Cantilever Rack Project for Steel Pipe Storage in Mexico
A metal distribution company in Mexico needed a better storage solution for steel pipes, long profiles, and structural materials. Their previous warehouse setup relied on floor stacking, which wasted space, made material access difficult, and created handling inefficiencies during daily operations.
To solve this problem, we supplied a custom cantilever rack system designed specifically for long material storage. The solution improved access, reduced clutter, and helped the customer store steel products more safely and efficiently.
Project Information
Storage Challenges in Long Material Warehouses
Warehouses that store long materials such as steel pipes and profiles often struggle with space efficiency and material access. Before this project, the customer faced the same common issues.
Floor stacking made the warehouse look crowded and reduced usable space. It also required unnecessary material movement whenever workers needed to access items stored underneath other bundles. In addition, long steel materials were difficult to organize safely using standard shelving systems.
The customer’s main objective was to achieve a safer, cleaner, and more efficient long material storage system.
Custom Cantilever Rack Solution
To meet the customer’s requirements, we developed a custom cantilever rack system for steel pipe storage.
Cantilever racks are ideal for long and bulky materials because they provide open-front access without vertical front columns. This makes it much easier for forklifts to load and unload steel pipes, profiles, and other long products.
Each arm was designed to support up to 1,200 kg, giving the customer a stable and durable storage solution for heavy metal materials. The rack structure also helped improve warehouse layout and made long product handling more efficient.
Why the Customer Chose Our Long Material Storage Solution
Project Results
After installing the custom cantilever rack system, the customer gained a much more efficient storage layout for steel pipes and structural materials.
The warehouse became easier to manage, material retrieval became faster, and the overall storage area became cleaner and more organized. The new solution also helped reduce handling risks and improved operational safety in daily warehouse work.
The customer now has a long-term storage system that supports efficient inventory turnover and future expansion.
