Who: Vulcan
Where: Napier, New Zealand
Background:
Vulcan Napier is a key part of Vulcan’s national distribution network, serving the Hawke’s Bay region with a growing range of steel and industrial products. As part of their continued growth and expansion, Vulcan Napier recently completed a new facility build designed to meet increasing operational demands.
Challenge:
To support the fitout of their new site, Vulcan required a tailored storage solution that could efficiently handle a wide variety of products. The project called for:
-
Standard pallet racking for general stock
-
Heavy-duty cantilever racking for long or bulky items
-
Vertical moulding racks for vertical storage of extrusions
Solution:
Stackit worked closely with Vulcan to deliver a fully integrated racking solution, designed specifically for their operational needs. The final fitout included:
-
Standard pallet racking fitted with custom-length beams to accommodate long palletised goods
-
Heavy-duty cantilever racking for efficient storage of long, heavy items
-
Vertical moulding racks, enhanced with MDF board inserts for additional storage
Results:
The custom racking solution has optimised Vulcan Napier’s storage capacity and improved material handling throughout the new site:
-
Purpose-built systems that match operational flow and product variety
-
Maximised storage density within the new warehouse footprint
-
Improved accessibility and efficiency for warehouse staff
