Roll Out Honeycomb Rack for Long Pipe Storage – Sheet Metal & Pipe Storage Racks Manufacturer

In high-density pipe storage environments, every square meter counts. The Roll Out Honeycomb Rack by Herochu answers this challenge with a brilliantly engineered solution that combines honeycomb compartmentalization with full-extension rolling trays—delivering unmatched space efficiency and operator safety.

Designed specifically for warehouses handling 6m to 12m metal pipes, this rack system arranges storage bays in a hexagonal “honeycomb” pattern. This geometry minimizes gaps between pipes, allowing up to 45% more inventory in the same footprint compared to linear cantilever racks. Each honeycomb cell acts as an independent drawer, sliding smoothly on heavy-duty rails for instant access.

The standard model supports 3 tons per layer, with overall dimensions of 6500x3200x3600mm and effective storage cells measuring 600x600x3000mm. Despite its compact appearance, the rack’s steel frame ensures rigidity under load, while the powder-coated finish resists rust in demanding industrial climates.

Key features include:

Individual pull-out handles with labeling zones for SKU identification.
Safety locks to prevent accidental full extension.
Modular assembly for easy expansion or reconfiguration.
Optional forklift legs for mobile deployment.

What makes the Roll Out Honeycomb Rack truly revolutionary is its dual-sided aisle utilization. Pipes can be stored and accessed from both sides of a central corridor, effectively doubling storage capacity without widening the facility. Crane or forklift access is simplified thanks to unobstructed overhead clearance.

Herochu offers two primary configurations:

Internal Pallet System: Ideal for bundled or boxed pipes, allowing one operator to retrieve entire pallets swiftly.
Additional Sliding Support: Recommended for thin-walled or flexible tubing that requires continuous support during extraction.

Both options are customizable in load capacity, layer count, and color. Electric assist is available for high-frequency operations, reducing manual labor and fatigue.

Safety is non-negotiable. Each layer includes raised edge barriers to contain pipes during movement, and all moving parts undergo rigorous cycle testing. The system complies with CE and ISO certifications, ensuring it meets global workplace safety standards.

Real-world impact is significant. A European HVAC manufacturer reported a 50% faster order fulfillment rate after installing these racks, while a shipyard in Singapore eliminated pipe-handling injuries entirely within six months of adoption.

As both manufacturer and trader, Herochu controls the entire production chain—from steel sourcing to final QA—ensuring consistency and reliability. Their technical team provides free layout simulations and can produce samples within 7 days.

For any operation dealing with long, heavy, or high-value pipes, the Roll Out Honeycomb Rack isn’t just storage—it’s a strategic tool for lean inventory management, enhanced safety, and spatial intelligence.
