The Hub of Central Europe: Czech Logistics Infrastructure

The Czech Republic serves as a primary logistical corridor linking Western and Eastern Europe. With industrial sectors like automotive manufacturing (centered around Škoda Auto in Mladá Boleslav and other global assembly lines in Plzeň, Brno, and Ostrava) driving massive demand, warehousing space has become premium real estate.

In logistics hotspots such as the D1 motorway corridor, Prague outskirts, and the Ústí nad Labem region, companies are increasingly utilizing high-density racking. Drive-in Shelving Systems are ideal here, allowing warehouses to maximize overhead volume and store homogeneous goods with minimal aisle footprints.

As e-commerce giants and third-party logistics (3PL) providers seek cost-efficient space optimization, implementing high-yield structural steel racks verified by European safety standards is key.

Czech Warehouse Market Drivers

  • Automotive Nearshoring: Fast storage turnaround of heavy cast molds and parts components.
  • Cold Storage Demand: High density drive-in racks are perfect for temperature-controlled units in Prague and Brno, minimizing cooling volume loss.
  • Land Shortages: Skyrocketing warehouse rental prices require shifting from selective racking to compact systems.

Why Drive-in Racking is the Storage Strategy of Choice

Up to 85% Space Utilization

Eliminates access aisles required by standard selective pallet racks. Forklifts drive directly into the racking bays, storing pallets multiple positions deep.

Ideal for LIFO Stock Cycles

Perfect for batch production, cold storage, and bulk goods with long shelf lives. Features single-sided entry lanes to maximize structural stability.

Robust Structural Security

Constructed with high-strength Q235B steel. Incorporates upright guards, floor-mounted guide rails, and heavy-duty structural bracing.

Racking Feature Comparison Selective Pallet Racking Drive-In Shelving Systems Double Deep Racking
Space Efficiency Moderate (~40% utilization) Exceptional (Up to 85%) High (~60% utilization)
Access Sequence FIFO (First-In, First-Out) LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) FILO (First-In, Last-Out)

European Safety Standards Compliance

For operations in the Czech Republic, rack construction must strictly align with domestic and European standards. Our manufacturing and engineering designs comply fully with:

  • CSN EN 15635: Steel static storage systems - Application and maintenance of storage equipment.
  • CSN EN 15512: Structural design principles for adjustable pallet racking systems.
  • SGS Certification: Continuous load capacity verification of cold-rolled structural steel components.

Engineered for Stability & Industrial Rigor

Unlike standard racking setups, a drive-in system requires robust forklift collision safety features. The vertical frames are subject to dynamic stress as forklifts enter and exit the racking lanes.

To counter this risk, our engineering team deploys thick steel footplates, heavy-duty guide rails, and custom floor-anchoring designs. By calculating structural deflection through Finite Element Analysis (FEA), we ensure safety across multi-tier storage setups.

Whether storing standard Euro pallets (800x1200mm) or customized industrial crates, we deliver systems engineered for safety.

Technical & Logistics Q&A - Czech Republic

Q1: How do Drive-in systems optimize space compared to Selective Pallet Racks?
Drive-in systems eliminate conventional aisles, placing lanes right next to each other. Instead of maintaining wide corridors for forklifts, columns are spaced to let forklifts enter the structure. This increases pallet capacity by up to 85% relative to the same floor area.
Q2: Which European standards govern warehouse racking safety in the Czech Republic?
Warehouse racking installations must follow ČSN EN 15635 for inspection, safety, and maintenance, alongside ČSN EN 15512 for structural design. Additionally, local occupational safety regulations (NV č. 101/2005 Sb.) demand annual static and structural checks on storage systems.
Q3: Can your racking handle standard European pallet sizes?
Yes, our racking systems are designed to fit standard EUR 1 (800mm x 1200mm) and EUR 2 (1200mm x 1000mm) pallets. We adjust the drive-in lane widths and rail heights to match these specifications, maintaining a 100mm safety clearance on each side.
Q4: What material grade is used in your racking components?
We use Q235B and Q355B structural carbon steel. These grades match European S235JR and S355JR requirements, providing reliable yield strength, structural toughness, and weldability under heavy industrial loads.
Q5: Are your systems suitable for cold storage warehouses in Czech industrial zones?
Yes. Drive-in racking is highly suited for cold storage because high-density storage minimizes the air volume that requires cooling. For cold settings, we apply hot-dip galvanized finishes or cold-resistant powder coatings to protect the steel from moisture and rust.
Q6: What is your typical shipping lead time to the Czech Republic?
Production typically takes 20 to 30 days. Shipping via ocean container to ports like Hamburg or Gdańsk, combined with overland freight to Czech destinations, adds about 35 to 45 days. In total, expect delivery within 60 to 75 days from order confirmation.
Q7: Do you provide design and customization services for specific layouts?
Yes, our team of 28 R&D engineers designs custom racking configurations. We can build configurations for varying heights, load limits, and building layouts, providing full CAD plans and loading calculations.
Q8: How is the racking protected against forklift collisions?
We supply safety add-ons including wrap-around column guards, bright orange frame protectors, entry guide rails, and back-stops. These help guide forklift operators safely down the storage lanes.
