Direct factory manufacturing featuring cold-formed structural steel, automated robotic welding, and anti-corrosive powder finishes designed for Argentina’s manufacturing corridors, regional 3PLs, and distribution centers.
Argentina’s logistical geography demands versatile storage architectures capable of handling heavy agrochemical totes, automotive sequence lines, temperature-controlled winemaking facilities, and dense e-commerce fulfillment hubs.
The epicenters of Tortuguitas, Pilar, Esteban Echeverría, and Zárate accommodate South America’s top consumer goods distribution centers. Our Selective Pallet Racks and High-Density Radio Shuttle systems allow AMBA 3PL operators to maximize cubic utilization where land prices exceed historical averages, achieving 100% pallet accessibility for regional Mercado Libre fulfillment hubs.
Connecting the grain export ports along the Paraná River, agrochemical distributors, seed processing plants, and food packaging hubs require heavy load-bearing capacities. We supply customized structural drive-in and heavy-duty beam racks with dynamic safety barriers specifically engineered to store 1000kg IBC totes, bulk fertilizer bags, and seed pallets safely.
Ferreyra and Santa Isabel automotive plants require synchronized Just-in-Time (JIT) material delivery. Our multi-level medium-duty longspan shelving and custom gravity flow carton tracks streamline kitting processes, component picking, and assembly supply lines, completely integrated with heavy steel column protectors to withstand continuous tugger train impacts.
Operating in seismic Zone 3 and 4, Mendoza wineries and refrigerated fruit packaging warehouses require strictly certified CIRSOC 103 racking frameworks. Our hot-rolled and high-tensile cold-rolled uprights support temperature-controlled environments down to -28°C while dampening harmonic ground acceleration under seismic events.
The shale oil and gas operations around Añelo require robust MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) storage for drill bits, heavy valves, piping, and industrial machinery. We deliver structural cantilever racks and heavy welded mezzanine platforms calculated for concentrated point loads exceeding 2000 kg/m².
In Rio Grande and Ushuaia, specialized electronic component manufacturers demand ESD-safe, clean, and highly organized shelving systems. Our electrostatic powder-coated rivet racks and modular mezzanine platforms provide maximum vertical storage efficiency in remote sub-Antarctic assembly facilities.
Over the last decade, Argentine supply chain executives have faced compounding pressures: escalating per-square-meter warehouse leases across the Panamericana highway logistics corridor, strict energy efficiency targets in cold-chain logistics, and an exponential increase in SKU velocity triggered by national e-commerce expansion.
Traditional static wide-aisle racking systems consume up to 60% of warehouse floor footprint solely in forklift transit lanes. To overcome these constraints, Argentine distribution hubs are actively re-engineering facilities with Semi-Automated Radio Shuttle Racking and Multi-Tier Mezzanine Platforms. By reducing aisle space from 3.5 meters down to dedicated loading bays, cubic storage density increases by up to 80% without expanding the physical building shell.
Furthermore, local procurement protocols are increasingly aligning with strict international standards (such as FEM 10.2.02, EN 15512, and RMI MH16.1), moving away from uncertified local steel fabricators to specialized global manufacturers capable of guaranteeing exact steel yield strengths, certified deflection limits, and reproducible quality controls.
Unlike flat alluvial logistics zones like Buenos Aires, western provinces such as Mendoza, San Juan, Salta, and Jujuy represent some of South America’s most seismically volatile zones (Seismic Zones 3 and 4 under Argentine National Institute of Seismic Prevention - INPRES regulations).
Under seismic conditions, warehouse racking structures behave as high-mass unbraced frames. Uncertified uprights risk catastrophically buckling under horizontal ground acceleration forces. Our engineering team conducts dynamic finite element analysis (FEA) compliant with CIRSOC 103 regulations.
