Project Overview
Customer: Manufacturing Company
Date Completed: April 2016
A manufacturing company reached out to us with a need for a reliable storage solution for their long, bulky products. After evaluating their space and specific needs, we recommended the installation of a U-pallet cantilever racking system to maximize their storage capacity and improve workflow efficiency.
Scope of Work
We provided a full-service solution that included:
Site Measurement and Auto-CAD Layout Design: We began by taking precise measurements of the facility and designing a layout to optimize space while meeting the customer’s storage requirements.
Supply, Delivery, and Installation: After finalizing the design, we supplied the U-pallet cantilever racking system, delivered it to the site, and handled the full installation process.
The Challenge
The primary challenge was the need to store large, heavy, and long items. The client required a storage solution that could accommodate U-pallets—a specialized pallet type with a U-shape design. These pallets are often used to store oversized products, which made it crucial to provide a system that allowed for efficient storage and easy access to materials.
Our Solution
We designed and installed a custom U-pallet cantilever racking system that could efficiently store and organize the client’s long products. The open design of the racking system allowed for full accessibility to the U-pallets, ensuring that materials could be easily retrieved when needed. This solution was built to handle heavy-duty loads, making it ideal for the manufacturing sector.
Results
The installation of the U-pallet cantilever racking system helped the manufacturing company organize their materials more efficiently. The open-arm design maximized their storage space while providing easy access to their long products, ultimately boosting their operational efficiency and reducing downtime.
