Engineered for high density, optimal space utilization, and rapid transport across Central Asia's trade corridors.
As the largest landlocked nation globally, Kazakhstan serves as the central anchor of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (TITR), also known as the "Middle Corridor." The rapid expansion of logistics hubs in strategic cities such as Almaty, Astana, Aktau, and Shymkent has triggered an unprecedented demand for modern, high-density industrial racking systems.
Modern distribution centers in Kazakhstan require flexible, heavy-duty racking solutions that can adapt to rapid turnover cycles. Foldable and collapsible rack configurations have emerged as a critical cost-saving asset. When empty, these structural units collapse to save up to 75% of warehouse floor space, optimizing return logistics and lowering overall supply chain costs between China, Kazakhstan, and Europe.
For warehouses located in earthquake-prone zones of Central Asia, structural integrity is non-negotiable. Our engineering team designs rack frames with specific factors in mind:
| Engineering Parameter | Standard Specification |
|---|---|
| Steel Grade Compliances | Q235B / Q345B High-Tensile Steel |
| Seismic Zones Safety | Grade 7 to 9 (SNiP RK 2.03-30-2006) |
| Baseplate Anchoring | Dual expansion anchor bolts (M12-M16) |
| Surface Treatment | Electrostatic Epoxy Powder Coat (60-80μm) |
Partnering with a leading Chinese racking manufacturer like Shenzhen Lijin Storage Equipment Co., Ltd. offers unparalleled supply-chain advantages for Kazakhstani enterprises. Benefiting from China's robust industrial raw material market, we acquire premium-grade structural steel at optimized rates, passing those savings directly to our partners.
Additionally, our factory leverages direct rail links (the Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe Railway corridor) passing straight through the Khorgos Dry Port. This offers transit times of under 10 days to Almaty and Astana—combining the speed of domestic trucking with the economy of international rail shipping.
Established in 2015, Shenzhen Lijin Storage Equipment Co., Ltd. is a leading enterprise specializing in the design, manufacturing, and global distribution of heavy-duty warehouse racking systems, automated storage solutions, and industrial shelving. Spanning a state-of-the-art facility of 35,000 m², we have developed into a trusted global supply chain partner with over 8 years of direct export experience and more than 12 years of deep industry expertise. Driven by innovation and quality, our global revenue reached USD 22 million last year.
From high-volume agricultural grain facilities to extreme cold chain storage, our products meet tough industrial requirements.
Our 35,000 m² factory employs automated laser cutting, continuous roll-forming lines, and robotic welding stations to guarantee the structural load limit of every upright frame and beam.
Premium storage components engineered to optimize space, improve picking speed, and ensure workplace safety.
Important details for importing, specifying, and installing warehouse racks in Central Asia.
As a member of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), Kazakhstan shares a unified customs territory with Russia, Belarus, Armenia, and Kyrgyzstan. Standard steel structures, including warehouse racking systems under HS Code 9403208009 or 7308909809, are typically subject to an import duty ranging between 5% and 10%, along with the standard Kazakhstani Value Added Tax (VAT) rate of 12%. When shipping from our Shenzhen factory, we supply all necessary documentation—including the Certificate of Origin (Form A or CO), detailed packing lists, and commercial invoices—to ensure hassle-free customs clearance through Khorgos or Alashankou-Dostyk rail gates.
Southern Kazakhstan, particularly the Almaty region, is situated in an active seismic zone. We run finite element analysis (FEA) on our storage systems to ensure they comply with local building regulations (such as SNiP RK 2.03-30-2006). For projects in these regions, we utilize thicker upright columns, heavy-duty baseplates, dual floor-anchoring points, and X-bracing setups to effectively distribute seismic lateral forces. This prevents catastrophic rack collapse during seismic tremors.
Our main shipping routes run via direct rail freight lines connecting Shenzhen or Chengdu to Almaty and Astana. The typical transit duration is between 12 to 18 days, inclusive of border transshipment at Khorgos or Dostyk. For time-critical projects, direct road transport on trucks from the border can reduce delivery times to under 10 days, presenting a highly efficient logistics plan for construction projects in Central Asia.
Yes. For cold storage and freezer applications, especially in northern regions like Astana and Pavlodar where warehouse temperatures run consistently below sub-zero levels, we strongly advise using hot-dip galvanized (HDG) structural finishes. The zinc-iron alloy coating provides rust protection that resists chipping or peeling in high-moisture and condensation environments, outlasting standard electrostatic powder coatings under extreme temperature cycles.
Shenzhen Lijin provides comprehensive installation support. We provide detailed 3D assembly guides, structural layout drawings, and video instructions for every racking project. For large-scale projects (such as heavy-duty mezzanine floors or automated storage platforms), we can coordinate with local engineering companies in Kazakhstan or deploy our experienced technicians to provide on-site assembly supervision and structural testing.
Contact our engineering desk today. We provide free CAD and 3D drawings within 48 hours, fully adjusted to your local seismic safety and structural load criteria.
