Most warehouses aren’t truly running out of space; they’re running out of smart ways to utilize it.Across Sri Lanka’s major warehousing sectors, including automotive, FMCG, Food & Beverage, manufacturing, and retail, the same challenges appear repeatedly: wasted vertical space, slow picking speeds, and safety risks caused by narrow pathways. These issues not only reduce operational efficiency but also drive up costs unnecessarily.The instinctive reaction for many businesses is to rent or build more warehouse space. However, expansion is expensive, time-consuming, and often completely avoidable. The more effective solution lies in optimizing the space you already have through intelligent, high-density storage designs.At United Tractors Total Warehouse Solutions, Sri Lanka’s trusted Dexion Asia Pacific agent, we bring more than 50 years of industry experience with the Dexion brand. Our mission is simple: to maximize your warehouse’s capacity and productivity through customized smart solutions that are reliable, effective, and safe.We have delivered storage solutions for some of the country’s largest and most demanding operations:In 2024, John Keells Warehousing (Pvt) Ltd partnered with us for their second project, a Selective Pallet Racking system with 5,000 pallet positions, improving workflow efficiency for high-volume operations.At AMW (Associated Motorways (Pvt) Ltd), we designed and installed a customized racking system with 2,500 pallet positions to handle heavy-duty automotive storage.For Unilever Sri Lanka Ltd, we installed a racking system with 3,000 pallet positions to support high turnover and improve efficiency.For Mercantile Produce Brokers (Pvt) Ltd, we redesigned the warehouse layout to create a total storage capacity of 12,000 pallet positions, improving both accessibility and efficiency.For The Cargo Hub (Pvt) Ltd, we installed a High-Density Storage two-way Dexion shuttle racking system, enhancing efficiency and optimizing storage capacity for automated operations.
