Why Heavy-Duty Load Testing Matters

For businesses that rely on efficient and safe storage, load-bearing capacity is a critical factor. Industrial environments, such as warehouses, distribution centers, and retail backrooms, need shelving that can withstand heavy loads consistently and safely. This is where load testing becomes vital. By pushing our shelves to their limits, we ensure that our customers can trust our products to handle their most demanding needs without compromising safety or reliability.

The Atlas Shelving Heavy-Duty Loading Test

Each tier of our Atlas Shelving system is rated to bear a load of up to 3,000 lbs. However, we believe in going beyond the minimum to guarantee performance under real-world conditions. In our recent test, we pushed each tier to support a staggering 3,800 lbs—far beyond its stated capacity.

Test Details:

  • Rated Capacity: 3,000 lbs per tier, 12,000 lbs in total
  • Actual Test Load: 3,800 lbs per tier, 15,200 lbs in total
  • Duration: Extended load-bearing over 48 hours
  • Conditions: Simulated industrial environment with standard usage conditions

This test was conducted using high-precision equipment under stringent safety protocols, ensuring accurate results and compliance with industry regulations.

This performance is a strong testament to the superior design and engineering that goes into every product we create.

  • Weight Supported: 3,800 lbs per tier (exceeding the 3,000 lbs rating)
