Integrated Pallet Racking & Elevated Picking Runways
Custom-engineered deck spans, heavy-duty joists, and integrated stairs built to international AS 4084 and ISO standards.
30,000 m² Manufacturing Facility. 10,000+ Completed Installations.
Direct manufacturer accountability from structural raw coil to electrostatically coated finish.
Industrial warehouses require bespoke structural solutions based on unit load weight, picking throughput, and building ceiling clearances. Guangzhou Heda Shelves Co., Ltd. configures cold-rolled Q235B upright profiles to support dual operational requirements with certified safety factors.
Pallet Rack BaseUtilises heavy-duty teardrop or box-profile pallet racking as the foundational column grid. Supports bulk pallet storage on lower tiers while delivering 500kg to 1200kg/m² uniform distributed load (UDL) on upper steel catwalks.
Multi-Tier PickEngineered for manual picking of loose components, automotive parts, apparel, and hardware. Integrated medium-duty longspan uprights eliminate structural wasted space, providing continuous walkways between bin faces.
Clear-Span HybridIntegrates heavy primary H-section bearer beams supported by high-gauge racking frames. Creates wide clear undercroft zones suitable for electric pallet trucks, assembly benches, packing conveyors, and sortation equipment.
Automated LineReinforced racking framework engineered specifically to accommodate vertical reciprocating conveyors (VRC), spiral carton chutes, overhead carton flow conveyors, and lightweight autonomous mobile robot (AMR) floor loading.
As industrial commercial rents escalate across global logistics hubs, supply chain executives are shifting capital expenditure from warehouse relocation toward vertical volume densification. Procurement directors must navigate evolving trends over the next decade.
Escalating land lease rates have made leasing new square metres economically prohibitive. Procurement teams increasingly invest in rack-supported mezzanine platforms to double floor capacity inside existing building shells, reducing Capex amortisation periods.
Procurement bids require structural mezzanines designed for mechanical integration. Mezzanines must withstand dynamic vibrational point loads from pick-to-light roller loops, vertical continuous lifts, spiral carton drops, and autonomous mobile robot fleets.
Regulatory authorities in Australia (AS 4084 / AS 1170), New Zealand (NZS 1170.5), and North America mandate verifiable engineering packages. Factory-certified load calculations, cold-formed section stress reports, and FEA simulation are now standard requirements.
Enterprise purchasers are increasingly bypassing domestic trade middlemen. Engaging directly with established manufacturers like Guangzhou Heda Shelves Co., Ltd. eliminates markups of 30% to 50%, while securing custom fabrication and mill-direct steel verification.
With multi-decade lifecycle expectations, buyers demand high-spec finishes. Multi-stage chemical pickling and phosphating followed by thermosetting polyester powder coating prevent rust, while hot-dip galvanisation is specified for cold rooms and coastal sites.
Modern commercial leases require full make-good clauses. Unlike welded structural steel buildings, modern bolted rack-supported mezzanines allow complete disassembly, reconfiguration, or relocation to new facilities without destructive cutting.
From basic structural timber platforms to precision cold-formed, finite-element-verified frameworks, rack-supported mezzanine floors continue to evolve. Explore the technological advancements driving higher weight-to-steel ratios and occupational safety.
Modern rack-supported mezzanines have transitioned from oversized structural beams to engineered high-tensile cold-formed steel sections. Utilizing Q235B and Q355B structural coil grades with precision cold roll-forming, upright columns achieve higher load capacities with less total deadweight. This reduces slab point-loading stress while maintaining high safety factors against buckling.
Every profile produced by Guangzhou Heda Shelves Co., Ltd. undergoes Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate complex axial compressive stress, torsional buckling, and combined live-load conditions. This ensures full compliance with global structural safety mandates.
Early mezzanine platforms relied on structural particleboard, which created fire code risks and required complex under-deck sprinkler grids. Technological developments have established tongue-and-groove interlocking B-deck rollings and punched galvanized steel planks as the industry benchmark.
Perforated decking allows up to 50% open surface area, facilitating natural ambient light transfer and enabling building ceiling fire sprinkler discharge to penetrate multiple tiers without requiring dedicated sub-deck pipework. This eliminates thousands of dollars in commercial plumbing costs.

Detailed answers addressing structural engineering, installation logistics, floor slab loading, and international compliance standards.
A rack-supported mezzanine generally delivers a 25% to 45% total project cost saving compared to structural steel platforms. In a standard structural mezzanine, massive structural H-columns and I-beams are installed solely to hold up the elevated deck, after which you must buy and install storage shelving separately. A rack-supported design from Guangzhou Heda Shelves Co., Ltd. eliminates redundant structural columns because the heavy-duty racking uprights carry the platform above while functioning as storage below. This drastically lowers total steel deadweight, cuts foundation engineering costs, and shortens project build times.
A continuous concrete floor slab of 150mm to 200mm thickness with minimum compressive strength of 25 MPa to 32 MPa is typically required. Because a rack-supported mezzanine transfers both rack product loads and upper-floor deck dead/live loads through the same column uprights, footings experience higher concentrated point loads. Our engineering department calculates base plate dimensions (utilizing 150x150mm up to 250x250mm solid plate steel with 8mm to 12mm thickness) and determines anchor embedment depth to distribute point loads safely within slab design parameters.
Yes. Our engineering department designs systems with reference to AS 4084 principles and relevant regional codes (such as NZS 1170.5 for seismic zones or EN 15512 for European projects). We provide complete 3D CAD modeling, section property calculations, steel grade mill sheets, and FEA stress deflection verification. This enables your local certified consulting engineer or municipal building surveyor to verify and sign off on installation compliance.
For operations requiring fire sprinkler compliance, perforated steel planking or open electro-forged bar grating is optimal. They offer up to 50% open surface area, allowing sprinkler discharge and smoke to vent freely between tiers. Where solid walking surfaces are necessary for quiet cart operations, we offer tongue-and-groove resin-coated flooring over corrugated steel underlayment, or embossed tear-drop checker steel plates for non-slip traction.
Long structural uprights, bearer beams, and walkway channels are secured onto custom heavy-gauge steel stillages or bundled with heavy-duty PET strapping and corrugated edge board protectors. Smaller connectors, stairs, and hardware are crated in ISPM-15 heat-treated timber cases, ensuring smooth clearance through quarantine inspections (such as Australian DAFF and NZ MPI). All export paperwork, including verified packing lists and FTA Certificates of Origin, is provided with each shipment.
We pre-engineer modular bolt-together assemblies that require zero on-site hot cutting or welding. Every beam, upright, diagonal brace, and stair stringer is tagged with a stamped alphanumeric part number corresponding to our 3D CAD assembly blueprint. We supply step-by-step installation manuals, torque specs, safety railing procedures, and offer video technical guidance. For major enterprise rollouts, we can dispatch on-site supervision engineers to oversee your local assembly team.
