3 Benefits of Longspan Shelving that Can Help Make Your Business More Effective

by Frank T. Online Retail
As the name suggests, longspan shelving is steel shelving that spans a great distance (typically from 1 to 2.5 metres). Modern longspan shelving is very versatile, because of its modular construction. Each bay of shelving is made up of 3 component parts (see image): 1) uprights (blue), 2) beams (orange) and 3) decks (white).

Longspan shelving affords three key benefits that will help make your business more effective.

1. Durability

Quality longspan shelving is typically made from powder coated or galvanised steel for strength and durability. This makes it strong, resistant to wear and easy to clean and maintain. So it will last for many years.

2. Flexibility

It is easy to erect and it is also easy to disassemble and transport to a new site. This is because modern longspan shelving does not use bolts for assembly. The beams slot into grooves on the uprights and the decks drop onto a ledge built into the beam. This makes it easy to adjust or add extra tiers of shelving.

Also, longspan is a modular storage system, where the components are designed to be connectable and highly reconfigurable. You can mix and match units of various heights and widths to optimise the storage in any sized space.

3. Efficiency

Longspan units can be up to about 2.7m high. This ability for high storage helps to maximise the storage capacity per square metre of floor space. The number and height of shelves can also be adjusted to optimise the storage capacity given the various sizes of the items being stored. Also having the shelves open on both side makes access very easy.
