Industry-specific storage systems
For the furniture and timber industry, a special storage technology is an important feature to achieve an economic stock holding pallets and transport packages in a pallet rack, and primary material, timber and panels in a Cantilever rack. Due to the manufactured products and the applied material, voluminous goods should be stored in a space-saving and prompt commissioning friendly method.
OHRA is a specialised company for this particular way of stock holding, and manufactures individual racking systems for the furniture and timber industry:
- Optimal utilization of existing surfaces
- Optimization of picking routes
- Highest quality ensures longevity
- Integration in the production flow
- Customized system technology
Cantilever Racks
Especially in the furniture and timber industry the perfect storage of the heavy and unwieldy panels is an important fact. In the receiving store, material such as MDF panels or chipboards for production are stored with different sizes and with direct access.
High payloads and an adjustable system for changing demands meet the principle of an economic stock holding with direct access and a small place requirement. Starting from a manually operated Cantilever Racking up to complete warehouse buildings for the storage of any materials, OHRA supplies all construction elements, accessories or high-rise trucks, by request including the verifiable calculation.
Automatic storage system
Storage optimization through the partial and full automation of loading and unloading processes. With high picking capacities, performance increases according to the “goods-to-man” principle. Depending on the requirement, whole packages or single panels can be taken and transported to the transfer station.
- Highest possible handling turnover for picking orders
- From manual to fully automatic control, expandable at any time
- Interfacing to customer ERP software via a module
- Storage and retrieval vehicle to service several lanes using cornering technique
- In doing so, reduction of investment costs, optimal price-performance ratio
Pallet Racks
Pallet racking is a universal racking system for a broad variety of products. Due to its robust construction OHRA pallet racking is unique compared to conventional pallet racking made out of sheet metal; Ohra racking is capable of offering a much higher loading capacity. The use of hot-rolled steel profiles for supporting components offers an important safety factor in your warehouse, especially in areas where staff or clients are. At the same time, the racking can be more economical because of the larger bay widths, therefore, less components are necessary than with conventional rack systems with a low load capacity.
Mezzanine floors
OHRA racking platforms can be used in various ways. Whether as additional storage area, picking area or as sales floor, the individual design possibilities are universal. The self-supporting construction fits into any existing building and can be customised individually according to the available space.
- Robust combination of rack systems and mezzanine
- Additional second and third level possible 350 kg/m² standard capacity load on the walkway between the racks
- Various platform surfaces, according to requirements
- Broad range of accessories, for example, lighting, ladders and stairs

Stocker Fensterbau AG,
A new mobile racking system from OHRA enables J. Stocker Fensterbau AG to significantly expand its storage capacities for squared timber with only a very small additional space requirement.
Schneider
Jos. Schneider GmbH has created a new drive-in warehouse with OHRA cantilever and pallet racks for garden and wooden items, in their new Hagebaumarkt store in Dorfen, Bavaria. OHRA designed and equipped the drive-in warehouse as a rack clad building: The racking columns simultaneously serve as support structures for the warehouse construction.
Gerbrich
The Czech door manufacturer Gerbrich was able to create high storage capacities in a small area for its production by using cantilever racks from OHRA. The racking system also enables efficient storage processes due to the fast handling of the goods and the good overview of the stock and thus a reliable supply to the production with the required materials such as chipboard or panelling.
van Deuveren
Increasingly, companies are using the option of individual colouring for their racks. In this way, a corporate design can also be continued inside a warehouse or different storage areas can be visually separated. OHRA, the European market leader for cantilever racking, powder-coated the racking in various RAL colours for the new headquarters of "Houthandel van Deuveren" in Dedemsvaart, the Netherlands. The colours are matched to the façade so that the racks and building form a harmonious unit that reflects the modernity and quality of the company's services.
Trend Hout
Trendhout, the Dutch specialist for exclusive garden buildings, has equipped its new logistics centre in Hattemerbroek with racking systems from OHRA. The focus of the system layout was to create as much storage capacity as possible on the available space. In just two weeks, OHRA installed a steel volume equivalent to six fully loaded trucks - resulting in a racking system with 390 meters of cantilever racking and storage space for 1,422 pallets. As a result, Trendhout has been able to significantly improve the efficiency and time required for order picking, stock levels are now organized and clear, and delivery reliability has increased.
