Leading IT services and distribution company Zycko Ltd contacted Rapid Racking to provide space saving features at their 20,000 square foot facility. A Two Tier system was provided with eight levels of small parts storage for Zycko’s hi-tech products alongside a mezzanine floor. The installation included around 500 shelves, and a pallet racking system that will hold 1000 pallets.

“Rapid Racking was able to take the project from conception to completion and provide all the necessary expertise. They advised us on installing a two tier system including a 175m2 fire rated mezzanine floor which had not
been considered previously. This has optimised our working space and greatly increased storage capacity” – Ben Hogg, Operations

This required a complete review of how Saywell International used its storage space. Rapid Racking and Saywell International agreed a variety of racking methods to protect their spares which support the aircraft industry. Due to the spectrum of sizes and weights of parts to be stored, Saywell required a diverse range of products to ensure efficient organisation of their storage space. Rapid Racking have supplied the company with Rapid 1 and 2 shelving, Pallet Racking, Cantilever Racking and
Workbenches – enabling small parts storage in small boxes to large aircraft spares to be stored effectively.

Cantilever Racking is often the best storage solution when needing to store products of significant length and weight. The Unipart Group, one of Europe’s leading independent logistics, automotive parts and accessory companies, contacted Rapid Racking to devise a cantilever storage system to meet their specific requirements.
The system was designed to store lengths of aluminium alloy up to 24 metres long, with particular attention to the safety considerations necessary. The Design Team worked closely with Unipart and a specialist handling supplier to ensure that Rapid could provide the most efficient and effective solution, providing maximum storage capacity and adequate handling areas.

‘Rapid Racking has provided a solution which considered all aspects of our storage requirements. From our initial contact, we have been consulted every step of the way with regards to design, supply and installation. We are delighted with the outcome and look forward to working with Rapid Racking again very soon’ – Bob Nichols, Unipart.

Drive-in Racking


Rapid Racking worked with Fabulous Bakin’ Boys to optimise space usage in their busy warehouse operation storing goods ready for despatch.
A drive-in racking system was installed some years ago, and has been extended. This offers the best use of floor space, designed to suit customers’ pallet size and weight. Dense storage is provided for finished goods ready for collection, to suit the company’s despatch requirements.

Fabulous Bakin’ Boys now make the best use of their storage space – ‘In terms of floor area usage, this system is as effective as block stacking, but without the safety issues and product damage that we used to get. We are really pleased with the result.’ – Andy Bastable, The Fabulous Bakin’ Boys.
