As businesses evolve, so do the expectations for storage infrastructure, pushing manufacturers to develop cutting-edge products. In India, the industry faces unique challenges due to older warehouse layouts, driving local manufacturers to create adaptive solutions tailored to the domestic market's needs. Industrial storage rack manufacturers are crucial in optimizing space and enhancing efficiency across warehouses and storage facilities.
These manufacturers design and produce a wide range of storage solutions, including heavy-duty pallet racks, fixed racking systems, and advanced motorized or automated storage systems, catering to the growing demands of industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and retail.
Based out of Kolhapur, Maharashtra, Surya Equipments Pvt. Ltd. is a pioneer in storage racks. The company has a strong research and development (R&D) team, led by Avinash Panchal, an IIT Mumbai postgraduate and a renowned expert in the racking industry with over 35 years of experience.
“Under his leadership, we pioneered the development of the motorized mobile storage system, a groundbreaking solution that revolutionized the Indian racking industry by offering heavy-duty, motorized racks for the first time. This product has become highly popular across the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food sectors”, informs Vidyanand Deodhar, Managing Director, Surya Equipments.
Over the years, the company has introduced other cutting-edge storage solutions such as Vertical Carousels, Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS), Vertistore, and Radio Pallet Shuttles, all developed in-house.
Proudly bearing the ‘Made in India’ tag, the company manufactures all its products domestically.
What differentiates Surya Equipments from other competitors is its unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. Since its inception, the company has prioritized delivering high-quality, safe, and durable products, even if it means sacrificing short-term gains. This is evident in the racking systems, which are designed to handle heavy loads at significant heights, often 10 to 15 meters, and remain safe for operators throughout the product's lifespan.
Client-Centric Solutions
Historically focused on the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food sectors, Surya Equipments has expanded into the industrial sector in the last decade, catering to renowned clients like Tata and the Indian Navy. The company emphasizes client collaboration because it understands that logistics is intertwined with manufacturing processes. The importance of Inventory Optimization cannot be understated for large organizations, since cluttered warehouses and inventory obsolescence are a big nuisance.
Through multiple meetings with both company management and end users, the team ensures a comprehensive understanding of operational needs and tailors storage solutions to fit standard practices and minimize disruption. “Products are not standardized but customized based on client requirements, warehouse layouts, and operational workflows. Once needs are assessed, the design team creates a layout approved by both management and end users, followed by seamless project execution by the production and installation teams”, adds Vidyanand.
We stand by our principles of quality, trust, and client service, delivering durable systems that have proven to enhance productivity, responsiveness, and profitability for over three decades
Expanding Horizons with Innovation
Since its inception, Surya Equipments has evolved from a small local company into a significant player with a robust turnover and an expanding global footprint. With a growing client base that includes industry leaders such as Cipla Ltd., Serum Institute of India Ltd., Abbott India Ltd., Chitale Foods, Glenmark Ltd., Micro Labs Ltd. and Lupin Ltd., the company now serves hundreds of customers across India. Internationally, the company has extended its reach, exporting motorized systems to countries like Brazil, Mexico, Morocco, Algeria, Indonesia, Oman among many other nations.
In the future, the company is focused on developing advanced automation solutions, including Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), to meet the evolving needs of the industry. Through strategic partnerships, the company is now expanding beyond storage systems to offer comprehensive inbound and outbound automation for enhanced operational efficiency.
