Shelving & Racking Specialists

We’ve been designing and installing racking systems for clients across multiple industries for over 30 years. No matter what your storage requirements are, we can help create the ideal solution for your business. 

Longspan Racking and Heavy Duty Shelving is ideal when products are handled manually rather than by forklift truck. The beam loading capacity is generally less than pallet racking although most weight loadings are available. Palletised products can be stored at floor level with the loose stock being stored above.

The frames and beams come in a variety of sizes to suit different application requirements and popular decking materials include chipboard and solid steel panels.

Longspan Racking can be adapted for specific applications such as door storage.

We provide a wide range of storage racking solutions and racking systems to help you make the most of your space. Get in touch with us to find out more about our Industrial Racking and Warehouse shelving through systems and metal racking solutions.
