Why the Stor-Tub suits the garage
Garage and shed storage takes a beating. Tubs get loaded with tools, dragged across concrete and stacked high on shelves. Stor-Tubs were designed for workshops and warehouses first, so they handle home garage use with ease.
Built for heavy loads
Made from tough polypropylene and designed to carry heavy items like power tools, hardware and car care gear.
Stacks with lids, nests without
Fit the lids and Stor-Tubs stack securely. Take the lids off and empty tubs nest inside one another, so spares barely take up any space.
One footprint, three heights
Every Stor-Tub measures 648 x 415mm. Mix 32, 52 and 68 litre tubs on the same shelf and they still line up.
Made in Australia
Fischer has manufactured plastic storage in Mulgrave, Victoria since 1965, so supply is consistent and support is local.
Recycled option: Viro-Tub
Viro-Tubs are the charcoal, recycled version of the Stor-Tub, made in Australia from recycled polypropylene as part of Fischer's Viro range. Same design, same sizes, recycled material.

How to choose storage tubs for a garage or shed
Use this checklist when comparing storage tubs for an Australian garage or shed.
| What to check | Why it matters | Stor-Tub |
|---|---|---|
| Load strength | Garage gear is heavy. Thin tubs bow, crack and split at the handles. | Built for heavy loads |
| Stacking with lids | Stacking uses vertical space, but only if lids carry the weight above. | Stacks securely with lids |
| Nesting when empty | Spare tubs shouldn't take up as much room as full ones. | Nests when unlidded |
| Consistent footprint | Matching footprints line up on shelving and make the most of the space. | 648 x 415mm across all sizes |
| Recycled material | Recycled plastic reuses material that would otherwise go to waste. | Charcoal Viro-Tubs made from recycled polypropylene |
| Australian made | Local manufacturing means consistent supply and local support. | Made in Mulgrave, Victoria |
Frequently asked questions
Are Fischer Stor-Tubs made in Australia?
Yes. Stor-Tubs are made in Australia by Fischer Plastic Products, an Australian family-owned manufacturer that has made plastic storage products in Mulgrave, Victoria since 1965.
Are Stor-Tubs made from recycled plastic?
Yes, as Viro-Tubs. Viro-Tubs (codes ending in V, such as 1H-191V) are the charcoal version of the Stor-Tub, made in Australia from recycled polypropylene as part of Fischer's Viro range. The standard Stor-Tub is blue.
What sizes do Stor-Tubs come in?
Stor-Tubs come in 32 litre (195mm high), 52 litre (265mm high) and 68 litre (390mm high) sizes. All three share the same 648 x 415mm footprint, so they line up neatly on garage shelving.
Do Stor-Tubs stack?
Yes. With lids fitted, Stor-Tubs stack on top of each other. When empty and unlidded they nest inside each other, so spare tubs take up very little room.
Do Stor-Tubs have lids?
Yes. One lid (655 x 425 x 32mm) suits the 32, 52 and 68 litre tubs: 1H-193B in blue or 1H-193V in charcoal recycled polypropylene. It keeps dust off stored items in a garage or shed.
Can Stor-Tubs hold heavy items like tools?
Yes. Stor-Tubs are built for heavy loads such as power tools, hardware and car care gear. For a specific application, contact Fischer for advice.
