With a workforce of 300 dedicated employees and 16 years of production and export experience, we have mastered the balance between heavy-duty capacity and operational efficiency. Our product range, which includes telescopic cantilever metal shelving and automatic loading and unloading warehouses, is designed to meet the diverse needs of the global market. We are not just selling racks; we are providing the foundation for industrial growth.

The Strength of Standardization

One of the key differentiators for Herochu is our commitment to standardized production lines. In an industry often plagued by inconsistency, we have implemented automated control for our key manufacturing links. This ensures that every rack produced is identical in quality and specification to the last.

Standardization allows us to maintain a steadily rising daily output without compromising on the structural integrity of our products. It means that when a client orders a replacement unit or an expansion of their current system, the new equipment will fit perfectly with the old. This modularity is essential for businesses that are scaling their operations and need reliable, interchangeable storage solutions.

Versatility in Metal Storage

Our expertise covers the full spectrum of metal storage. From the delicate handling required for laser-cut sheet metal to the brute strength needed for heavy piping, our catalog is comprehensive. Our telescopic cantilever shelving is a prime example of our engineering versatility. These units can be extended or retracted to accommodate different lengths of material, making them ideal for facilities that handle a wide variety of stock.

Furthermore, our heavy-duty metal shelving is designed to maximize vertical space. By utilizing the full height of a warehouse, businesses can significantly increase their storage density without expanding their physical footprint. This efficiency is crucial in today’s real estate market, where warehouse space is at a premium.

Quality You Can Verify

We believe that quality should be verifiable, not just claimed. As a Manufacturer of Storage Equipment for Sheet Metal and Tubing, we subject our products to rigorous end-to-end quality control. From the entry of raw materials to the final packaging, every step is documented and inspected.

Our load testing protocols are among the strictest in the industry. We test key load-bearing indicators to ensure that our racks can handle the dynamic forces of loading and unloading. This dedication to safety is backed by our ISO9001 certification and our ability to provide CE marks for European markets. We ensure that our products are not only compliant but exceptional.

Protecting Your Investment

Industrial equipment is a long-term investment, and it must be protected against the environment. We use an advanced electrostatic spraying process for all our metal products. This coating is far superior to traditional wet paint, offering a hard, durable shell that resists corrosion and abrasion.

This surface treatment ensures that our racks look professional and perform reliably for years. It prevents the rust that can weaken steel over time and keeps the equipment looking clean and organized. This attention to detail is part of the Herochu promise of durability.

Our team of 300 professionals works tirelessly to ensure that every piece of equipment we produce meets the rigorous demands of modern industry.

Specialized Storage for Delicate Materials

Sheet metal requires a specific approach to storage. Unlike boxed goods or palletized items, metal sheets are prone to damage if not supported correctly. Our laser-cut metal shelving and drawer-type metal shelving are designed with this in mind. The laser-cutting process allows for intricate designs that provide maximum support with minimal material interference.

Our drawer-type systems are particularly effective for high-value metals. They allow operators to access specific sheets without disturbing the rest of the stack. This “first-in, first-out” capability is crucial for manufacturing environments where inventory turnover is high. By minimizing handling, we minimize the risk of damage, preserving the quality of the material until it reaches the production line.

Robust Construction for Heavy Loads

When it comes to tubing and heavy piping, the requirements shift from delicacy to raw strength. Our heavy-duty metal and pipe shelving units are engineered to handle substantial loads. We utilize high-tensile steel and reinforced joinery to ensure that these racks can support the weight of long, dense materials without bowing or collapsing.

The structural integrity of our heavy-duty lines is non-negotiable. We employ a standardized operation process that includes automated control of key manufacturing links. This ensures that every beam, upright, and connector is produced with exact specifications. Consistency in manufacturing leads to predictability in performance, giving our clients the confidence to load their racks to full capacity.

End-to-End Quality Control

Trust is earned through consistency. At Herochu, we have implemented a rigorous end-to-end quality control regime. The journey of a storage unit begins with the inspection of raw materials. We only source steel that meets national and industry standards. From there, the material is tracked through every stage of production.

Before a product is approved for shipment, it undergoes strict load testing. We do not rely on assumptions; we verify the load-bearing capacity of our designs through physical testing. This internal validation process ensures that the equipment we send to our global partners is safe, reliable, and ready for immediate use.

Certified for Global Markets

As a Manufacturer of Storage Equipment for Sheet Metal and Tubing, we operate on a global stage. We understand the importance of compliance and certification. Herochu has passed the ISO9001 quality management system certification, a globally recognized standard for quality assurance.

Additionally, we can provide CE certification and other international accreditations based on customer needs. This flexibility allows us to serve markets in Europe, North America, and beyond, ensuring that our equipment meets local safety and operational regulations. Our clients can import and install our systems with the assurance that they meet the highest international benchmarks.

Advanced Surface Treatment

The longevity of industrial equipment is often determined by its surface finish. Industrial environments can be corrosive, and standard paint is often insufficient. We utilize an electrostatic spraying process that bonds the coating to the metal at a molecular level.

This process creates a finish that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also highly resistant to rust, chipping, and wear. Whether the equipment is stored indoors or in a semi-exposed environment, the electrostatic coating provides a shield against the elements. This commitment to surface treatment ensures that Herochu products maintain their structural integrity and appearance for years to come.

Bespoke Design and Configuration

We recognize that standard solutions do not always fit unique problems. Our professional design team is available to support OEM and ODM requests. With 16 years of experience, our engineers can flexibly configure warehousing equipment to match the specific dimensions and load requirements of your facility.