Our solutions incorporate thickened baseplates, oversized chemical or mechanical wedge anchor arrays, high-ductility steel cold-formed upright profiles (Q355 grade), and specialized horizontal and diagonal vertical spine bracing. This mitigates beam dislodgement risks and prevents structural failure during seismic events, protecting personnel and high-value stored merchandise.

Discover why industrial supply chain managers, warehouse developers, and EPC contractors choose our direct factory manufacturing and international export program for demanding logistics implementations.
Our production facilities utilize automated multi-station cold roll-forming lines capable of fabricating unbroken upright profiles up to 12 meters in height. Integrated CNC punch heads guarantee millimeter-accurate 50mm and 75mm pitch increments, ensuring rapid field erection and modular adaptability.
We strictly reject secondary scrap melt. All load-bearing uprights, box beams, and structural mezzanine profiles are rolled from certified prime coil meeting ASTM A572 Grade 50 and Q355B specifications, delivering superior tensile strength and impact resilience in cold-store and seismic settings.
All beam connector claws and column baseplate joints are executed by multi-axis robotic welding stations in compliance with AWS D1.1 structural welding standards, eliminating microscopic slag porosity and ensuring structural joint performance under maximum design loads.
Prior to coating, steel members undergo continuous 5-stage automated surface shot-blasting and iron-phosphate bath treatment to remove mill scale. Electrostatic thermoset polyester powders are baked at 200°C, providing an abrasion-proof, chemical-resistant finish resilient to humid subtropical or coastal salt spray environments.
Exporting to South America requires optimized sea freight packaging. Our dedicated staging teams bundle components with wooden Dunnage, custom corner guards, and steel strapping, maximizing cubic volume inside 40-foot High Cube (40' HQ) containers to lower sea freight expenditure per pallet position.
From preliminary DWG CAD layout generation and 3D space rendering to seismic load calculation books and on-site assembly guides, our technical department supports your local engineering team across every milestone of the procurement journey.
Clear, direct answers regarding customs clearance, Argentine standards compliance, sea freight transit, and on-site assembly supervision.
Industrial storage racking systems generally fall under Mercosur Common Nomenclature code NCM 7308.90 (Structures and parts of structures of iron or steel). We provide comprehensive shipping documentation, including legalized Certificates of Origin, detailed commercial invoices, and itemized packing lists tailored to facilitate customs clearance via Puerto de Buenos Aires, Dock Sud, or Zárate.
Yes. The standard Argentine logistics pallet certified by ARLOG (Asociación Civil de Logística de Buenos Aires) measures 1000 mm × 1200 mm. Our beam lengths (commonly 2300 mm for 2-pallet bays, 2700 mm for 3-pallet Europallets, or 3300 mm for 3-pallet Arlog configurations) and rack frame depths (typically 1000 mm to 1100 mm) are dimensioned to maintain required lateral clearances and overhang rules.
Absolutely. For installations in Cuyo, the Andean foothills, or northwestern provinces, our structural engineering division computes dynamic response spectra in strict conformance with CIRSOC 103 Part 1 and Part 4, issuing structural calculation dossiers that can be presented to local municipal building authorities and industrial safety insurers.
Standard manufacturing cycles range between 20 and 30 business days depending on order tonnage. Ocean freight transit times from Southeast Asian/Asian export hubs to Puerto de Buenos Aires typically require 32 to 42 calendar days. We coordinate booking with Tier-1 ocean carriers to guarantee direct, reliable transit schedules.
We provide two flexible operational pathways: we can dispatch an experienced site supervisor to oversee, align, level, and anchor the installation using your local labor crew, or we can furnish detailed, step-by-step CAD installation manuals, torque specifications, and video walkthroughs for execution by your designated mechanical contractors.
Our heavy-duty racking lines are backed by a comprehensive 5-year structural warranty against manufacturing defects. Every shipment is accompanied by Mill Test Certificates (MTC) validating the chemical composition and yield strength of the steel, certified coating thickness inspection sheets, and factory QA/QC sign-off documents.
