Engineered to maximize vertical storage space while complying with international safety standards and Metro Manila industrial codes.
Metro Manila, as the economic heart of the Philippines, acts as the primary hub for international trade, e-commerce distribution, and manufacturing logistics. However, the region presents unique operational challenges that demand specialized structural engineering. Industrial areas including the Port of Manila, Tondo, Pandacan, and surrounding industrial zones in CALABARZON (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas) suffer from high industrial land values and real estate constraints. Consequently, modern supply chains are forced to optimize space vertically rather than horizontally, rendering high-capacity pallet racking systems essential to commercial viability.
Unlike standard warehouse configurations deployed in regions of low seismic activity, racking installations in Metro Manila must adhere strictly to the National Structural Code of the Philippines (NSCP 2015) and F.E.M. (European Federation of Materials Handling) standards. Being situated along the Pacific Ring of Fire, Manila warehouses require pallet racks characterized by high ductility, robust upright frames, enlarged baseplates, and dual mechanical floor anchoring. Our structural engineers calculate the dynamic response of racking frames to seismic shear stress, ensuring that dynamic sway is minimized and sudden collapse risks are engineered out of the rack system.
Globally, the logistics sector is transforming through the integration of automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), shuttle-driven radio racking, and double-deep configurations. Suppliers must bridge the gap between traditional static storage frameworks and automated technology. From a manufacturing viewpoint, this requires tight dimensional tolerance management during structural cold-rolling, precise punching geometries, and high-performance powder coat layers that resist standard wear while supporting heavy high-speed robotic shuttle deployments.
Custom-engineered systems for specialized handling, including fabric storage, cold-rolled profiles, and heavy warehouse floor transits.
Quality storage systems rely on the integrity of raw structural steel. At Guangdong Shibang Storage Rack Co., Ltd., we construct our load-bearing frames utilizing cold-rolled steel (grades equivalent to Q235B and Q355B), which offer high yield points and reliable tensile strength. The cold-forming processes profile the metal sheets into upright columns and box-beam layouts, achieving uniform load distribution across dynamic configurations.
Manila’s high average humidity (often exceeding 80% relative humidity) and proximity to coastal marine environments elevate oxidation risks for industrial metal fixtures. To combat rust and structural decay, our production facility deploys a multi-stage electrostatic powder coating line:
This protection is particularly critical for cold storage pallet racks (temperatures reaching -30°C) utilized in Manila's growing cold chain distribution centers, preventing condensation-induced oxidation over long lifespans.
Established in 2016, our 35,000㎡ modern production facility is equipped with automated machinery to supply high-quality industrial systems globally.
With an annual export revenue of approximately USD 18 million and 8 years of export experience, Shibang has accumulated 15 years of industry experience in storage rack manufacturing. We manage the design, fabrication, and quality assurance processes to deliver stable racking systems globally.
Our quality management workflow is ISO 9001-certified, covering raw material inspection, welding quality assurance, dynamic load-bearing tests, and geometric tolerances. The facility utilizes automated welding arms, precision punching machines, and CNC bending technology to maintain consistency across batch sizes.
