Rethink Steel Storage: A Smarter, Safer, and Space-Efficient Solution with UPMOVIOM

If you’re still using traditional vertical racks to store long steel products, it may be time to take a hard look at what it's really costing you.

Beyond the obvious safety concerns, conventional racking systems often waste valuable floor space, complicate stock control, and lead to inefficient material handling. In an industry where margins and safety matter, that’s a problem.

Enter UPMOVIOM—a next-generation material storage solution engineered specifically for steel service centres, fabricators, and steel merchants who want to modernise their operations.

Meet the UPMOVIOM Long Material (LM) Storage System

The UPMOVIOM LM System is a modular, vertically optimised, and low-maintenance storage solution designed to handle long, heavy, and awkwardly shaped steel products, such as SHS, RHS, tubes, flats, rounds, angles, and more, with unmatched efficiency and safety.

Unlike traditional storage, which often becomes a bottleneck, this system turns storage into a strategic advantage.

Why Industry Leaders Are Making the Switch

Steel industry operators across the ANZ region are choosing UPMOVIOM for compelling, measurable benefits:

Rapid ROI

Cut labour costs, reduce material damage, and speed up order picking. The efficiency gains alone can offset the system’s investment within months.

Up to 50% Space Savings

By using vertical space intelligently, UPMOVIOM can reduce your storage footprint by half, freeing up valuable real estate for production, dispatch, or expansion.

Zero Maintenance, Safer Handling

No moving parts means fewer breakdowns and reduced risk. The fixed structure improves workplace safety by removing the need for manual handling in confined areas.

Fully Modular and Scalable

Grow your storage as your business grows—vertically, horizontally, or by adding additional bays. Adapt the system to suit changing product profiles or order volumes.

No Concrete Slab Required

Install on compacted ground or existing warehouse floors—saving up to $100/m² on concrete for greenfield builds.
