The challenge
Automotive refinishing product suppliers, Supertune, approached Alternative Storage Systems looking for some long span pallet racking for their new paint store area. They had a target number of paints that they needed to store and, due to the weight stored, it wasn’t possible to simply use standard short span shelving. The room was to be accessed by staff only and no forklifts could be used. As a result, it was possible for us to use very small aisles in between the racks.
The solution
Due to the number of paints being stored per level and the weights involved, following an in-depth survey and design process we decided that long span racking would be the most suitable. This allowed the customer to be able to safely store all the required paints without having to worry about overloading the levels.
The outcome
The customer was so pleased with the system we supplied, they have since purchased even more racking from us. Following the installation, they realised they could get even more paints inside the room which, in turn, led them to add even more long span racking. He commented positively on just how durable the racking was and was so pleased with the amount of space created that he left us a 5 star review for our services.
