Vantec: Auto Parts Racking

The Challenge: High-Capacity, Multi-Pallet Storage for Auto Parts

Vantec Europe Ltd (VEU), a leading automotive logistics provider, required a high-density pallet racking solution for its new 436,000 sq. ft. distribution centre in Washington, Tyne & Wear. Handling over four million containers annually for Nissan Motor Manufacturing UK (NMUK), the facility needed a space-optimised, multi-pallet storage system to support their Just In Time (JIT) logistics operations.

The Solution: Bespoke Pallet Racking for Maximum Efficiency

Whittan’s Link51 pallet racking was designed to deliver over 11,000 pallet spaces, accommodating multiple pallet types, including standard, wood, metal, and RPX pallets. The solution featured an in-rack sprinkler system, mesh flues for safety, and guide rails for streamlined warehouse operations. A modular racking layout was implemented to integrate seamlessly with the warehouse’s structural framework, ensuring scalability for future growth.

The Impact: Optimised Space, Increased Productivity, Future-Proof Storage

The high-capacity racking system significantly improved warehouse efficiency, enabling faster picking and dispatch while ensuring maximum space utilisation. By enhancing storage flexibility, safety, and operational flow, the solution supports VEU’s continued growth as NMUK’s preferred 3PL provider, reinforcing their position as a leader in automotive logistics.

Whittan’s Link51 pallet racking provides a robust, scalable, and efficient storage solution tailored for the fast-paced demands of the automotive industry.
