Cost-effective storage systems

The internal logistics of manufacturing and processing companies have a major impact on the speed and quality of service. Especially in the metal sector, where parts with large dimensions often need to be stored, an efficient storage system is crucial to remain competitive.

OHRA cantilever racking systems are constructed of full-wall steel profiles and allow for slim construction.

"The efficiency of a storage system manifests itself in two crucial areas," says Bart Danneels, sales manager Belux at Ohra Storage Systems. "On the one hand, the storage system must allow materials to be placed, moved and taken out quickly and easily. On the other hand, space is also an important factor. Many companies struggle with lack of space. So they are looking for solutions to store as many materials as possible in the smallest space possible."

Storage systems tailored to each metal company
OHRA Storage Systems has been a specialist in the production and assembly of storage systems for forty years. Metal processing is a very important market for them. "Because the options in terms of materials, dimensions, finishing ... are constantly increasing, companies in this sector need storage systems that are easily adaptable in terms of length, height and stacking levels," says Danneels. "Our cantilever racking systems are the perfect solution here. They are constructed from full-wall steel profiles and allow for a slim construction method. This enables large storage in a small area." OHRA cantilever racking systems are individually tailored. There are different variants, according to requirements in stacking height, depth, load-bearing capacity and profile strength. For outdoor installations, they can also be powder coated or hot galvanized to a high standard. Versions with roof, rear wall and rain gutter are also possible.

Advice for warehouse equipment
OHRA Storage Systems not only has an extensive and diverse range of storage systems, it also offers customized advice. "With our expertise and in-house study service, we help companies set up warehouses and storage areas in the right way for optimal utilization and efficient handling," Danneels said.
