Engineered specifically to withstand high humidity environments while maximizing floor efficiency.
An authoritative analysis of West Africa's logistics bottleneck and the shift towards high-capacity racking structures.
Nigeria's macroeconomic shift toward domestic production, e-commerce acceleration, and supply chain localization has created an unprecedented demand for modern logistics and warehousing facilities. As the largest economy in West Africa, regional hubs in Lagos (particularly Ikeja, Lekki Free Trade Zone, and Apapa), Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Kano are facing high land costs and skyrocketing warehouse rental prices. This real estate pressure forces companies to optimize vertical warehouse space. In these industrial setups, 60 Longspan Shelving has emerged as the definitive medium-duty storage system, striking the perfect balance between versatility, cost-effectiveness, and load capacity.
For operations utilizing manual picking methodologies, standard heavy-duty pallet racking is often overkill, whereas light-duty slotted angle shelving fails under the weight of commercial inventory. 60 Longspan shelving—characterized by its 60mm upright column front-face width—offers load capacities ranging from 100 kg to 800 kg per level. However, navigating the local market is a complex task. Nigerian purchasing managers face the dual challenge of sourcing from reputable international manufacturers while mitigating the logistical bottleneck of importing heavy steel structures. Working with seasoned producers like Jracking (Guangdong) Storage Co., Ltd. ensures compliance with international quality standards while optimizing container utilization to lower total landed costs in ports like Tin Can Island or Onne.
The term "60 Longspan" refers to the profile dimension of the vertical upright frame. Specifically, the front face of the roll-formed steel column is 60 mm wide (often paired with a 50mm or 40mm depth, and steel sheet thicknesses between 1.5mm to 2.0mm). This specific steel geometry provides structural rigidity against buckling, making it suitable for multi-tier applications, high-density mezzanines, and long clear spans of up to 2.7 meters without structural deflection.
When deploying racking in humid coastal environments like Lagos or Port Harcourt, standard paint applications will rust within months, leading to catastrophic structural failure. Our manufacturing processes solve this via deep chemical pre-treatment (shot blasting and acid picking) followed by electrostatically applied epoxy powder coating. The resulting corrosion-resistant finish is built to withstand high levels of relative humidity and salty coastal air.
1. E-Commerce Fulfillment: Highly utilized by Lagos-based regional logistics networks (e.g., Jumia, Konga) for high-frequency SKU manual picking zones.
2. FMCG & Retail Hubs: Supermarkets and fast-moving consumer goods depots in Ikeja and Ibadan implement multi-tier setups to store bulk backup cartons.
3. Agricultural Product Storage: Storing packaged cocoa, cashews, and grain seeds in northern hubs like Kano and Kaduna, requiring robust ventilation configurations.
4. Petrochemical & Spare Parts: Port Harcourt industrial supplies warehouses require high-density medium duty shelving for mechanical components and valves.

Lagos features high humidity levels and high land prices. Our 60 Longspan shelving utilizes high-strength, hot-rolled steel treated with a specialized powder coating to prevent corrosion. By supporting multi-level and high-tier configurations, it maximizes vertical space utilization in coastal warehouses.
Yes. As a direct OEM/ODM manufacturer, Jracking customizes height, width, bay depth, color, and load capacities. Our loading configurations range from 100kg up to 800kg per level based on your specific inventory requirements.
Our testing process involves strict quality assurance checks across all stages of production. This includes load capacity assessments, welding inspections, and finish thickness tests performed by our 48 quality control specialists prior to dispatch.
Manufacturing generally takes 20 to 30 days depending on the volume of your order. Transit time to Apapa, Tin Can, or Onne port ranges between 35 and 45 days, allowing for a total delivery timeline of roughly 60 to 75 days.
Yes. The hook-and-lock beam structure does not require specialized tools or welding during installation. We provide clear structural CAD drawings and assembly guides to help local engineering teams install the shelving safely and quickly.
Our logistics department uses specialized packing configurations to bundle frames and nested beams together, reducing packaging volume. This optimization helps you get the maximum amount of shelving parts in each 40ft HQ container, lowering overall shipping costs.
