If you look at warehouses today, you’ll notice that a lot of them are made of steel and are already built. Pre-engineered warehouses have a lot of benefits, which is why they have become more popular in recent years. These are mostly steel structures that are made in a factory and put together on-site. They are the right weight, are cheap to build, and last for a long time.
Here are a few great things about pre-engineered steel warehouses that you can’t miss:
1. Easy and quick to build
Steel warehouses that have already been built can be built about 50 percent faster than traditional ones. Everything about the building’s structure, like its size, weight, strength, etc., is planned out ahead of time, and a drawing is made. In a controlled environment in the factory, the production is done exactly how the drawing says it should be done. So, it’s called “pre engineered.” The pieces are then put together and put in place at the job site.
2. Interiors with a clear span
A prefabricated steel building can be made without any support columns. This is called a “clear span.” This means that there are no other things on the floor, so you can store your inventory in the best way possible.
3. High ceilings give you a lot of options
Warehouses can have different ceiling heights based on what is needed. This gives you more options because you can add mezzanine floors, eot cranes, etc. when you need to. With PEBs, you can add more space or put in new equipment without having to make major changes.
4. Easily customizable design
Space can be changed inside the warehouse. So can the outside, such as by adding turbine fans, windows, or extra rooms (office space, storage, etc). Traditional building methods don’t make it easy to change things like this.
5. Long-term savings on costs
Steel lasts for a long time, so warehouses don’t need much maintenance over time. This means that you spend a lot less on repairs and maintenance than you would with a traditional warehouse. Aside from this, most pre-engineered steel warehouses have insulated wall panels that help keep the temperature inside at a good level. So, you save money on extra costs for cooling.
6. Durable
Steel buildings can stand up to bad weather like hailstorms, strong winds, constant rain, wear and tear, etc. Mold and bugs can’t grow on steel, either. Insulated wall panels, such as those made with glasswool, don’t catch fire. All of these things help steel buildings last for a long time.
In the end, steel PEB warehouses are the best choice available right now. One of EPACK PEB’s best-known products is its warehouses. We have been making things for more than 24 years, so we have made both big and small warehouses. These have been moved and set up in the most remote parts of the country without any problems.
