The mezzanine floor is built very solidly, just like a real warehouse floor, not a temporary mezzanine. Therefore, the load of the mezzanine floor is very high, up to 1200 kg/m2. Usually, this type of mezzanine floor will be installed from 2 to 3 floors in a warehouse to ensure the highest level of stability and safety.

Type of goods stored

It is ideal for warehouses that need to store a wide variety of goods of different sizes and weights to install a mezzanine floor system. The wide floor allows businesses to divide the storage floors into separate storage areas for different types of goods.
However, businesses should also note that the load of goods should not exceed the load of the floor to avoid causing danger when using it.
Normally, heavy goods will be placed on the ground floor for easy pick-up by forklifts, and medium-light goods will be stored on the upper floors so that they can be easily moved by hand pallet truck.
