed at the foot of all
book ends to minimize surface
abrasion typically created by the
movement and contact of book
ends on shelves.
