Protect the Integrity of your Geolgogical Core Samples
Precision insights begin with preserved core. UCP core trays provide secure, sequential storage for drill core samples — keeping them aligned, intact, and clearly labeled from rig site through logging, photography, and long-term archiving — preventing breakage, misalignment, loss of orientation, and data errors.
Designed with input from experienced geologists and field professionals, UCP Core Tray systems improve operational efficiency, reduce handling risks, and support health and safety compliance. Their robust construction and modular stackable design, reduce transport costs. Protecting core, from, drill site to long-term storage.
Read on to explore the benefits our system offers and why it’s trusted by teams managing core every day.
Lightweight, ergonomic construction reduces strain and fatigue, helping crews work more efficiently in the field.
Robust, impact-resistant materials protect valuable core from damage during transport, handling, and long-term storage.
Secure stacking reduces footprint in vehicles, core sheds, and containers, helping streamline logistics and lower transport costs.
Simple assembly and intuitive design reduce setup time, allowing teams to focus on productive work rather than equipment
Integrated end-label areas ensure sample information remains visible and readable, reducing the risk of misidentification
Flat-pack or space-efficient design increases shipment density, helping minimise freight volume and storage space requirements.
Durable materials are designed to withstand tough environments, repeated handling, and long-term outdoor exposure.
Built-in drainage helps prevent water build-up, keeping samples cleaner and reducing contamination or degradation over time.
Designed for extended storage without warping, cracking, or degradation — helping preserve sample integrity over time.
UCP core trays are designed specifically for the demands of geological mineral exploration, where accurate sample handling, safe transport, and long-term preservation are critical to project success. From active drilling sites to core sheds and long-term storage facilities, they provide a reliable system for managing rock and mineral core throughout the entire exploration lifecycle.
Manufactured from high-quality Zincalume® steel, UCP trays combine durability with practical, field-driven design. Features such as an integrated locking system help prevent sample displacement during transport, while embossed end labels support clear identification and traceability. Built-in drainage channels reduce water accumulation, helping protect samples from contamination, corrosion, or degradation over time.
UCP core trays are available in a range of sizes to accommodate different core diameters and sample lengths. Knowing the exact dimensions and capacities helps streamline field collection, transport, and long-term storage while reducing handling errors.
