Shelving storage units are uniquely engineered units that store inventory within warehouses or other industrial environments. They are indispensable in the pharmaceutical, logistics, automotive, and retail industries. At NIEROS®, we design comprehensive solutions that support optimisation, organisation, adjustability, accessibility, effortless handling, and safety. Our products enable efficient use of horizontal and vertical space in large-scale and small facilities.
While industrial shelves and racks may seem simple, they are highly engineered items where every measurement is precise and each load capacity is carefully calculated. Industrial storage solutions undergo rigorous testing to endure the harshest environments.
The basic structural elements of warehouse shelving racks are vertical columns or uprights, and they determine the height of the unit. Shelving is modular and often adjustable in height. It was engineered for safe weight distribution, meaning each unit has a specified maximum shelf load. Exceeding the number can compromise the structural integrity. The racking and shelving systems are made of high-quality stainless steel, and the facility can choose between multiple variations. The systems can be customised to deliver optimal stability and versatility.
How to know when your industrial storage solutions need an upgrade
Shelving storage units are critical in several industries. A properly chosen shelving system influences everything happening in your facility. It can streamline procedures, enhance productivity, and lower operational costs. Because storage equipment often requires a significant initial investment, many facilities continue using outdated units for as long as possible. But when is it time to upgrade?
An upgrade is critical when the warehouse shelving racks can no longer handle the volume of inventory. The latter can happen due to seasonal peaks, changes in item size, or business growth. If your staff lacks adequate space to store inventory, it’s time to upgrade your equipment. After all, warehouse capacity should not hold your business back. Another clear sign that it is time for an upgrade is when locating, picking, or restocking inventory takes too long.
Warehouses often change the type of cargo they handle but continue using the same operational processes and storage layouts. A quick upgrade can help facilities redesign their space based on actual usage and current needs. Another reason to upgrade warehouse shelving racks is structural issues. These increase the risk of collapse and are a safety hazard.
Custom industrial storage solutions
Warehouse shelving racks should always be tailor-made to fit each facility and its needs perfectly. Warehouse systems are comprehensive solutions providing simple storage. They maintain precision and reliable stock control while fully utilising storage space. Industrial environments and warehouses often operate on the FIFO (first-in, first-out) principle, ensuring maximum item quality.
Facilities can implement different systems, including empty crate, full crate, and pallet warehouse systems. The latter can then be a gravitational, pick and place, or fully automated warehouse. Shelving storage units can be custom-made for both large-scale production areas with high storage capacity and facilities with smaller storage needs. Due to their unique design, they comply with the strictest hygienic demands of HACCP, IFS, NSF, and other standards.
The flexible configuration of each unit guarantees maximum space utilisation while enabling quick and efficient order picking. Economical storage management optimises both time and costs, ensuring precise cargo control. Additionally, the racks can be integrated with advanced technologies such as barcode and RFID destination tracking.
