Precision-machined, powder-coated steel pallet racks manufactured strictly to European (FEM / EN) and American (RMI) standards for high-bay storage efficiency across Bangladesh.
From Dhaka Export Processing Zone (DEPZ) to Chittagong Port industrial clusters, our racking solutions are custom-engineered to solve acute spatial and environmental challenges.
We source structural Q235B and high-strength Q355B cold-rolled steel exclusively from Baosteel and Masteel. Mill test certificates are provided with every Bangladesh export shipment to guarantee true load-bearing performance.
Equipped with Swiss Gema electrostatic spraying systems. Steel components undergo 10-stage degreasing and surface pretreatment, followed by thermosetting epoxy curing at 180°C to withstand tropical humidity in Chittagong and Narayanganj.
Engineered in strict accordance with the Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC). Frame geometry, diagonal bracing ratios, and anchor bolt embedment depths are calculated to safely endure Zone 1-3 seismic stresses and high structural loads.
Export packaging designed specifically for ocean container freight (20GP/40HQ). Uprights and beams are bundled with heavy steel strapping, while small accessories are protected in moisture-sealed plywood crates to prevent transit damage.
Our engineering team provides comprehensive spatial layout CAD drawings, 3D structural visualizer renderings, and precise rack load distribution charts free of charge before project commitment.
To eliminate on-site erection errors in Bangladeshi facilities, components undergo rigorous pre-shipment trial assembly in our factory. Hole-pitch alignment is verified to within ±2mm over 12-meter upright lengths.
Bangladesh’s industrial sector is undergoing a profound transformation. Driven by the expansion of the Ready-Made Garments (RMG) sector, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing, and cold-chain infrastructure, modern warehousing demand is surging across key economic corridors including Gazipur, Savar, Narayanganj, Chattogram (Chittagong), and the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) under BEZA (Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority).
Historically, many Bangladeshi logistics operators relied on low-density floor stacking or localized, non-standard angle-iron shelving. However, rising industrial land values in metro Dhaka and Chittagong—coupled with strict international audit requirements (such as ACCORD, Alliance, and ISO standards for export factories)—have made standard, engineered pallet racking systems an absolute operational necessity.
Industrial facility managers in Bangladesh face distinct operational hurdles that directly influence racking system selection:

Explore how our heavy-duty pallet racking solutions solve specific sector challenges in major Bangladeshi industrial hubs.
In Bangladesh’s massive RMG export sector, warehouses handle millions of yards of raw woven/knit fabric alongside finished carton boxes ready for European and North American buyers. Our heavy-duty selective pallet racks feature customized wire mesh decking and drop-in support bars, enabling safe storage of non-standard pallet loads, boxed garments, and heavy fabric rolls up to 3,500kg per beam level.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers in Savar and Bhaluka operate strict Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) environments. Our pallet racking systems utilize smooth, non-porous electrostatic powder coating that resists chemical cleaning agents and prevents particulate accumulation. Adjustable beam levels accommodate raw API drums, packaging materials, and cold-room inventory with complete batch traceability.
Seafood processing (shrimp exports) in Chittagong and dairy/poultry cold chains in Narayanganj require storage operating at -25°C. Cold storage room space is exceptionally costly to power. We supply Drive-In racking and automated Radio Shuttle pallet racking manufactured with low-temperature resilient steel alloys and hot-dip galvanizing to eliminate rust and maximize cubic freezing capacity.
Fast-growing consumer retail and e-commerce distribution centers require rapid order fulfillment and high throughput. Our European-standard selective racking systems permit 100% immediate forklift access to every SKU. Integrated frame protectors, column guards, and heavy-duty steel decking ensure safe, continuous operations during peak operational shifts.
As Bangladesh progresses toward graduating from Least Developed Country (LDC) status and works toward Smart Bangladesh Vision 2041, logistics infrastructure is evolving at an unprecedented pace. The inauguration of megaprojects—such as the Padma Bridge Rail Link, the Dhaka Elevated Expressway, the Third Terminal at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, and the Matarbari Deep Sea Port—is unlocking seamless multimodal freight transit.
To match this infrastructure leap, forward-thinking Bangladeshi enterprises are transitioning from basic static storage to advanced automated and high-density racking topologies:
By reducing aisle widths from 3.5 meters to 1.8 meters, VNA racking increases pallet storage density by up to 50% without altering building footprints—ideal for space-constrained industrial zones in Dhaka.
Radio shuttle carts eliminate the need for forklifts to drive deep inside racking channels, drastically reducing rack impact damage, improving worker safety, and accelerating pallet loading cycles in high-volume food and FMCG warehouses.
Rack-supported mezzanine floors utilize vertical building height to create two, three, or four levels of manual picking space above ground-level heavy pallet storage, expanding operational floor area by up to 300%.
As a leading global manufacturer and exporter of warehouse storage systems, ApexDrive Industrial Racking Co., Ltd. (established in September 2006 in Nanjing, China) operates a modern 20,000+ square meter production base equipped with over 150 sets of advanced metal processing machinery. Our annual structural steel processing capacity exceeds 30,000 metric tons, supporting large-scale warehouse projects across 60+ countries worldwide.
Our continuous automated roll-forming mills produce upright columns up to 12 meters in a single continuous piece. Cumulative hole-pitch error is strictly controlled within ±2mm across a 12-meter profile length, guaranteeing perfect beam locking and structural squareness.
Beam connectors and structural baseplates are joined using automated robotic welding manipulators. This eliminates human welding flaws, porosity, and incomplete penetration, ensuring maximum beam shear strength under heavy loads.

Yes. While standard European (1200 x 800mm) and ISO (1200 x 1000mm) pallets are widely used in Bangladesh, many local factories use custom wooden or plastic pallets (e.g., 1100 x 1100mm or non-standard RMG cargo frames). Our structural engineers customize beam spans, depth dimensions, frame profiles, and pallet support bars precisely to your load dimensions and forklift operating radius.
Every component undergoes a 10-stage surface preparation process (degreasing, rust removal, phosphating) before electrostatic epoxy powder coating. For coastal regions like Chittagong, Mongla, or high-humidity cold storage rooms, we offer Hot-Dip Galvanizing (HDG) conforming to ISO 1461 standards, which provides a heavy zinc coating thickness of 60-80μm for ultimate anti-corrosion protection.
Yes. Every shipment includes step-by-step English installation manuals, structural assembly drawings, and video tutorials. For major warehouse installations in Dhaka, Gazipur, Narayanganj, or Chittagong, we can dispatch experienced installation engineers to your site to supervise local erection crews, ensure proper anchoring, and perform final load testing before commissioning.
Manufacturing lead time at our factory typically ranges from 15 to 25 days depending on total tonnage and system customization. Direct ocean container shipping from Nanjing/Shanghai Port to Chittagong (CTG) Port generally takes 10 to 14 transit days. Overall door-to-port delivery can be comfortably completed within 30 to 40 days from L/C confirmation.
We fully support 100% Irrevocable Letter of Credit (L/C at sight) issued by top-tier Bangladeshi commercial banks (such as Eastern Bank, BRAC Bank, Dutch-Bangla Bank, HSBC, or Standard Chartered). We also accept T/T (Telegraphic Transfer) deposit terms for smaller accessory orders.
