Industrial Shelving
Optimised Storage for Efficient Maintenance
The Challenge: Creating a Robust Storage System for Heavy and Light Equipment
Network Rail required a storage solution for their Hereford maintenance hub, part of a strategy to improve railway infrastructure. The depot needed robust shelving for heavy plant and spare parts, with easy access and clear labelling for efficient retrieval.
The Approach: Designing a Tailored Solution for Efficient Storage
Link51, as a trusted supplier, designed and installed tailored storage solutions for the depot. This included a combination of Longspan shelving for heavy items and Euro shelving for lighter tools, with flexibility for future adjustments.
The Solution: Maximising Space and Access with Custom Shelving
The layout featured various storage areas, including Longspan shelving for emergency spares, bespoke racking for hand tools, and heavy-duty workstations. The solution maximised space while ensuring easy access to parts and tools for engineers.
The Result: Enhanced Efficiency and Faster Response Times
The installation increased efficiency and response times, with engineers able to manage parts and plant more effectively. The project was completed quickly despite a busy site environment, meeting Network Rail's operational needs.
