Conventional Pallet Racking
Kimer’s Conventional Pallet Racking is the most versatile and universal solution for storing palletized loads. This system provides direct and individual access to each pallet, enabling efficient inventory management and quick product location.
Thanks to its modular design, it easily adapts to different types of goods, weights, and sizes, offering great flexibility for any sector or logistical need. In addition, its robust structure ensures the safety and stability of the load, while its open layout allows for immediate visual stock control, simplifying restocking and order preparation tasks.

- The most flexible system for palletized loads.
- Compliant with FEM and EN standards.
Practical Applications
- Palletized loads with a large variety of references
- Possibility to combine lower picking levels with upper pallet storage levels
- Adaptability: easy to change the arrangement of levels per module
- Easy to expand or relocate according to the customer’s needs
- Ideal for warehouses requiring tight stock control and direct access to each pallet.
Why choose Kimer?
Greater distance between holes gives Kimer uprights higher strength.
Optimized to distribute loads most efficiently: the distance between crossbeams is smaller in the first section to compensate for the higher load accumulation at the base of the upright.
Multiple weld points joining the two C-sections of the beam. These welds help extend the product’s lifespan.
Kimer uprights are made from high-quality S-355 steel (high yield strength).
Kimer beam connectors are larger than the market average, allowing for more uniform load distribution from the beam to the upright.
- 4 claws: 220mm
- 5 claws: 270mm
Kimer offers the widest range of frames and beams in the market, providing 22 beam models and 15 upright models.

Beams
Horizontal elements installed along the frame that form the load levels. Their main function is to support the weight of the goods. They are attached to the uprights via connectors located at both ends of the beam.
The number of load levels depends on the quantity and dimensions of the stored goods. Kimer offers a wide range of beams, grouped into three main categories:
Tube Beams
Made from tubular-shaped steel profiles and welded to the connectors using robotic welding.
2C Beams
Formed by two interlocked C-shaped steel profiles, also welded to the connectors using robotic welding.
Picking Beams
Designed to hold shelves or boards where goods are placed. They feature a raised top edge that serves as a stopper for the shelf or board. Depending on the load, Kimer offers the ZM, 73 Stepped, and 104 Stepped beam models.
Frame Base
The base’s main function is to transfer the frame’s load to the ground and to prevent any movement of the structure.
Depending on the load and the type of strut, we offer different types of feet. (NR-H-RECESSED.)
Kimer offers its customers two finishes: Painted and Hot-dip Galvanized.
Anchors
Anchors secure the racking system to the floor. The number and size of anchors used depends on the load requirements.
Kimer recommendation: embedded base
Greater safety: Fully inserted into the upright, ensuring optimal stability.
Better use of storage space: With the upright’s front face exposed, the first storage level can be positioned closer to the ground.
Improved impact resistance: The upright does not twist thanks to front and rear anchoring.
Tube Beams
2C Beams
Picking Beams
Frame Splice Kit
Developed to join two frames vertically, allowing the creation of taller racking systems based on specific storage requirements.
Spacer
A steel component used to brace and stabilize the connection between two parallel frames, ensuring overall system rigidity.
Safety Pins
Kimer beam connectors feature three positions for inserting safety pins. This enables precise placement and prevents the pins from dislodging with use. Safety pins secure the beam and prevent accidental dislodgement.
Finishes
Painted finish
Kimer uses only high-quality epoxy paint with a glossy finish. We employ the most advanced equipment to ensure optimal corrosion protection, while maintaining a uniform and aesthetic appearance. Our automated robotic paint tunnels apply the following treatments:
- Degreasing
- Phosphating – Kimer uses non-polluting substances in this process.
- Rinsing with tap water
- Rinsing with demineralized water – The water is treated using reverse osmosis so it can be reused.trata por osmosis inversa para poder ser reutilizada
- Painting with M-1 class fire-retardant paint, in accordance with UNE-23.727-90, via electrostatic projection.
- Polymerized in an oven at a temperature of 200 ºC for approximately 20 minutes.

Kimer custom colors
We can adapt to the most demanding customer requirements, painting our products in any RAL color available on the market.
Pre-galvanized
At Kimer, we use only top-quality materials.
We only use pre-galvanized steel with a Z275 grade or higher.
Thanks to this high quality, which contains a greater amount of zinc, our systems do not require any additional treatment to resist oxidation and corrosion under normal indoor conditions.
Hot-dip galvanized
This finish is achieved by immersing the piece in a bath of molten zinc at a temperature of 440–460°C, resulting in a coating with a thickness of 65 to 100 microns of zinc across the entire piece.
Through this process, the entire piece is coated with zinc. Kimer recommends this finish as extra protection against oxidation.
Accessories
Pallet stop
An additional safety component designed to prevent pallets from accidentally sliding out of the racking system.
Kimer offers various models to suit different configurations:
Compact beam (painted or galvanized)
2C/TB beam
Continuous tube
Floor-level application
Its function is to assist in correctly positioning pallets placed directly on the floor.
Protectors
Lateral Protector: Installed on external frames or in areas with a high risk of accidental impacts, providing added lateral protection.
Upright Protector: Made from a 400 mm high metal plate, its primary function is to prevent damage from forklift impacts.
Mesh Back Panel: Prevents pallets or their loads from falling backwards.
Highly recommended for racking systems located adjacent to work areas.
Upright Reinforcement: The ideal solution when upright protection is needed above floor level, where ground-anchored protectors are not viable. Made from a bent metal sheet in a wedge shape for added resistance.
