storing small to medium-sized products. It can be decked with
particle board, wire decking, zinc steel panel, and so on to make
it work well in different environments.
As per the requirements of customers, the heights and
configurations of the shelving can be adjusted freely. Based on its
characteristics, long-span shelving is ideal for medium and
heavy-duty loads with high turnover and requires manual handling.

Components of Long Span Shelving
Long span shelving system is mainly composed of upright frames,
beams, and shelves.
Upright fame consists of horizontal bracing, diagonal bracing, and
two posts. Horizontal bracing and diagonal bracing are bolted
between the two posts. The posts come in a variety of heights and
depths to suit different-sized cargoes.
Beam is the connection between two upright frames and plays the
role of holding the load placed in the shelving.
The shelf is placed on beams to provide extra support for cargo.
There are several alternatives, including plywood, metal panel, and
wire mesh deck.
Advantages of Long Span Shelving
- 100% Selectivity: Long-span shelving allows 100% selectivity to all stored products.
Every pallet can get easy access by hand.
- High Flexibility: Long-span shelving can be easily adjusted according to customer’s
requirements, providing a system changes with your demands. You can
set different heights for each level if you have a lot of cargo
with different sizes, thus maximizing the space utilization rate.
- Low Investment Cost: Compared with standard selective pallet rack, the cost for
long-span shelving is relatively lower.
- Versatile Application: Long-span shelving can be equipped with different shelves, such as
plywood, steel panel and wire mesh deck, making it widely used in
various industries including food, beverage, pharmaceuticals,
automotive, chemical, workshops, and more.
- Easy Installation: It is a portable system that is easy to assemble and dismantle so
as to make reconfiguration facile.
- Manual Storing and Retrieving: Cargoes on long-span shelving are not palletized items and are
stored and picked up through workers’ hands, saving part of cost by
not using forklift.
Tips for Long Span Shelving
- Long-span shelving is an ideal choice if you have the following
demands: (1) You have cartons and medium-sized items, or
non-palletized goods; (2) You want to store medium-duty loads; (3)
You need compact storage with manual handling and immediate access
to all stored goods;
- Compared with selective pallet rack, there are shelves placed on
beams of the same level within the long-span shelving system. And
normally, the load capacity of shelving is smaller than racking.
- It is sensitive to weight. Do not store loads heavier than the
maximum load capacity. If you want to store a large volume of
heavy-duty goods, a pallet racking system is more advisable.
- For high storage levels which is difficult to reach, a mechanical
device like a stepped trolley is necessary for a long-span shelving
system.
