C60018
Manufactured by Wanhao Industry in Zhangzhou, China, for export programmes. Colour and size customisation are open where the specification table below says so.
What This Model Is
This shelf unit, C60018, is one of the 109 models Wanhao currently lists under shelf. The frame is fabricated and coated on site, and the non-metal parts are fitted and checked against the frame rather than against a drawing alone. It suits r who need the carton plan and the specification agreed before the price is signed.
Every model in the catalogue is quoted with its own carton drawing and loading plan. What the factory can confirm today is in the specification table below; what it cannot is marked TBC rather than filled in with a plausible number.

2 to 6 tier formats
One family covers a low sideboard-height unit up to a full-height bookcase.
Industrial and Nordic finishes
Black frame with oak-effect shelves, white frame with white shelves, and other combinations across the range.
What This Model Is Specified Against
Every point below is a decision taken before production on C60018, not a check added afterwards.
- Shelves bowing under loadShelf thickness and support spacing are set per model so the span carries the load the product is sold for.
- Units that lean away from the wallLadder and tall units are designed with an anchor point and the frame geometry to sit stable.
- Assembly that takes an hourParts are numbered and the hardware pack is sorted by step so the customer is not sorting screws on the floor.

What It Is Made Of
Wanhao works in powder-coated steel tube, cold-rolled steel sheet, MDF, melamine-faced board, tempered glass, bamboo, and upholstery fabric and PU. The exact build-up for this model is confirmed on the specification sheet at quotation — the old catalogue did not publish it, and guessing it here would not help you cost the product.

How This Model Is Produced
Material intake
Steel, panel, glass and fabric received against the model specification.
Cutting and forming
Tube and sheet cut, bent and pressed to the frame drawing.
Welding and assembly
Joints made where the drawing places them, then dressed.
Surface preparation
Parts prepared so the powder coating holds.
Powder coating
Coated on the line, colour matched to the approved sample.
Surface components
Panel, glass, bamboo or upholstered parts fitted and checked against the frame.
Packing
Packed to the signed carton drawing with the specified internal protection.
Inspection and loading
Sampled against the agreed AQL, then loaded to the agreed plan.
How It Compares
Against a lower-gauge import
A thinner-gauge equivalent will look identical in a photograph and fail at the joint under the same load. The gauge on C60018 is fixed per the drawing and held for the life of the order.
Against buying frame and surface from two suppliers
Splitting the frame and the surface across two factories means two QC standards and a fit problem nobody owns. C60018 is fabricated and fitted in one plant.
Assembly and Care
- Keep the carton until the unit is fully assembled and checked.
- Lay the parts out in the order shown on the instruction sheet before picking up a tool.
- Fit all fixings loosely first, square the unit, then tighten.
- Level the unit on the floor it will actually stand on, not on the packing carton.
- Re-check the fixings after the first few weeks of use, as with any assembled furniture.

Questions About This Model
Can you produce C60018 in a different colour?
Colour customisation is available on this model where the specification table shows Color: Customized. Send a RAL reference or a physical sample and it is confirmed on a pre-production sample.
How is C60018 packed for export?
Packing is fixed on a carton drawing agreed before production. Carton size, board grade, internal protection and the container loading plan are confirmed in writing for this model.
Are wall anchors supplied?
Anchor provision depends on the model and the destination market. Confirm with the sales team before you list.
Can the shelf heights be adjusted?
Adjustability is model-specific. Fixed-tier and adjustable-tier models both exist in the range.
Can we change the number of tiers?
Yes, on customised models. A tier change usually needs new frame tooling and is quoted with a sample.
