Proven Engineering Performance

Featured Warehouse Racking Projects in Mexico

Discover how AztecRack Industrial Storage S.A. de C.V. solves complex storage density, seismic compliance, and operational workflow challenges for international buyers expanding operations across Mexico's strategic industrial corridors.

3PL Logistics Hub: High-Density Selective Pallet Rack

Cuautitlán Izcalli, Estado de México

A global logistics operator entering the Central Mexico corridor required an emergency facility transformation from floor-stacked pallet operations to a high-capacity, multi-tier selective pallet racking architecture. AztecRack Industrial Storage S.A. de C.V. executed a complete CAD layout engineering process within 4 business days, optimizing 10.5-meter clear height limits while fully adhering to NOM-006-STPS material handling safety protocols.

14,200Pallet Positions Installed
10.5 mUpright Frame Height
2,500 kgLoad Rating per Level
ANSI MH16.1Structural Design Code

The Challenge

Uncontrolled floor stacking limited warehouse utilization to less than 35% of total cubic volume, while narrow aisle tolerances demanded high structural rigidity to prevent frame deflection during reach truck load handling.

The Engineering Solution

Custom teardrop upright frames engineered with heavy-gauge cold-rolled steel, integrated wire decking for safety compliance, structural column protectors, and CFE seismic-certified anchor assemblies.

Automotive Tier-1 Supplier: Heavy-Duty Push-Back Racking

Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila

Serving a fast-paced automotive manufacturing plant, AztecRack Industrial Storage S.A. de C.V. engineered a 4-deep heavy-duty push-back racking system designed for heavy steel bin containers. The design incorporated heavy-gauge nesting carts on inclined steel rails to streamline Just-In-Time (JIT) line-side component staging while providing maximum resistance to forklift impact forces.

4-DeepHigh-Density Cart Lanes
3,000 kgCart Capacity per Level
High SeismicZone Engineering Standard
45%Floor Space Savings

The Challenge

Frequent replenishment cycles created severe aisle congestion, and standard gravity flow systems could not safely support the non-standard footprints of heavy automotive component racks.

The Engineering Solution

Low-profile structural steel push-back carts with anti-drop safety stops, custom-engineered baseplates to distribute point loads across existing warehouse slab sections, and high-visibility safety yellow powder coating.

Steel Processing Center: Heavy Galvanized Cantilever System

Apodaca, Nuevo León

For a major steel tube and profile distributor in Northern Mexico, AztecRack Industrial Storage S.A. de C.V. manufactured and installed outdoor heavy-duty cantilever racking systems capable of storing 12-meter raw steel bundles. The structural I-beam design featured hot-dip galvanizing for long-term corrosion protection in exposed outdoor yard environments.

12.0 mContinuous Bundle Storage
4,500 kgArm Load Capacity
Hot-Dip GalvanizedWeather-Resistant Finish
100%Crane & Forklift Access

The Challenge

Ground-stored pipe and tubing caused material damage, inefficient crane handling times, and severe safety hazards during heavy weather conditions.

The Engineering Solution

Double-sided structural cantilever towers with adjustable key-way arms, engineered wind and seismic load resistance factors, and removable pipe stop pins for secure material containment.
