Pallet racking

and other racking systems


About Dexion

In 2018, Gonvarri Industries acquired the Constructor Group comprising of Dexion,


Constructor, Kasten, Stalteknik and Kredit and Gonvarri Material Handling was
formed to become the new group parent.

Dexion is a prominent member of Gonvarri Material Handling, a family of brands


which can trace its origins back to 1856.

Dexion’s Audacious Beginnings


The Dexion company (from the Ancient Greek meaning ‘Right’) was originally
forged from Comino’s hunger for efficiency gains across his printing business.
Namely, the need for paper and type storage racks that could quickly and easily be
dismantled and reused.

Comino’s persistence and tenacity paid off. By 1947 he had developed the ‘Dexion
Slotted-Angle’, a framing material that was, weight-for-weight, stronger than wood,
and that could be stored in a fraction of the space needed for wooden timbers.

The first adjustable storage system had arrived, and blazed the trail for Dexion’s
purpose-built pallet racking and shelving systems.

Dexion quickly became the benchmark for innovation with a number of outstanding
milestones:

1956 Slotted-Angle used to build Olympic


Stadium

1957 1st Mobile Pallet Racking installation

1963 ‘Dexiongrad’ built to support the


Yugoslavia earthquake relief

1970 Production of Steel Shelving begins

1980 1st Paternoster installed

1999 Dexion is acquired by Constructor Group


and P90 system launched

2000 Hi280 system launched

2003 1st Tornado automatic storage installed

2011 Cantilever range launched

2014 P90+ system launched


About Dexion

It is testament to those early pioneers that these


systems are still much in demand today.

2 Pallet racking
Introduction to pallet racking

Storing goods on pallets is the most common method to manage warehouse stock.
Pallet racking is the most effective method of storing pallets, but understanding
what type of structure is needed can sometimes be confusing.

Pallet racking is manufactured from steel, which can be a costly commodity.


Having an extensive range of products to choose from, means that we can achieve
the loading capacity you require, with a pallet racking structure that suits your
operation, in a cost effective way.

Our systems can be easily configured in a variety of ways based on your needs and
pallet load, to ensure a functional and logical warehouse storage solution for you.

Whatever the industry, there’s a range of storage systems that can provide optimal
storage economics. From Drive-in Racking or Mobile Racking (MOVO) for frozen
and cold-store goods; to First-in, First-out (FIFO) Pallet-flow systems for bulk goods
such as those with a “best before date”.

Rack inspection

Dexion racking is manufactured to the highest


quality and is designed to give you years of use. But
racking can get damaged or misaligned, making it
a danger to both your staff and your business.
The constant loading and unloading of pallets can compromise
the strength, stability and integrity of any storage system which is
why they need to be inspected regularly for signs of wear and tear.

Inspections can:

• Prevent damage to people or goods


• Extend the life span of facilities
• Minimise future repair costs by discovering risks early
• Offer a speedy repair service

Regular Rack inspections are not only sound business practice,


they are also a legal requirement. All companies are legally
obliged to ensure their employees work in a safe environment
with safe equipment.

Failure to comply can cause serious personal injury and


even death of operatives, reduced productivity and lead to:

• Expensive and disruptive legal proceedings


• Higher insurance premiums
• Damage to reputation

We offer Annual and


Rack inspection

Weekly inspections.
