Maximize your vertical cubic volume capacity without expensive structural extensions. Discover our premier British market racking and steel deck platforms.
The industrial landscape in the United Kingdom is undergoing a massive shift. Logistics hubs, especially in the "Golden Triangle" (Midlands, Yorkshire, and South East England), are grappling with record-high land costs, strict planning permission protocols, and record-low industrial vacancy rates. Following Brexit and the continuous rise of regional e-commerce distribution, securing extra square footage has become a premium bottleneck.
For warehouse operations directors in London, Birmingham, Leeds, and Manchester, structural expansion is often financially unfeasible. Building a mezzanine platform using existing overhead space is the most economically viable alternative, providing up to a 100% to 200% increase in storage footprint without changing the outer physical perimeter of the building.
At Shenzhen Heda Warehouse Equipment Co., Ltd., we design high-integrity, cold-formed structural steel mezzanine racking frameworks that fit into current UK warehouse structural models, ensuring maximum floor-load utilization without over-stressing existing concrete floor slabs.
We engineer mezzanine flooring systems matching the most stringent safety regulations across England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
All Heda uprights, beams, and bracing structures conform strictly to SEMA (Storage Equipment Manufacturers' Association) codes of practice. This ensures structural integrity under intense continuous loads and guarantees stable seismic resistance during daily industrial forklift operations.
Any mezzanine floor installed in the UK exceeding 10m in either length or width, or taking up more than 50% of the ground floor footprint, requires 1-hour fire protection. We integrate mineral wool insulation, column casings, and suspended fire-rated ceilings seamlessly with our steel frames.
Our structures offer compliant utility handrails, kickplates, public/industrial staircases, and pallet drop gates (safety pivot or sliding gates). These meet BS 5395 structural requirements to guarantee safety for workers operating on upper levels.
Shenzhen Heda Warehouse Equipment Co., Ltd. delivers global-level industrial storage engineering directly from our high-capacity production center.
Established in 2014, Shenzhen Heda Warehouse Equipment Co., Ltd. is a premier manufacturer specializing in heavy-duty warehouse racking and industrial storage solutions. Spanning a modern manufacturing facility of 35,000 m², our enterprise integrates R&D, design, production, and international marketing to serve diverse storage needs worldwide. With 12 years of industry experience and 8 years of dedicated export expertise, we deliver high-caliber storage systems that generate over $28 million in annual export revenue.
At Heda, quality control and engineering innovation drive our core operations. Our robust QC department comprises 45 skilled inspectors utilizing rigorous testing methods, including raw material tensile testing, automated weld flaw detection, layer load-bearing stress analysis, and salt spray surface corrosion testing. Supported by a professional R&D team of 28 senior structural engineers, we maintain strong full-customization capabilities (OEM/ODM)—offering tailored rack dimensions, load capacities, surface coatings, and layout designs. Driven by continuous innovation, we launched over 120 new dynamic storage products and component upgrades last year.
Operating with a strong direct-factory and international trade background, we have built a resilient ecosystem supported by over 800 supply chain partners. Our products are exported to major global markets, including North America, Western Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. We proudly serve a diverse clientele ranging from third-party logistics (3PL) providers and large distribution centers to industrial manufacturers and wholesale equipment distributors.
We monitor every stage of production at our 35,000 m² factory. Below is an overview of our state-of-the-art manufacturing line and inspection facility.
Every building slab has unique requirements. We structure mezzanines based on clear, task-oriented industrial ratings.
Ideal for administrative lofts, light-assembly electronics areas, and archives. Often fitted with standard chipboard flooring panels and simple staircase configurations.
The standard benchmark for e-commerce sorting centers, 3PL logistics picking zones, and automotive parts depots. Designed with structural joists to prevent sagging.
Engineered with hot-rolled structural steel columns and robust grid decks. Designed for heavy machinery, tool storage, and bulk point loads.
Discover how modern warehouse technology blends with heavy-duty structural steel platforms.
Modern UK distribution warehouses are shifting from human-operated pick carts to Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). This transition requires specialized mezzanine engineering.
At Heda, we adapt our designs to accommodate the high wheel point-loads, acceleration forces, and surface friction generated by automated systems. Our steel grating options, overlay plate options, and precise deflection calculations (designed to L/360 tolerances or better) prevent structural vibration, ensuring smooth navigation for AGVs.
Additionally, we integrate safety chutes, structural vertical reciprocating conveyors (VRCs), and fast-action loading gates to enable seamless horizontal-to-vertical transport loops.
In line with the UK Net Zero 2050 target, Heda is actively reducing its environmental impact. We source recyclable structural steel coil materials, utilize VOC-free powder coatings, and design modular systems that can be disassembled, expanded, or relocated without landfill waste.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) models steel deflection and stress under structural load combinations before manufacturing.
High-tensile steel is rolled into exact C-channel and Sigma section joists to ensure structural stability.
Each batch undergoes testing for weld integrity, dimensional accuracy, and coating thickness before shipping.
No site welding is required. Pre-punched components assemble quickly on-site to minimize operational downtime.
Select from our wide range of multi-tier storage systems and industrial platform configurations, customized for UK businesses.
Working directly with an international manufacturer eliminates middleman margins and secures structural steel supply chains.
Our engineering team delivers structural drawings and 3D mockups within 48 hours of receiving floor plan details, ensuring projects proceed without delays.
By sourcing directly from our 35,000 m² factory, UK businesses save up to 30-40% compared to local trade suppliers, freeing up budget for other upgrades.
We supply custom steel sections, structural configurations, safety gate setups, and powder-coated paint finishes matching your corporate branding.
