UK provider of industrial storage and warehouse solutions, PD Industrial, has announced the completion of a high-specification pallet racking installation at a major new logistics hub in Nuneaton.
The 1,000,000ft² facility was developed by Baytree (AXA) and built by Glencar and is designed to meet the highest modern logistics standards.
Operating under full CDM regulations as both Principal Designer and Principal Contractor, PD managed the end-to-end transformation of the space.
The facility will have a storage capacity of more than 13,500 total pallet positions with 468 bays of advanced pallet racking.
It is engineered to hold 11,112 pallets across 5,556 double-stacked locations, alongside 2,466 single-stacked pallet locations.
This is in addition to precision floor grinding with specialised floor prep to ensure perfect level tolerances for high-density operations.
Integrated wire guidance has been installed to support safe and automated Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) truck navigation.
PD Industrial managing director, Darren Hardiman, said: “We are incredibly proud to have acted as Principal Contractor on this highly prestigious development, one of the greenest and most ecologically developed warehouses ever built in the UK.
“Delivering over 13,500 pallet positions in just nine weeks requires precision engineering and tight project management and is a significant undertaking.
“Working within a world-class, award-winning building allowed us to showcase our ability to deliver high-density, safe, and highly efficient warehouse environments ahead of schedule.”
