Frequently Asked Questions

What is Systainer?

A Systainer is a stackable storage system. Engineered and manufactured by Tanos in Germany, the Systainer is known the world over for it light weight, modularity and portability. The standardized footprint and design retains compatibility with products made 30 years ago, while also pushing to the future and new offerings for the systainer family. Systainers are used by individuals, businesses and OEMs like Festool.

What is a fitout?

It may seem obvious, but a Systainer is a plastic box. When you add tools or materials to it, you make it yours. That is the start of a fitout. The next step is adding inserts which can be off the shelf or custom to help organize the Systainer and its contents. Some users take it further adding color scheme or labels to the outside. Every fitout is unique, and what matters is that it is yours and meets your needs.

Who created these fitouts?

The Systainer community did! There fitouts were voluntarily submitted to show off what is possible. Some users wish to remain anonymous, others like to share their profile. Some fitouts are sponsored.

Can I submit a fitout?

Why did you make this site?

As a systainer user and dealer, Sys Tim fielded dozens of questions asking how to use a systainer or what tools fits in which systainer. Therefore he was motivated to build this site where the Systainer community can share their experiences and how they fitout and use systainers.

So you are telling me Systainer Store created this site?

Yep, Systainer Store desired a place for the Systainer Community to post and share their systainers. It can also be a bit of a reference to see what tools fit which size systainer. So this site is built and maintained by Systainer Store and at times sponsored by brands that bring synergy to the Systainer community.

And this site has affiliate links?

That is also correct. It takes time and money and talent to build and maintain this site. Sponsorships and Affiliate income are a couple of the ways to pay for these expenses. We don’t go out of our way to make entries for affiliate income or to promote specific products for affiliate income. We simply add links to the fitouts while maintaining each fitout’s intent.
