Automotive Storage Details

In the automotive sector, shelving and storage solutions require meticulous planning and customisation to cater to the industry’s unique needs. Automotive parts vary significantly in size, weight, and fragility, necessitating versatile and robust storage systems. Shelving must be sturdy enough to hold heavy items like engines and transmissions, while also being adaptable for smaller, delicate components. Considering the vast inventory spectrum, the ability to adjust shelf heights and configurations is crucial. Efficient space utilisation is key, as automotive warehouses often deal with a high volume of parts, requiring maximisation of both vertical and horizontal space. Accessibility and organisation are paramount to streamline the retrieval process, reducing time and effort in locating parts. Additionally, safety and compliance are critical, with shelving designed to prevent falls and facilitate easy movement of staff and equipment. This sector often integrates technology for inventory tracking, making compatibility with such systems a vital consideration. Overall, the automotive sector demands a storage solution that balances strength, flexibility and efficiency to maintain a smooth and effective supply chain. Depending on the products of the business and warehouse, one of our racking and storage systems will work better for your needs and our expert team is happy to offer support and advice to ensure you find the perfect solution for your needs.

Short Span Shelving

Short span shelving consists of uprights and shelves that can be adjusted to suit products of different heights and weights which makes it a suitable solution for smaller items as well as larger products. Short span shelving can incorporate components such as dividers, door fronts, drawers and back and side cladding for extra security, protection and organisation.

Longspan Shelving

This racking is mounted on motorised bases meaning the racks can move to create or remove space, increasing storage capacity and saving up to 40% of space required by standard pallet racking. Longspan shelving is ideal for large and bulky items and it can be operated manually, by remote control or by computer.

Multi-Tier Shelving

Multi-tier shelving is perfect for maximising the use of vertical space and reducing the business’s storage footprint. The shelving is multi-tiered with integral walkways and stairs and is often used where storage or archiving of many articles is required, often with a low turnover.

Mobile Pallet Racking

This shelving system utilises a wide range of frame and beam sizes which allows us to create and install a customised, flexible solution that meets your business needs. Mobile pallet racking is designed to suit commercial and industrial warehouses where long, unrestricted shelving areas are required. Perfect for hand-loaded storage of bulky or heavy items, it is also suitable for storing products in small and varying quantities with split turnovers.
