Every system is engineered from Q235B/Q355B structural steel, precision roll-formed, and static-calculated to comply with European safety codes for standard Euro-pallets (800×1200 mm) and ISO industrial pallets.
Capital region warehouse operations face unprecedented spatial and economic pressures. High commercial prime rents in Berlin-Brandenburg necessitate a rapid transition to vertical volumetric optimization and engineered steel racking.
Industrial logistics space around the Berlin A10 ring (Berliner Ring), notably in Großbeeren and Ludwigsfelde, has climbed toward record highs of €7.50 to €9.50/m². Floor-area expansion is no longer economically viable; logistics managers must capitalize on building heights up to 14 meters through precision-engineered high-bay pallet racking and multi-tier structural mezzanines.
Space Density Index: +65%Our direct factory export corridor delivers complete containerized shipments to Berlin Westhafen via multimodal maritime routing through Hamburg or Bremerhaven, as well as direct rail freight on the New Silk Road into Berlin/Duisburg terminals within 18–22 days, drastically cutting project lead times compared to domestic European mills.
Multimodal Transit: 18-28 DaysGerman industrial storage installations must comply strictly with DIN EN 15512 (static calculation tolerances), DIN EN 15635 (operational rack safety inspections), and German accident insurance guidelines DGUV Regel 108-007. We deliver stamped static calculations, load capacity plaques (Belastungstabellen), and Eurocode-compliant seismic anchoring for every project.
DIN EN 15512 & CE CertifiedFrom automotive component fulfillment in Grünheide to inner-city urban farming labs in Berlin-Mitte, our structural steel racking systems power diverse high-load industrial environments.
Supplying tier-1 automotive suppliers surrounding the Gigafactory corridor with heavy-duty structural steel selective racks holding up to 4,500 kg per beam level for battery module racks and stamping dies.
Focus: Heavy Pallet RacksHigh-throughput fulfillment centers utilize Carton Flow Racks and automated radio shuttle systems to fulfill same-day delivery mandates for greater metropolitan Berlin consumer markets.
Focus: Carton Flow & ShuttlesTemperature-controlled distribution centers in Potsdam and Berlin-Marzahn leverage dense drive-in and deep-freeze radio shuttles rated to -25°C to minimize cooling cubic volume loss.
Focus: Deep-Freeze SystemsUrban agriculture startups inside brownfield industrial conversions throughout Berlin deploy multi-layer Ebb and Flow grow racks with integrated LED and drainage trays to optimize city yields.
Focus: Vertical Farming RacksSelecting the appropriate storage configuration dictates throughput, footprint efficiency, forklift requirements, and total cost of ownership (TCO).

Combining over six decades of intralogistics heritage, 12 specialized manufacturing plants, and direct raw-material mill purchasing power to deliver unmatched value to German buyers.
Our facilities utilize state-of-the-art multi-stage cold roll-forming lines capable of handling certified high-strength steel up to 3.5 mm thickness. Automated inline punching ensures pinhole accuracy with pitch tolerances within ±0.5 mm over a 12-meter upright length.
Tolerance: ±0.5 mm StrictEvery beam and upright profile undergoes a rigorous 7-stage pre-treatment wash including zinc phosphating, followed by electrostatic powder deposition using Swiss GEMA guns. The resulting finish resists corrosion, abrasion, and chipping, tested to 500 hours salt-spray resistance.
Finish: 60-80 μm Epoxy LayerGerman building authorities (Bauaufsichtsbehörde) demand rigorous structural engineering documentation. We supply comprehensive FEA finite-element reports and German static calculations (Statische Berechnungen) stamped according to DIN EN 15512 and Eurocode 3.
Prüffähige Statik ReadyCritical answers regarding structural steel certification, customs clearance in Germany, local fire protection standards, and delivery milestones.
Chinese standards GB/T 700 (Q235B) and GB/T 1591 (Q355B) have equivalent chemical and mechanical properties to European standard EN 10025-2 grades S235JR and S355JR respectively. Q355B offers a minimum yield strength of 355 MPa, identical to S355, providing superior load-bearing capacity for tall upright frames while reducing profile gauge and total system weight. All steel heats are certified with mill test certificates (MTC) conforming to EN 10204 3.1, verifying tensile strength, elongation, and impact values.
Yes. In Germany, industrial storage racks above 7.5 meters or open to public access require an official structural calculation (prüffähige Statik) complying with DIN EN 15512 and Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-1-3 for cold-formed members). Our in-house structural engineering department provides 3D FEA stress simulations, seismic analysis (Erdbebensicherheit according to DIN EN 1998-1), anchor bolt pull-out calculations, and floor slab load distribution diagrams. We collaborate closely with local German structural engineers (Prüfstatiker) for project sign-offs.
We offer both ocean and rail logistics. Sea freight from Shanghai/Ningbo to Hamburg/Bremerhaven takes approximately 26–32 days, followed by barge or trucking via the A24/A10 into Berlin depots within 48 hours. For fast-track schedules, China-Europe Railway Express freight delivers containers to Duisburg or Berlin terminals in 18–22 days. We handle FOB, CIF, or complete DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping terms including German import customs clearance, payment of EU tariffs, and direct flatbed delivery to your warehouse site.
Industrial racking in Germany must conform to VdS CEA 4001 guidelines (Sprinkler Systems Planning and Installation). For high-density configurations, push-back racks, and multi-tier mezzanines, we supply wire mesh decking with open surface ratios exceeding 70% or perforated steel shelves that allow downward sprinkler water penetration. In deep pallet shuttle channels, we pre-engineer dedicated internal sprinkler riser channels and pipe clamp brackets directly into the structural upright upright frames.
Every racking installation includes durable aluminum or PVC load notices (Belastungstabellen) printed in German, explicitly stating maximum shelf load (Fachlast), bay load (Feldlast), beam level elevations, and installation date. These warning notices are fully compliant with DGUV Regel 108-007 (formerly BGR 234) and DIN EN 15635 requirements, ensuring your facility passes annual safety inspections by certified German racking inspectors (Regalprüfer).
We offer an extensive 10-year structural warranty on all steel frames, roll-formed beams, and galvanized components, and a 2-year warranty on electronic radio shuttles and automated conveyors. Standardized component profiles ensure that replacement upright protectors (Anfahrschutz), horizontal braces, locking pins, and drop-in beam sections can be dispatched rapidly from factory stock or European regional reserve hubs.
