In Pakistan, the kitchen is not just a room.
It is where mornings begin with chai.
Where Eid dishes are prepared.
Where late-night conversations happen quietly over leftovers.
And in most homes, space is limited — but expectations are not.
When someone searches for kitchen racks in Pakistan, they are not looking for decoration.
They are looking for:
✔ Stability
✔ Load strength
✔ Heat resistance
✔ Moisture durability
✔ Long-term performance
This guide is written from a manufacturer’s perspective — because what holds your microwave should never be guesswork.

The Reality of Kitchen Racks and Stands in Pakistan
Most Pakistani kitchens deal with:
✔ Limited counter space
✔ Heavy appliances
✔ Steam and humidity
✔ Uneven flooring
✔ Daily continuous use
Now calculate this realistically:
Microwave: 20–25 kg
Oven or air fryer: 10–20 kg
Utensils & storage: 15–20 kg
That’s easily 50–60 kg on one structure.
A decorative stand cannot handle that.
You need engineering.
The MetalX Manufacturing Difference – Made in Karachi 🧱
Every MetalX rack is manufactured inside our facility in Karachi.
Not imported.
Not rebranded.
Not outsourced.
Built with:
✔ 18-gauge steel tubing
✔ Fully welded frame structure
✔ 100kg+ total load capacity
✔ 25kg+ per shelf capacity
✔ Rust-resistant stoving enamel
✔ Automotive-grade baked coating
18 Gauge Steel – The Backbone
We use 18-gauge structural steel tubing because:
✔ It resists bending
✔ It maintains alignment under load
✔ It transfers weight vertically
✔ It prevents long-term deformation
Thin decorative tubes flex.
18-gauge steel holds.
Fully Welded Frame – No Joint Movement
All racks are:
✔ Permanently welded
✔ Reinforced at stress points
✔ Designed for appliance vibration
When microwaves operate, micro-vibrations occur.
Bolt-only racks loosen over time.
Welded frames remain rigid.
100kg+ Load Bearing Capacity
Each MetalX rack is engineered for:
✔ 100kg+ overall capacity
✔ 25kg+ safe load per shelf
This allows:
✔ Microwave on top
✔ Oven or air fryer below
✔ Storage without fear
Not theoretical strength.
Practical strength.
Why Cheap Kitchen Racks in Pakistan Fail
Many low-cost options use:
✖ Thin steel
✖ Bolt-only joints
✖ Basic spray paint
✖ No structural testing
Over time:
✔ Screws loosen
✔ Frame twists
✔ Paint chips
✔ Rust begins
✔ Wobbling increases
A kitchen rack should never become unstable under appliance weight.
Structural Comparison – What Actually Makes the Difference
| Feature | Typical Market Rack | MetalX Kitchen Rack |
|---|---|---|
| Steel Gauge | Thin decorative tubing | 18-gauge structural steel |
| Joint Type | Bolt-only assembly | Fully welded frame |
| Load Capacity | 40–60kg total (varies) | 100kg+ total |
| Shelf Strength | 10–15kg approx | 25kg+ per shelf |
| Paint Type | Basic powder coat | Rust-resistant stoving enamel (automotive grade baked) |
| Heat Tolerance | Moderate | High appliance-ready tolerance |
| Moisture Resistance | Surface level | Sealed weld + baked coating protection |
| Stability | May wobble over time | Structurally rigid & balanced |
This is not marketing.
This is engineering.
Rust-Resistant Stoving Enamel – Automotive Grade Finish 🔥
Our racks are coated with:
✔ Rust-resistant stoving enamel
✔ Baked automotive-grade paint
✔ High-temperature curing process
This creates:
✔ Hard protective coating
✔ Heat resistance
✔ Moisture protection
✔ Long-term durability
Pakistani kitchens are humid environments.
Coating quality directly affects lifespan.
Designed for Real Appliance Use
Microwaves generate internal heat.
Air fryers push hot air downward.
Ovens radiate warmth.
A rack must tolerate:
✔ Thermal exposure
✔ Expansion cycles
✔ Daily operation
The combination of 18-gauge steel and baked enamel finish ensures structural stability.
Small Kitchen Optimization – Smart Vertical Storage
In apartments and portion homes:
✔ Floor space is limited
✔ Counter space is valuable
✔ Vertical storage is essential
A properly designed rack:
✔ Elevates appliances
✔ Frees countertop area
✔ Improves kitchen workflow
✔ Reduces clutter