Whether you need to maximize vertical space in a low-ceiling warehouse or require a specific color code for safety zoning, we can deliver. Our goal is to provide a “one-stop” solution that integrates perfectly with your existing operations.

Defining Industrial Metal Storage Racks

Industrial metal storage racks differ from general warehouse racks in five critical aspects:

1. Load capacity – Industrial racks typically support 2000 kg to 8000 kg per level, versus 500–1000 kg for commercial racks.
2. Impact resistance – Uprights must withstand collisions from forklifts or overhead cranes without buckling.
3. Corrosion protection – Metal storage environments often include humidity, coolants, or salt spray (in coastal locations).
4. Modularity – Industrial users frequently change inventory profiles; racks must adapt to different product dimensions.
5. Integration – High-throughput facilities require racks that interface with automated shuttles, cranes, or WMS.

Herochu’s entire product portfolio addresses these five points, making the company a recognized industrial metal storage racks manufacturer.

Herochu’s Industrial Rack Series

The company produces four heavy-duty configurations:

• Laser-Cut Metal Shelving – Uprights are formed from 3.0mm or 4.0mm thick steel (versus 1.5–2.0mm for light-duty). The laser-cut hole pattern includes reinforced gussets at beam connection points. Each shelf level is rated up to 3000 kg with 800 mm beam spacing. Optional seismic bracing kits are available for regions with earthquake risk.
• Drawer-Type Metal Shelving – Designed for high-density storage of small metal parts, dies, or tooling. Drawers ride on hardened steel telescopic slides with a 100% extension ratio and 2000 kg capacity per drawer. A mechanical lock prevents tip-over. Drawer interiors can be subdivided with steel dividers or foam liners. Typical applications include stamping press die storage and finished component kitting.
• Telescopic Cantilever Metal Shelving – For long materials such as steel bars, tubes, or extrusions. The telescopic arms extend 800 mm beyond the upright, allowing crane or forklift access from a single aisle. Arms are rated 500 kg each, with 12 arms per bay providing 6000 kg total. The cantilever columns are fabricated from 6mm thick box sections, welded to 12mm base plates bolted to the floor.
• Heavy-Duty Metal and Pipe Shelving – A hybrid system where the same upright frame accepts either flat decks (for sheets/plates) or V-shaped cradles (for pipes/tubes). Changeover requires no tools; the support inserts snap into pre-punched holes. This flexibility is particularly valuable in metal service centers that handle diverse product mixes.

Automated Loading and Unloading Metal Material Warehouses

For facilities requiring high throughput, Herochu designs and builds automatic storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) specifically for metal materials. These systems include:

• Gantry robots with vacuum lifters for sheets or electromagnetic grippers for ferrous bars.
• Shuttle carts that travel within rack aisles, transferring materials to/from the front picking station.
• Warehouse management software that tracks inventory by grade, thickness, length, and heat number.

One recent installation for a stainless steel distributor automated the storage of 2000 tonnes of sheet and tube products. Retrieval time dropped from 12 minutes (manual) to 90 seconds (automated). The automated racks share structural components with Herochu’s static racks, simplifying spare parts and maintenance training. As an industrial metal storage racks manufacturer, Herochu provides both the hardware and the control system integration, including PLC programming and HMI design.

Standardized Production Lines with Automated Quality Control

Herochu’s factory operates on lean manufacturing principles. Each production line has automated control of key parameters:

• Roll forming – 21 stations with servo feeds; inline laser measurement of profile width and depth.
• Laser cutting – 6kW fiber lasers for upright holes and beam end-plates; cutting accuracy ±0.3mm.
• Robotic welding – 12 welding cells with seam tracking; 100% penetration on all structural joints.
• Electrostatic coating – Reciprocating guns with thickness monitoring; oven temperature profiled daily.

This automation enables steadily rising daily output while maintaining consistency. Over the past 18 months, Herochu increased daily rack production by 27% through line balancing and predictive maintenance.

End-to-End Quality Control and Load Testing

Every industrial rack undergoes a five-stage quality gate:

1. Raw material – Spectrometer check of steel grade (e.g., Q355B for high-strength components).
2. Fabrication – Dimensional inspection of each part; CMM for critical hole patterns.
3. Welding – Ultrasonic testing of all load-bearing welds; dye penetrant for visible cracks.
4. Coating – Thickness gauge (60–100μm) and cross-hatch adhesion test.
5. Assembly – Full bay assembly with load test at 125% of rated capacity.

The load test is performed on a hydraulic press that applies force through a segmented platen. Deflection is measured at three points: mid-span of beams, center of shelf, and top of uprights. Acceptable limits: L/300 for beams, L/200 for shelves, and no permanent set. Test reports are archived for 15 years, traceable by serial number.

Surface Treatment for Industrial Environments

Industrial metal storage racks face harsh conditions: moisture, chemical fumes, and mechanical abrasion. Herochu’s electrostatic spraying process includes a five-stage pretreatment (degrease, rinse, pickle, rinse, phosphate) followed by epoxy-polyester powder. The cured coating achieves:

• Salt spray resistance: 720 hours to red rust (ASTM B117)
• Impact resistance: direct impact 2.5 J (ISO 6272)
• Adhesion: rating 0 (ISO 2409)
• Hardness: 2H pencil (ASTM D3363)

For outdoor or corrosive environments (e.g., fertilizer plants, coastal storage), Herochu can apply a zinc-rich primer followed by polyurethane topcoat, increasing salt spray resistance to 1000+ hours.

Certifications and Global Compliance

Herochu is ISO9001:2015 certified, with all processes documented and audited annually. Product certifications include:

• CE – EN 15512 (adjustable pallet racking), EN 15635 (application and maintenance), EN 15878 (steel static storage systems)
