Nanjing Peter Logistics Equipment Co., Ltd.

Project Background A fast-growing third-party logistics (3PL) company based in Sofia, Bulgaria, was running out of usable storage space in its existing distribution center. With e-commerce volumes rising across the Balkan region, the client urgently needed to increase pallet and carton storage capacity without relocating or constructing a new building. Project Challenge Limited floor area with a high ceiling that was largely unused Rising warehousing costs and land prices in the Sofia industrial zone Need for a robust, high-load platform able to support heavy carton and equipment loads Tight timeline to expand capacity before the peak logistics season Our Solution: A Custom Steel Mezzanine Platform Our engineering team carried out a full site survey, took precise field measurements and delivered a custom-designed, bolt-together steel mezzanine platform with a total footprint of approximately 222 square meters and a floor load-bearing capacity of 700 kg per square meter. The platform creates an entirely new elevated working and storage floor above the existing warehouse area, effectively doubling the usable space.

Optimized secondary framing — a mix of C300*90*3.0 channels and HN248*124 H-beams balances load distribution with material efficiency. Reinforced flooring — press-lock floor panels with a single stiffener provide a flat, durable walking surface rated for 700 kg/m². Enhanced stability — multiple sets of back pull (tie) rods were installed to significantly increase the lateral stability of the platform. Safety first — a full 1,200 mm high guardrail runs along the front edge, with a dedicated staircase for safe access. Installation & Results The platform was prefabricated, shipped and assembled on site using a modular bolt-together system, requiring no welding at the customer's facility. Installation was completed with minimal disruption to the client's daily operations. Added approx. 222 m² of valuable storage space without expanding the building footprint Enabled a two-tier storage layout and improved picking efficiency Supported heavy carton and equipment loads with a 700 kg/m² rating Delivered and installed within the client's tight pre-season schedule Conclusion This Bulgaria steel mezzanine platform project demonstrates how a well-engineered, custom warehouse platform can turn unused vertical height into productive storage — a fast, cost-effective alternative to new construction. From layout design to structural fabrication and on-site assembly, our team provided a complete turnkey solution tailored to the client's exact requirements.

Project Overview A US-based fitness business needed to expand its indoor training area without moving to a larger facility. The client commissioned us to design and manufacture a custom steel mezzanine platform that would create a full upper floor for fitness equipment while keeping the ground level open and usable. After reviewing the site conditions, we engineered a bolted steel structure precisely matched to their dimensions, height, and loading requirements. Client Requirements Platform size: 18m × 8m (144 m² of usable floor) Finished platform height: 2.8m Design live load: 300 kg/m² to support heavy gym equipment Two sides mounted against existing walls (wall-supported layout) A staircase positioned along the 8m side for safe upper-level access Upper level dedicated to fitness equipment and training space Technical Specifications Parameter Specification Platform footprint 18m × 8m (144 m²) Platform height 2.8m clear height Design live load 300 kg/m² Support layout 2 sides wall-mounted, freestanding columns on open sides Access Staircase on the 8m side Application Fitness equipment floor (upper level) Surface finish Anti-slip decking with a powder-coated steel frame Our Engineering Solution The mezzanine was designed as a modular bolted steel structure so it could be shipped in compact bundles and assembled on site quickly, without heavy welding. Because two sides anchor directly to the building walls, we used wall-mounted beams to transfer part of the load to the existing structure, reducing the number of internal columns and keeping the ground floor clear for daily operations. On the open sides, we positioned hot-rolled steel columns on a regular grid to safely carry the 300 kg/m² live load. The primary and secondary beams were sized to limit deflection, ensuring the floor feels solid under the dynamic, concentrated loads typical of gym equipment. A dedicated staircase was placed along the 8m side, giving users convenient and code-compliant access to the upper training level. Key Design Features High load capacity: engineered for 300 kg/m², ideal for treadmills, racks, and weight machines. Wall-supported efficiency: two sides tied to existing walls to maximize open space below. Optimized access: staircase on the 8m side for smooth and safe circulation. Fast installation: bolted connections allow rapid, low-disruption on-site assembly. Long service life: powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance in indoor environments. Results & Benefits The completed mezzanine effectively doubled the client's usable training floor at a fraction of the cost of relocation. The 18m × 8m upper platform comfortably accommodates the fitness equipment, while the ground level remains open for reception, storage, and additional workout zones. The robust structure has been designed to withstand the continuous, heavy use of a commercial gym setting.

