Shelving is essential in most workplaces, however as your storage needs grow, static shelving may not be the most efficient use of space. Mobile shelving is a popular option for commercial or academic applications, in fact it can help any business improve their office filing capacity.

Plus, these clever shelving systems could save you thousands of dollars over the term of your lease while providing a more efficient filing system.
Manual or mechanical assisted mobile storage options can be tailored to suit your space and storage requirements – the number of bays and shelf levels required can be customised accordingly. With low profile tracks, these mobile shelving systems are safe and also allow for wheelchair access.
