The chemical industry includes three categories: the petrochemical industry, the basic chemical industry, and the chemical fiber industry. It is a very large industry involving warehouse storage. There are many subcategories of each major category, and heavy-duty shelving racks used for goods storage are also diverse. Today, let’s list a list of heavy-duty bulk storage racks used more in the chemical industry.
First of all, liquid chemical products, such as petroleum, are packed in oil drums, so they will use heavy-duty warehouse storage racks specially designed for oil drums, also called oil drum racks. It is customized according to the size of the oil barrel. If the specification of the oil barrel is unified, the designed storage rack density will be very high.
As shown in the figure below, the oil barrel heavy-duty steel storage rack customized by a lubricant manufacturer has the same specifications and load-bearing capacity, and the storage density is very high. Moreover, the rack uses outdoor powder spraying, which will not affect the rack’s life if it is placed outdoors.

If the tank sizes are different, selective pallet rack storage can be used. Selective pallet racking systems have low requirements on the specifications, categories, and load-bearing of goods. As long as they are designed according to the largest specifications and load-bearing requirements, they can achieve 100% free picking. Pallet rack is widely used in the basic chemical industry, which has a good effect on the storage of heavy goods.
Light goods can be stored on the heavy-duty warehouse storage racks without any installation required. Longspan shelves are light, medium, and heavy duty. Some specifications of light-duty shelves are available from stock. It is not only widely used in the chemical industry, but also in all walks of life, offices, stores, and so on.
Chemical warehouse racks are mostly used in the above several kinds. If you want to customize, you can consult a professional storage rack factory for design.
