ESSENTIO® VS ADD® Storage Accessories by Vauth-Sagel
Description

FIT Vauth-Sagel ESSENTIO® VS ADD® Storage Accessories are a modular system of organiser boxes, dividers, and hanging hooks designed to customise cabinet pull-outs and internal joinery. Engineered in Germany, the components feature minimalist proportions and finishes that complement ESSENTIO® pull-out trays, shelves, and baskets.  

The range comprises three core component types:  

  • VS ADD® Box: Antimicrobial plastic storage boxes designed for small items. Available in short (70mm high) and tall (140mm high) profiles, with square (106x106mm) and rectangular (106x213mm) footprints. Boxes are available in Lava Grey and White, with matching solid or ventilated lids available in Lava Grey and Silver Grey. All plastic boxes are dishwasher safe.  
  • VS ADD® Separator: Magnetic shelf dividers designed to create customisable compartments on metal shelves and baskets. Constructed from matching materials and finishes, each separator incorporates two integrated magnets for positioning and protective rubber pads to prevent surface scratching.  
  • VS ADD® Hook: Hanging hook panels available in 3-hook and 5-hook configurations. 
Key Features
  • Modular Customisation: Allows flexible internal organization of pull-out larders, trays, and drawers without requiring permanent fixings or drilled holes.  
  • Antimicrobial Protection: VS ADD® plastic boxes and lids incorporate an antimicrobial surface finish.  
  • Magnetic Attachment: Separators utilize two integrated high-strength magnets to secure position on metal trays while rubber lining prevents surface scratching.  
  • Dishwasher Safe Components: Plastic VS ADD® Boxes are suitable for standard dishwasher cleaning.  
  • ESSENTIO® Visual Alignment: Components share exact material specifications, colourways, and minimalist profiles with the broader ESSENTIO storage range. 
Scope of Use
  • Vauth-Sagel kitchen storage pull outs and accessories are suitable for residential use throughout the home; kitchens, pantries, sculleries. They also have applications in laundries, home offices, and garages.
  • Recommended for use with VS TAL Larders and VS SUB Larders, as well as general internal joinery drawers, shelves, and wall units.
  • Suitable for holding small loose items, holding plastic VS ADD® Boxes in place on metal shelves via magnetic separators, or hanging tools via hook rails.
Limitations on Use
  • VS ADD® Separators require a ferrous metal substrate (such as ESSENTIO formed sheet steel trays) for magnetic adhesion.  
  • Plastic components should not be exposed to direct heat sources exceeding normal domestic dishwasher or joinery operating temperatures.  

Suitable for residential use, taking into account the following:

  • Recommended maximum cabinet widths, depths and heights.
  • Be familiar with the load capacity of the unit and do not exceed it.
  • To avoid base panel sagging, sufficient support for the cabinet base is required directly under the mechanism runner. Warranty depends on adequate support being installed with the pantry.
  • To avoid base panel sagging, sufficient support for the cabinet base is required directly under the mechanism runner. Warranty depends on adequate support being installed with the pantry.
  • When opening and closing unit or when putting items into it, do not apply strong downward force as this may damage the runners.
  • Do not use caustic cleaners on any part of the unit. Some dishwasher powders and laundry powders are particularly caustic, as are dry salt, salt water and any citrus juice. If they spill onto or into the unit, remove the powder promptly with a vacuum cleaner, soft brush or damp cloth taking care to re-wipe the surface clean after rinsing cloth free of substance and ensure it is dried well.
