You may be able to integrate a pallet rack supported mezzanine into your existing work area. This would allow you to grow your pallet storage without losing workspace. Below are a few reasons to make an investment in a rack supported mezzanine system for your facility.
With a rack supported mezzanine, you are able to design a system to meet the exact needs of your business. In many instances, you will not have to install columns to support the mezzanine, since the mezzanine floor will be supported by the racks. This design allows you to create a mezzanine level very economically. This highly versatile solution also allows forklifts and other equipment to move easily through the aisles below the mezzanine since there are no support columns blocking access to the racks.
If you are looking to increase both your storage space and work area in your facility, a rack supported mezzanine may be an excellent solution for you. The mezzanine floor can be supported by a variety of different types of racks systems. Selective pallet racks, push-back racks for your high-density storage, or carton flow racks can all be used to support the mezzanine in order to create a wide-open work area, offices, or storage space above the racks.
This type of mezzanine system requires a far lower investment than new construction. It allows you to keep your storage areas in close proximity to your work area. It also qualifies for accelerated depreciation, creating an even higher return on your investment.

The quest for optimizing space and maximizing efficiency is a universal challenge among industrial operations, whether warehousing, distribution, or manufacturing. As a warehouse solutions provider, we think inside and outside the box to present a range of options to help our customers. One innovative solution that solves a number of challenges is an industrial shelving-supported mezzanine.
Mezzanines offer a smart approach to maximizing vertical cube space, expanding storage capacity, streamlining operations, and elevating productivity within limited square footage. Using adaptable, steel industrial shelving as a foundation for your mezzanine takes a great idea and makes it affordable.
Shelving-Supported Mezzanine Benefits
Cost-effective vs. construction or offsite rent
Highly configurable
Optimize cube space
Increase storage capacity
Enhance efficient workflow
Maximize ROI
Instead of investing significant capital into constructing larger buildings, mezzanine spaces leverage existing space more efficiently, eliminating costly construction expenses, i.e., permits, zoning, and additional infrastructure. Moreover, industrial mezzanines centralize storage and operations within the facility, streamlining logistics and significantly reducing recurring costs on off-site storage facilities.
Perhaps most enticing of all, shelving-supported mezzanines are an investment that keeps on giving. They provide an opportunity to maximize the return on investment (ROI) by increasing storage capacity and enhancing workflow efficiency. Over time, the cost savings positively impact your bottom line.
An industrial shelving-supported mezzanine is exceptionally customizable and adaptable. These versatile structures can be tailored to meet your specific business needs, from storing finished goods, small parts, raw materials, records, tools, and more. Each shelving unit is adaptable for a unique inventory. Choose a solid or permeable shelf surface… or how about an open shelf for wire coils or tires? You can also keep the shelving fully open or closed in the back or the sides, or even drawers, doors, locks, and dividers. In short, you get to make your shelving solution your own.
