Choosing the Right Storage for Building Materials

Choosing the right racking for heavy building materials - a blog post by Stakapal - Leaders in Innovative Warehouse and Yard Storage Racking Solutions and Cantilever Racking Specialists

When it comes to storage for building materials like plasterboard, cement, and aggregates, the team at Stakapal understand that selecting the right racking system is crucial for both safety and efficiency.

Durability and Flexibility

Stakapal’s SR2000 Series Pallet Racking is an ideal choice, offering a robust and adjustable structure that can accommodate various product sizes and weights.

This flexibility is essential as stock profiles often change, necessitating adaptable storage solutions.

Damage Prevention

Proper racking helps reduce stock damage, a common issue with heavy materials.

Systems like Cantilever Racking are particularly effective in preventing damage to products that are stored horizontally, such as timber or long items.

Safety First

Ensuring the safety of your warehouse operations should always be a top priority. Proper racking improves site safety by enhancing aisle discipline, preventing accidents, and ensuring better stock visibility. With better organisation, workers can navigate the warehouse more efficiently, reducing the risk of injury.

Safety is a top priority for Stakapal, which is why all of our racking undertakes rigorous testing and independently verified by SEMA (Storage Equipment Manufacturers Association), and our in-house team of installers and inspectors have all undertaken the appropriate examinations and certifications (SARI and SEIRS Approved) to ensure your racking and warehouse is well looked after during the process of installation and inspection.

Maximising Space

Efficient use of space is another key consideration. By selecting a racking system that optimises vertical and horizontal storage, you can significantly increase your storage capacity without needing to expand your physical space.

Storage for Building Materials - The Verdict

Choosing the right racking for heavy building materials involves balancing durability, flexibility, damage prevention, and safety. By doing so, you can improve your warehouse’s efficiency and ensure the safe handling of your products.
