Industrial storage for high value precision machinery

Some manufacturers will be looking to invest in new heavy machinery in order to increase production or take advantage of special deals. Some might not have been so fortunate and sadly, may be considering production line changes or factory relocations or closures.

All of the above scenarios may create the requirement for a temporary secure industrial storage facility to either store the heavy machinery or to provide a space to carry out machinery refurbishment works.

Factory investment – buying new heavy machinery

Our HMRC approved bonded warehouse storage is of benefit to UK machinery agents and distributors who may import machines that have not yet been sold.

We also find they are used by UK based manufacturers who have purchased machinery in advance of the completion of the site where it will be installed. By using our bonded warehousing storage, our customers are able to buy machinery when the best deals or finance is available, whilst also deferring payment of import duty and VAT.

Factory relocations, factory closures and production line changes

Our industrial storage facility is the ideal commercial storage solution for manufacturers who need to either remove a heavy machine from the factory floor due to a factory relocation, internal factory machine moves to enable production line changes, or to make way for new machinery installations.

Our industrial storage facility is also an ideal location within which to carry out heavy machinery maintenance and refurbishment works. This secure heavy machinery storage facility provides 20Te overhead craneage, forklift trucks, Versa-Lifts, hydraulic lifting gantries and lorry mounted cranes to assist in handling and safely positioning your machinery or industrial equipment into our warehouse.
