Our stillages, including tube stackers and U stackers, are the scaffold storage solution of choice for construction professionals. Engineered to store 48.3mm scaffold tube securely and visibly, these stackers offer a compact, transport-ready design that improves material flow and on-site safety.
Available in two sizes — 48 tube and 78 tube capacities — these metal stillages are ideal for bulk transport or static storage. Their open U-frame allows fast access and prevents unnecessary manual lifting. Optional galvanised finish available for extended service life.

- Compact vertical design - Saves ground space while organising scaffold tubes clearly.
- U-stack construction - Load remains stable without banding or additional securing.

HERMEQ stillages, including our popular tube stackers, are engineered to eliminate inefficiencies in scaffolding tube management. Whether you’re handling hundreds of metres of steel tubing or preparing equipment for transport, these U stackers provide a systematic approach to reduce manual labour, avoid loose bundles, and streamline movement across the site.
The base of each stacker supports easy insertion of scaffold tube with the first layer locked beneath the angled hooks, allowing the rest of the stack to remain self-contained. This means less time spent handballing and strapping individual tubes. As a result, site operatives can load, unload, and relocate equipment faster and more safely.
Ideal for contractors working on major infrastructure builds, commercial scaffolding installations or plant maintenance, these metal stillages can be forklifted and nested as needed. Their space-saving footprint and mechanical compatibility make them an asset for tight access sites or depots managing large inventories.
HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Site Storage and Stillages, as well as Handling & Lifting equipment such as Carry Cages and Tipping Skips, conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

Practical Use Cases:
- Scaffolding firms storing standard 48.3mm steel tubes safely and visibly
- Construction companies reducing time lost to loose tube bundling
- Depot and yard operations seeking stackable stillages for fleet organisation
Designed with simplicity in mind, HERMEQ’s stillages enhance site logistics by reducing double-handling and freeing up site operatives from time-consuming manual sorting. Each U stacker locks the bottom layer in place without external restraints, making crane lifts or forklift shifts more predictable and secure.
