Cantilever Racking for Timber Storage
Timber supplies within the UK are currently at an all-time low. Experts have warned that suppliers could face a shortage of timber unless the UK boosts its commercial plantation sites.
The shortage of timber not only affects large companies but also has an impact on small businesses (SMEs) and independent buyers.
Supply and demand mean that the UK will be paying higher prices for imports, causing a dramatic increase in consumer cost. With this in mind, the correct timber storage is essential to all businesses, especially at these uncertain times and with price hikes.
Timber is a resilient material; however, poor storage could cause damage, resulting in wastage of the product.
Timber, including hardwoods such as Oak, Beech and Birch, or softwoods, panel products, MDF and plywood, is best stored off ground level to ensure no warping occurs due to damp and poor airflow.
There are several options available when storing timber and wood products. To achieve long-term optimal results, industrial racking is the best solution.

Everything was carried out exactly as planned, and they even made some on-the-spot adjustments to tailor the installation to our needs on the day. The whole process was smooth, well-organised, and completed to a very high standard.
