Engineered for high durability and strict European warehouse safety standards, serving major hubs across Helsinki, Tampere, and Turku.
Finland’s unique position as a Northern European logistics gateway demands high-efficiency warehouse infrastructure. The rapid expansion of third-party logistics (3PL), e-commerce fulfillment hubs near Helsinki-Vantaa Airport, and heavy industrial operations in Tampere, Oulu, and Turku has highlighted the critical importance of modular storage solutions. In particular, medium-duty warehouse shelves rated for 100~300KG per shelf have emerged as the primary hardware layer for manual-picking facilities, automotive parts storage, cold-chain distribution, and light manufacturing inventory management.
Operating storage structures in Finland often involves sub-zero environments, particularly in cold-storage units or unheated transfer terminals. Under cold conditions, ordinary carbon steels can experience a structural transition to brittle behavior. Standard medium-duty racks supplied by DirectRack utilize premium certified steel profiles, ensuring high resilience even down to -30°C. Our structures are powder-coated with specialized anti-corrosive, scratch-resistant polymer layers that prevent microscopic scaling and moisture retention.
Finnish occupational safety regulations enforce strict compliance with European storage equipment standards. Any medium-duty racking system deployed in commercial spaces must undergo structural load deflection analysis. Under SFS-EN 15635, the maximum allowable vertical deflection of a shelf beam under full load is limited to L/200 (where L is the length of the span). Our 100~300KG shelving profiles utilize strategic box-beam geometries and interlocking step beams to minimize deflection, ensuring maximum safety for manual order pickers.
Connecting the warehouse flow directly to Finnish commercial retail floors, bakery hubs, and high-capacity supermarket networks.
In an era of global transport fluctuations and changing raw metal markets, manufacturing consistency is crucial for industrial buyers in Northern Europe. Founded in 2016, Dongguan Dingguan Metal Products Co., Ltd. (DirectRack) is a technology-driven warehouse equipment enterprise located in the industrial heart of Dongguan, Guangdong Province. With over 10 years of industry expertise and 8 years of international export background, DirectRack operates a 25,000 square meter state-of-the-art facility designed for high-precision steel processing and logistics storage output. Our annual export revenue consistently exceeds $18 million USD, supplying premium storage platforms to global networks.
Quality is built directly into our manufacturing sequence. Every step, from sourcing the raw hot-rolled carbon steel coils to final automated powder coating, is monitored by our QA/QC division. Below is our optimized 7-step production flow:
Our precision-engineered manufacturing plant is equipped with multi-axis sheet metal processing systems, heavy punch machines, and high-frequency welding complexes. Directed by our experienced R&D department consisting of 35 senior engineers, we ensure that structural calculations, finite element analysis (FEA) tests, and custom dimensions align perfectly with our clients' technical demands.
At DirectRack, quality is managed at every tier. Our production standards are overseen by 28 specialized QC inspectors, ensuring compliance with both international safety regulations (OSHA, AS4084) and domestic ISO 9001 quality framework requirements. Our standard inspection protocols include:
The warehouse storage sector is shifting toward digital supply integration. Our R&D pipeline focuses on smart storage features that integrate with modern warehouse management software (WMS). By combining structural safety with modular flexibility, we support the digital transition of logistics operations across Finland.
For automated picking layouts, we offer shelving options with integrated weight-sensor plates. These systems continuously monitor load distribution, alerting warehouse managers to potential overload risks or misplaced stock. This technology helps optimize inventory and prevent structural overload before it becomes a hazard.
Finnish industrial clients prioritize environmental responsibility. In response, DirectRack is reducing its environmental footprint by sourcing steel from sustainable mills and using non-toxic, TGIC-free powder coatings. Our steel racks are fully recyclable, helping clients meet corporate sustainability goals and circular economy requirements.
