Transforming Storage Space for Ambitious Businesses

  • Direct access to every pallet
  • Flexible beam heights for changing stock

At Oakway, industrial shelving is more than just storage, it’s the foundation of an organised, efficient operation.

We help ambitious businesses maximise space, improve accessibility and create smarter storage environments through intelligently designed shelving systems.

Our approach is simple: understand how your storage space is used, design a system that improves efficiency today, and ensure it scales as your business grows.

From warehouses and workshops to stockrooms and commercial facilities, we deliver industrial shelving systems that enhance organisation, productivity and space utilisation.

As a turnkey partner, Oakway consults, designs, supplies and installs shelving systems with full accountability from concept to completion.

The result is a storage environment that works harder for your business – improving organisation, increasing capacity and supporting operational efficiency.

Why the Right Industrial Shelving System Matters

The right shelving system does far more than store items.

When properly designed, it can:

  • Increase usable storage space
  • Improve organisation and stock visibility
  • Reduce time spent locating and handling items
  • Support safer working environments
  • Enable faster picking and replenishment
  • Adapt to changing storage requirements

At Oakway, every shelving solution starts with a clear understanding of how your space operates.

We assess product types, storage volumes, access requirements and workflows to create a system that delivers both immediate efficiency and long-term flexibility.

Types of Industrial Shelving Systems

Different environments require different storage solutions.

Oakway designs and installs a range of industrial shelving systems to suit varying operational needs, item sizes and storage volumes.

Longspan Shelving

Flexible, heavy-duty shelving for bulk storage.

Longspan shelving is ideal for storing larger, heavier items that don’t suit standard shelving. With adjustable shelf levels and high load capacities, it offers a versatile solution for warehouses, stockrooms and workshops.

This system is particularly effective for hand-loaded goods, cartons and bulky inventory.

Carton Live

Improve picking speed with gravity-fed shelving

Carton live shelving systems use gravity-fed roller tracks to move stock from the loading side to the picking face, ensuring products are always accessible and correctly rotated.

Ideal for fast-moving goods and order picking environments, carton live systems support FIFO (first in, first out) stock management while significantly reducing picking time and labour.

This makes them a popular choice for eCommerce, distribution centres, and operations focused on efficiency and accuracy.

Multi-Tier Shelving Systems

Maximise vertical space without expanding your footprint.

Multi-tier shelving systems create additional storage levels within your existing space, dramatically increasing capacity without the need to relocate.

Ideal for operations with high SKU counts and limited floor space, these systems improve picking efficiency and organisation.

Standard shelving

Standard shelving provides a practical and economical solution for storing lighter items in offices, stockrooms, and back-of-house environments.

Easy to install and reconfigure, this shelving type is perfect for businesses that need straightforward, accessible storage without the complexity of larger systems.

It’s an ideal starting point for organising inventory, documents, or small parts in a clean and efficient way.

V Store

V Store systems are designed to maximise storage density while maintaining fast and accurate access to items. By utilising vertical space more efficiently, they allow you to store more within a smaller footprint.

These systems are particularly suited to operations where space is at a premium but organisation and accessibility remain critical.

Whether used for parts storage, retail backrooms, or specialised inventory, V Store offers a modern, scalable solution for growing businesses.

Designing Industrial Shelving Around Your Space

No two storage environments are the same.

That’s why Oakway designs industrial shelving systems around the real conditions within your facility.

Before recommending any solution, we assess key factors such as:

  • Available space and layout
  • Item sizes, weights and storage requirements
  • Stock volumes and turnover rates
  • Access methods and picking processes
  • Operational workflows
  • Future growth and scalability

By combining these insights with proven design principles, we create shelving systems that maximise space while supporting efficient, safe operations.
