Optimized for structural integrity under SS-EN standards and operational reliability in sub-zero Nordic environments.
Sweden is at the global forefront of green logistics, supply chain decarbonization, and automation. With key logistics clusters centered around Gothenburg, Jönköping, Stockholm-Nord, and Malmö, Swedish firms face severe land costs, strict building height restrictions, and the highest average warehouse labor costs across the Nordic countries.
These macroeconomic pressures render conventional selective racking systems inefficient. Swedish companies are rapidly shifting from manual forklift storage systems to automated radio shuttle racking (satellitvagn). Modern distribution networks require high volumetric density, structural durability, and flawless integration with automated material handling vehicles.
"To meet Sweden's 'Fossil-Free Logistics 2045' initiative, smart warehouse architecture must maximize cube utilization, lowering energy consumption per pallet stored, especially in heated and cold-chain facilities."
By using smart storage engineering, automated pallet runner cars move payloads dynamically within deep lanes, saving up to 80% of warehouse aisle space. This layout eliminates standard forklift transit channels and cuts handling cycles by 40%.
For industrial structures built in the Swedish market, safety compliance is non-negotiable. Racking installations must adhere strictly to the Swedish Work Environment Authority (Arbetsmiljöverket) guidelines, European Standard SS-EN 15635 (Steel static storage systems), and the design standards of FEM 10.2.02.
Environmental factors like localized ground vibrations near mining districts in northern Sweden (e.g., Kiruna, Gällivare) and cold stress in sub-zero locations require high-grade, impact-resistant cold-rolled steel. Our manufacturing plant relies exclusively on premium, traceable structural steel to ensure load-bearing components maintain ductile toughness and do not become brittle under severe conditions.
Established in 2015, Shenzhen Sanyang Storage Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a leading manufacturer specializing in heavy-duty industrial pallet racking, warehouse shelving systems, and automated material handling solutions. Located in Shenzhen, our modern facility spans a total building area of 38,000 m², equipped with advanced automated roll-forming machines, laser cutters, and robot welding lines.
With over 12 years of industry experience and 8 years of active export experience, Sanyang has expanded its international footprint, achieving an annual export revenue of $28 million USD. Our main overseas markets cover North America, Western Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, primarily serving global logistics hubs, e-commerce fulfillment centers, third-party logistics (3PL) providers, and large manufacturing enterprises.
Quality and precision are at the core of our operations. Supported by 35 full-time QC inspectors, we implement rigorous quality assurance protocols using ultrasonic weld flaw detection, coating thickness testing, and heavy-load stress tests to ensure strict compliance with ISO9001 and international FEM/ANSI safety standards. Backed by a strong OEM/ODM background and a robust network of 1,200 supply chain partners, we offer highly customizable options—ranging from custom dimensions and load capacities to specialized powder coatings and seismic-resistant structural designs.
Innovation drives our continuous growth. Our team of 18 R&D engineers focuses on developing high-density and automated storage systems, successfully launching 65 new products last year alone. Sanyang remains dedicated to providing safe, space-saving, and cost-effective storage solutions for our global clientele.

Sweden's prominent position in temperature-controlled food distribution and pharmaceuticals (with giants like ICA, Axfood, and Coop running massive operations) demands warehouse systems that survive sub-zero climates. Standard industrial machinery suffers structural embrittlement and battery failure under sustained low temperatures.
To overcome this, Sanyang's Sweden-Bound pallet shuttles feature internal heaters, thermal isolation blankets, and specialized non-crystallizing low-viscosity lubricants. Our high-performance lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries are wrapped in self-heating thermal jackets, keeping them at optimal operational efficiency inside cold chambers.
We apply hot-dip galvanization (compliant with SS-EN ISO 1461) on the steel guide rails to protect against condensation during cyclic temperature variations, preventing rust formation and ensuring a long structural lifecycle.
Consistent with Sweden's rigorous safety regulations (Arbetsmiljöverket regulations for machine safety), our shuttle carts are built with complex active and passive safety features:
Custom OEM solutions engineered for complex warehouse structures, wood distribution warehouses, and multi-directional storage.

| Storage System Type | Space Utilization | Throughput Speed | Forklift Risk Level | Ideal Temp Range | CAPEX Rating | OPEX Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Selective Pallet Racking | 40% - 50% | Medium | High Risk | -10°C to +40°C | Low | Medium |
| Drive-In Racking | 60% - 70% | Slow | Critical Risk | -20°C to +40°C | Low-Medium | Low |

| Full ASRS Crane System | 85% - 95% | Continuous | Zero Risk | -30°C to +45°C | High | High |
Providing high information gain through automated, software-driven mechanics engineered for modern supply chains.
Seamless communication interface connecting shuttle systems with major enterprise software platforms like SAP, NYCE.LOGIC, and Microsoft Dynamics, enabling real-time stock updates.
Integrated kinetic energy collection systems convert mechanical braking force into electric power, reducing charging cycles and battery operational costs by 15%.
Internal hardware diagnostic systems monitor mechanical wear, wheel alignment, and engine temperature, warning system operators before errors interrupt operations.
Engineered for warehouse density, fast pallet movement, and heavy-payload logistics environments.
The next generation of Swedish warehouses will rely on highly autonomous systems. As artificial intelligence advances, shuttle networks are transitioning from simple remote-controlled operations (2D shuttles) to autonomous, multi-directional intelligent fleets (4-way radio shuttles).
These units dynamically navigate between racking levels using vertical automated lifts. This configuration completely removes manual lift trucks from high-bay setups, cutting labor overheads and minimizing forklift impacts on steel racking uprights.
Sanyang's active R&D program focuses on three main engineering areas:
