Successful Heavy-Duty Pallet Racking Installation in Bosnia: 11 Rows, 220 Sets, 5-Tier Warehouse Solution

Project Overview

We are proud to present a major heavy-duty pallet racking installation successfully completed for a valued client in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This large-scale warehouse project involved the deployment of 220 sets of industrial pallet racks across 11 rows, delivering an exceptional storage capacity of 3,300 pallet positions with a total load-bearing capacity exceeding 2,800 metric tons.

Client Background

Our client, a leading logistics and warehousing operator based in Bosnia and Herzegovina, required a comprehensive storage solution for their expanding distribution center. Faced with growing inventory demands and limited floor space, the client sought a high-density racking system that would maximize vertical storage while maintaining ease of access and heavy-load stability.

After a thorough site assessment and consultation, our engineering team proposed a customized configuration tailored precisely to the client's warehouse dimensions and operational workflow. The solution was designed to accommodate diverse palletized goods with demanding weight requirements.

Technical Specifications

Configuration Layout

The warehouse layout was meticulously planned to optimize both storage density and operational efficiency:

• 10 rows configured back-to-back: Forming 5 double-row blocks that maximize space utilization while providing dual-sided access for forklifts.
• 1 row positioned against the wall: Serving as a single-facing row at the warehouse perimeter, fully utilizing all available floor space.
• Each row consists of 20 individual rack sets, creating long, continuous storage aisles with uniform accessibility.
• Aisle spacing was calculated to accommodate standard counterbalance forklifts, ensuring smooth material handling operations.
• 

Installation & Execution

The installation was executed by our professional on-site engineering team in close coordination with the client's facility management. Key highlights of the installation process include:

• Pre-installation site preparation: Floor leveling verification and anchor point marking to ensure structural integrity.
• Phased assembly approach: Rows were erected sequentially to minimize disruption to the client's ongoing warehouse operations.
• Precision alignment: Each upright frame was laser-aligned to guarantee perfect verticality across the full 11-meter height.
• Safety compliance: All racking components conform to European FEM and EN standards for industrial storage systems.
• Load testing: Post-installation load tests confirmed that every bay met or exceeded the design load of 2,550 kg per layer.

Results & Client Feedback

The client has confirmed that the installation was completed successfully and the racking system is now fully operational. The project delivered the following measurable outcomes:

• Storage capacity increased by over 300% compared to the client's previous floor-stacking method.
• Warehouse footprint utilization improved from approximately 35% to over 85% through vertical storage optimization.
• Operational efficiency gains with clearly organized pallet locations, reducing retrieval time by an estimated 40%.
• Scalability built-in: The modular design allows future expansion as the client's business continues to grow.

This Bosnia installation stands as a testament to our expertise in delivering large-scale, customized racking solutions that meet the rigorous demands of modern warehousing and logistics operations. We extend our sincere appreciation to the client for their trust and collaboration throughout this project.
