Highly adaptable configuration parameters designed to optimize warehouse space utilization in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö.
As the largest logistics market in the Nordic region, Sweden acts as a vital bridge for cargo moving between continental Europe and the broader Scandinavian territories. Propelled by structural changes in e-commerce—driven by consumer expectations for fast delivery via operators like PostNord—and a strong manufacturing base in automotive, telecommunications, and sustainable energy, the demand for warehouse systems has changed significantly. In cities like Gothenburg, Stockholm, and Malmö, logistics hubs are shifting away from traditional low-density storage toward highly optimized, dense systems.
Medium-duty warehouse shelves rated for 100 kg to 300 kg per level sit at the center of this change. Unlike heavy pallet racking which requires heavy lift equipment, or light shelving suited only for small office supplies, the 100–300 kg capacity range provides a versatile solution for manual order picking, bin storage, and semi-automated parts staging. These systems are essential for modern Micro-Fulfillment Centers (MFCs) and Regional Distribution Centers (RDCs), where speed and space efficiency are critical.
Operating a warehouse facility in Sweden requires strict compliance with domestic and European safety codes. Every shelving component must meet safety standards to prevent structural collapse under load and during manual picking operations. At Chengdu CoreStorage, we design our shelving systems to comply with the European standard EN 15635 (Steel static storage systems - Application and maintenance of storage equipment), and align with Arbetsmiljöverket (Swedish Work Environment Authority) guidelines. These standards require precise calculations for stability, seismic considerations (especially relevant near specific industrial zones), and regular inspection protocols. This helps ensure that facilities in Sweden operate safely, reducing operational downtime and protecting workers.

The reliability of a medium-duty rack depends on the manufacturing methods used to build it. To maintain consistent dimensional tolerances and structural integrity, Chengdu CoreStorage has invested in automated machinery. Below is an overview of our core production processes, demonstrating our capabilities as a reliable supplier:
Medium-duty warehouse shelves (100–300KG) are used across several key industries in Sweden:
With high rates of online shopping in Sweden, retail warehouses must process complex orders quickly. The 100-300 kg shelf capacity is well-suited for plastic storage bins, boxed products, and apparel items. These shelving systems can be configured with dividers, wire mesh decks, and drop-in panels to keep goods organized for fast manual picking.
Sweden's automotive supply chain relies on Kanban and Just-In-Time (JIT) parts delivery. Heavy steel parts, brake assemblies, sub-assemblies, and tools are stored on medium-duty shelves near assembly lines. These shelves provide easy access and high load stability, helping to prevent production delays.
Storing pharmaceuticals and temperature-sensitive goods requires corrosion-resistant systems that can withstand cold environments without structural degradation. Our galvanized and epoxy powder-coated finishes are designed to withstand temperature changes from ambient down to -30°C in cold storage, preventing rust and ensuring long-term reliability.
We build our warehouse solutions around safety, quality, and environmental responsibility, aligning with the expectations of Swedish industrial operators:
In response to the growing automation of modern warehouses, CoreStorage is focusing on two key development areas:
Heavy, medium, and light-duty storage solutions designed for Swedish industrial, retail, and commercial operations.
Answers to common structural safety and regulatory questions for Swedish warehouse operations.
In Sweden, industrial shelving systems must comply with the European standard SS-EN 15635, which governs the installation, maintenance, and structural safety of static steel racking systems. The Swedish Work Environment Authority (Arbetsmiljöverket) also requires that all load capacities are clearly marked, and that installations undergo annual safety inspections. All CoreStorage systems are manufactured in compliance with ISO 9001 and CE structural guidelines, simplifying regulatory approvals.
Our load capacity rating indicates the maximum allowable Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) per shelf level. We use CMM automated dimensional and load stress testing to verify load capacity. The racks are engineered with a safety factor of 1.5, meaning a shelf rated for 300 kg is tested to withstand up to 450 kg under controlled conditions without structural failure, helping to prevent accidents caused by uneven loading.
Yes. Our shelves are finished with an electrostatic epoxy powder coating that is baked at high temperatures to create a durable seal. For humid or unheated conditions common in northern Sweden, we offer galvanized steel options. These finishes provide excellent corrosion resistance (Corrosion Class C2-C3 under ISO 12944), protecting against rust and structural wear over time.
Absolutely. Guided by our R&D team of 18 engineers, we provide custom configurations. Uprights can be punched at 50 mm or 75 mm intervals to allow for easy beam adjustment, and we can customize column dimensions and steel thicknesses to meet specific load and layout requirements. We also offer OEM and ODM options to fit specialized storage configurations.
