Some of the clients we've supplied


Some loads simply don’t belong on shelves or pallets. Timber, pipes and tubes, steel bar and box section, extrusions, sheet materials, rolls of fabric or flooring, furnitrue and other long, awkward items all share the same problem… Conventional shelving gets in the way. Cantilever racking solves it. With load-bearing arms projecting from a central column and no front uprights to obstruct loading, items of almost any length can be stored, picked and replenished with ease by hand at lower levels, or by forklift and side-loader on larger installations.

We supply and install Strongcant, a patented heavy-duty cantilever system from the same European manufacturer behind our Unirack shelving range.

What cantilever racking is built to store

  • Timber, board and sheet materials
  • Pipe, tube, conduit and trim
  • Steel bar, box section and extrusions
  • Rolls of fabric, carpet and flooring
  • Furniture and other long, awkward or variable-length loads.

A heavy-duty cantilever that breaks the mould

Strongcant is an innovative, patented system that redefines what cantilever racking can do:

  • Box-section profiles, for both columns and arms, delivering enhanced performance under load.
  • Exclusive patented riveting technology. Welding and painting are eliminated entirely from the manufacturing process.
  • Fully galvanised for exceptional durability with no painting required.
  • Built largely from roll-formed components for consistent quality and a highly competetive price.
  • A manufacturing process with a low environmental impact.

Flexible, and built around your products

  • Columns available in a variety of sizes up to 10 metres high.
  • Arms offered in a range of standard sixes, repositionable on a 100mm connection pitch.
  • Arm levels matched precisely to your products, and rearranged in minutes as they change.
  • Configurable single-sided against a wall, or double-sided for back-to-back storage down a central aisle.
  • Galvanised finish suits tougher environments such as builders’ yards and timber stores.
