CE Certified Beam Pallet Racking Factories & Exporters

The fundamental standard is EN 15512:2020 ("Steel static storage systems - Adjustable pallet racking systems - Principles for structural design"). Complementary standards include EN 15620 (Tolerances, deformations and clearances), EN 15629 (Specification of storage equipment), and EN 15635 (Application and maintenance of storage equipment). In the United States, structural designs reference RMI (Rack Manufacturers Institute) MH16.1 specifications. Our manufacturing lines produce to both EN and RMI standards.

Beam capacity calculation involves determining the Section Modulus ($Z$) and Moment of Inertia ($I$) of the welded roll-formed twin-C section profile. The safe working load assumes two or three uniformly distributed loads (UDL) simulating unitized pallets. The design must satisfy both bending stress safety factors (minimum 1.5 against yield strength $R_e$) and maximum vertical elastic deflection limit (δ ≤ L/200) under full design load.

Yes. Seismic engineering calculations model dynamic ground acceleration factors ($a_g$), ground ductility classes, and response modification factors according to Eurocode 8 (EN 1998) or IBC (International Building Code). We engineer enlarged footplates, high-embedment seismic wedge anchors, heavy-wall structural upright profiles, and continuous rear diagonal cross-bracing to prevent progressive collapse under harmonic earthquake loads.

For standard beam levels operated by counterbalanced or reach trucks, EN 15620 recommends a minimum vertical clearance of 75 mm to 100 mm between the top of the pallet load and the bottom of the beam profile above. A minimum clearance of 75 mm to 100 mm is also required between adjacent pallets and between pallets and upright column faces to prevent snagging during high-speed forklift operation.

High relative humidity (80%+) and coastal saline atmospheres cause micro-porous blisters in poorly treated steel. Our facility employs a 10-stage pre-treatment line including acid pickling, surface neutralization, and crystalline zinc-phosphating before curing outdoor-grade electrostatic polyester powder at 200°C. This process passes 500+ hours of ASTM B117 salt spray testing without sub-film rust creep.

To prepare a precise proposal, send us: (1) Architectural floor plan with column locations, dock positions, and clear height under roof trusses; (2) Pallet dimensions (Length × Width × Height including cargo) and maximum gross weight per pallet; (3) Forklift model, maximum lifting mast height, and turning radius; and (4) Planned storage temperature range and SKU velocity profile.

Typical manufacturing lead times for customized CE-certified beam pallet racking span 15 to 25 calendar days depending on tonnage. Port-to-port sea transit times from Guangzhou/Shenzhen terminals are: 2–5 days to Vietnam, 3–5 days to the Philippines, 5–7 days to Singapore and Thailand, 6–8 days to Malaysia, 7–10 days to Indonesia, 12–16 days to Australia, and 20–28 days to European and North American ports.

Every export shipment includes fully tagged and numbered structural bundles, detailed 3D step-by-step CAD installation shop drawings, assembly videos, and structural load plaques. For complex automated AS/RS, 4-way shuttle, or multi-tier mezzanine installations, we provide real-time remote video engineering assistance or dispatch experienced site installation supervisors directly to your facility.
