Space & Savings for your Warehouse operations

Imagine transforming your warehouse to hold more, do more, and grow more, all without the hassle of moving walls or building new structures.

That’s the power of clear span mezzanine floors. These innovative solutions are like adding an extra story inside your existing space, instantly doubling or even tripling your capacity.

Let’s delve into how clear span mezzanines are not just changing the game for warehouses but supercharging business growth across industries.

What Mezzanine Floors do for your business

Creating space out of thin air

At their core, mezzanine floors are all about making smart use of the vertical space that’s often overlooked.

Imagine a sturdy, wide-open floor that sits above part of your existing warehouse area supported by columns but without interfering with the space below. This isn’t just an extra floor, it’s a clear span, meaning there are no pesky pillars in the middle taking up precious space.

Whether it’s for extra storage, a new office area, or a production zone, mezzanine floors give you the room to breathe and grow.

Trends in Warehouse Efficiency

What is the best flooring type for a mezzanine?

There is no one best flooring type for a mezzanine. That’s because the best flooring type for your mezzanine depends on its use. Plus, the weight it needs to support. For example, ready-made timber solutions can be effective in many situations, but if you may have custom weight or thickness requirements, these will override those standard options. The load bearing capacity will vary between types and modes of use. In Australia, mezzanine floors should be able to support 300kg per square metre but if the weight of what you’re storing is greater, then a custom build may be required.

Riding the wave of smart storage

Warehouses aren’t just static spaces for storage anymore; they’re dynamic hubs of efficiency and productivity. Storage is a core part of business operations that needs to maintain its own smooth operation.

But one of the biggest trends is the marriage of clear span mezzanine floors with cutting-edge technology.

From automated sorting systems that zip around the new upper levels to advanced inventory management that tracks every item’s location, these trends are setting new standards in how businesses optimize their operations.

By elevating your storage and integrating tech solutions, you’re not just saving space. You’re stepping into the future of warehousing.

Clear Span floors in action

Real Growth, Real Results

Seeing is believing, and the stories of businesses that have installed clear span mezzanine floors speak volumes.

Compared to expanding your warehouse or renting additional space, installing a Clear Span Mezzanine floor is a cost-effective solution for increasing your storage capacity. It requires minimal construction and can be installed quickly, minimising any disruption to your operations. Additionally, the floor system is reusable and can be easily relocated if you move to a new warehouse in the future.

Imagine a local retailer, previously cramped and struggling to manage inventory, who double their storage space without moving an inch. Or picture a manufacturing company that streamlined its operations, placing raw materials about the production lines, enhancing efficiency dramatically.

We see examples like these every day. These examples demonstrate the power clear span mezzanine floors can have on your business operations efficiency. This is both now and in the future as you continue to grow.
