Explore our export-grade warehouse storage systems manufactured from high-tensile structural steel (Q235B / Q355B). Designed for dual Euro (1200×800mm) and Standard Irish/UK (1200×1000mm) pallet configurations.
Procuring pallet racking for Irish commercial logistics requires stringent structural verification. All Guangzhou Heda Shelves systems exported to the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland are calculated to European limit state design standards.
Unlike basic empirical calculations, our structural engineering team validates beam-to-column semi-rigid connection stiffness, global frame sway, and buckling modes under partial safety factor combinations for Dead, Live, Placement, and Impact loads ($1.4G_k + 1.4Q_k$).
Under Health and Safety Authority (HSA) warehouse inspection protocols, vertical beam deflection cannot exceed $L/200$ for Class 400 wide-aisle systems, or $L/300$ for automated VNA installations. We roll-form custom box profiles to eliminate permanent deformation under heavy load cycles.
Fabricated exclusively from prime certified coil stock (Q235B yield strength $\ge 235 \text{ MPa}$ and Q355B $\ge 355 \text{ MPa}$ equivalent to S235JR and S355JR under EN 10025). Full EN 10204 3.1 chemical inspection and tensile test certs accompany each export bill of lading.

*Note: Irish logistics facilities commonly interchange 1200×1000mm perimeter-base pallets and 1200×800mm Euro EPAL-1 pallets. Heda Shelves custom-engineers frame depths (typically 900mm or 1100mm) fitted with wire mesh decks or step support bars to prevent under-run hazards.
Irish commercial industrial rents command premium rates per square foot. Optimizing existing clear eaves heights from 8 to 14 meters is mission-critical across key logistics clusters.
De-risking pharma cold-chain and hazardous raw material storage across Ringaskiddy, Little Island, and Carrigtwohill. Systems are pre-treated through non-toxic phosphating and cured with smooth, anti-static epoxy powder coating resisting chemical washdowns and bacterial retention.
Serving intensive fast-moving consumer distribution centers in Ballycoolin, Baldonnell, and Grange Castle. VNA high-bay systems maximize vertical capacity up to 14.5m eaves, matching inductive wire-guided reach trucks to double pallet count within unchanged footprints.
Ireland's world-leading dairy, butter, and meat exports require temperature-controlled holding down to -28°C. Our deep-lane gravity flow and radio shuttle racking leverage low-temperature steel chemistry and cold-rated sealed roller bearings to prevent brittle fracturing.
Parkmore and Shannon Free Zone manufacturing operations demand segregated, dense picking platforms for components and surgical assembly kits. Multi-tier rack-supported platforms integrate fire sprinklers, anti-slip bar grating, and staircase egress conforming to Irish Building Regs Part B.
Post-Brexit freight dynamics and stringent ESG mandates have rewritten the playbook for Irish logistics operators and commercial builders.
To avoid UK landbridge delays, Irish supply chains rely on direct RoRo and LoLo routes connecting Dublin Port, Port of Cork, and Rosslare to continental ports. Our factory container loading guarantees optimal cubing into 40ft High Cube containers, minimizing oceanic freight overheads directly into Irish berths.
High Irish warehouse wage rates and picker shortages have driven sharp capital reallocation into semi-automated 4-way and 2-way pallet shuttles. Heda Shelves manufactures precision-aligned runner rails and guide profiles with laser-calibrated tolerances under 1.5mm variance.
Institutional developers constructing grade-A industrial developments across Dublin Logistics Park demand low-embodied-carbon structural components. Heda Shelves adopts electrostatic powder recycling with zero-VOC emissions and fully recyclable heavy gauge steel.
Land scarcity across South-West Dublin (Exit 9 & 10 M50) has made low-eaves warehousing obsolete. Our roll-forming towers fabricate seamless continuous upright columns up to 12 meters in a single roll, preventing structural column splices at critical flexure nodes.
Founded in 2001, Guangzhou Heda Shelves Co., Ltd. provides end-to-end manufacturing oversight from cold steel roll-forming to direct port delivery. Cut out intermediary markups while maintaining total design control.
Every beam and upright column passes through precision steel slitting, automated numeric punching, 18-station cold roll-forming, robotic welding, acid pickling, phosphating, electrostatic powder coating, and oven baking at 200°C for lifetime corrosion resistance.