Kosovo Warehouse Picking Upgrade with Carton Flow Rack and Central Conveyor This case study details how a distribution client in Kosovo upgraded an aging warehouse into a fast, ergonomic order-picking operation by installing 100 sets of carton flow rack on both sides of a central conveyor line. Customer Background The customer is a growing distribution company based in Kosovo, serving retailers and small wholesalers across the region. Their product mix contains a large number of fast-moving, small to medium-sized cartons, which made manual order picking slow and labor intensive. To support rising order volumes, the customer decided to modernize an existing old warehouse instead of building a new facility. Operational Challenges Limited usable space inside an old warehouse with a fixed building structure. A high number of SKUs requiring quick, repeated access for picking. Slow manual picking and long walking distances for operators. The need to handle carton loads of 300-500 kg per level safely. A tight budget that required a practical upgrade rather than a full rebuild. The Solution: Carton Flow Rack Flanking a Central Conveyor To match the existing warehouse layout, we supplied 100 sets of carton flow rack arranged on both sides of a central conveyor line. Operators pick items directly from the inclined flow lanes and place completed orders onto the conveyor, which carries orders toward the packing and dispatch area. This layout removes unnecessary walking and creates a clean, one-way picking flow. Each bay was designed as 2700 mm long, 2500 mm deep and 2600 mm high, with four picking levels. Every level supports 300-500 kg, making the system suitable for a wide range of carton weights. The inclined roller lanes let cartons flow forward automatically, so the next item is always presented at the picking face for fast, ergonomic access. Technical Specifications Product Carton Flow Rack (gravity flow picking) Quantity 100 Sets Depth 2500 mm Length 2700 mm Height 2600 mm Levels 4 Levels Load Capacity 300-500 kg per Level Layout Racks both sides of a central conveyor Layout Highlights Carton flow rack positioned on both sides of the conveyor line for balanced picking on each side. Conveyor in the middle acts as the order transport spine, reducing internal traffic and travel time. Four levels per bay fully use the 2600 mm working height for dense but accessible storage. Gravity roller lanes keep products at the picking face, supporting first-in first-out rotation. Results and Benefits Order picking became faster and more consistent by removing unnecessary walking. Storage density increased within the same old warehouse footprint. Ergonomic presentation of goods reduced operator fatigue and picking errors. The central conveyor improved order flow toward packing and dispatch. Four levels and 300-500 kg capacity per level handled the full carton range comfortably. Why This Solution Works for Old Warehouses Old buildings often have irregular columns, limited clear height and restricted floor area. Carton flow rack is flexible and modular, so it can be configured around these constraints. By combining flow lanes with a central conveyor, the customer gained a modern picking operation without the cost and disruption of moving to a new site.

Project Overview This case study presents a complete warehouse storage solution delivered to a logistics customer in Venezuela. The client required a brand-new high-density storage facility capable of holding heavy palletized goods in a warehouse with a very high clear height. Working from the customer's site drawings, our engineering team designed a heavy-duty pallet racking system that maximizes cubic capacity while keeping every pallet safely accessible. The project features a total of 9 racking rows, laid out to suit the building footprint: 8 double rows installed back-to-back and 1 single row placed against the wall. Every row is built with 12 bays, giving the client a large, flexible storage volume within a compact floor plan. Project Highlights Customer location: Venezuela Application: New warehouse storage / high-density pallet storage Total rows: 9 (8 double rows back-to-back + 1 single row against the wall) Bays per row: 12 Design basis: Site warehouse drawing supplied by the customer Key challenge: Very tall racks (9000mm) with heavy 3-ton loads per level Technical Specifications Parameter Specification Rack width 1000 mm Beam length 2700 mm Rack height 9000 mm Load per level 3 tons Load per bay 12 tons Aisle width 2000 mm Rows 9 (8 back-to-back + 1 against wall) Bays per row 12 Safety accessories Protective guard rails (R300) and top ties Engineering & Layout Design Because the building offers a clear height that supports racks up to 9000 mm, the design uses vertical space efficiently, allowing multiple storage levels per bay while still respecting forklift reach and safe handling. The 2700 mm beam length comfortably accommodates standard pallet sizes, and the 1000 mm rack width keeps the structure stable under heavy loads. Each storage level is rated to carry 3 tons, and every bay is engineered for a total distributed load of 12 tons. This heavy-duty capacity suits dense, industrial goods and gives the client the confidence to store heavier SKUs at height without compromising safety. All main aisles are set to 2000 mm, providing enough room for safe, efficient forklift travel and pallet handling. The layout balances storage density with operational accessibility, so the client gains maximum pallet positions without sacrificing daily workflow. Safety Features Protective guard rails at aisle ends and corners protect uprights from forklift impact (R300 corner protection). Top ties connect upright frames for added rigidity at high elevations. Heavy-duty uprights and beams engineered specifically for 3-ton per level loading. Clear 2000 mm aisles reduce collision risk and support smooth material flow. Why This Solution Works for the Customer By combining a very high rack height with robust load ratings, this pallet racking system turns the customer's new warehouse into a high-density storage facility. The back-to-back double-row arrangement with a single wall row squeezes more usable pallet locations into the same floor area, while the 2000 mm aisles keep the operation safe and productive. Every detail was tailored to the site drawing, ensuring the racks fit the building dimensions and workflow from day one. From layout planning and structural design to production and delivery, this Venezuela project reflects our commitment to delivering warehouse storage systems that are engineered for strength, safety, and long-term value.
