Industrial-grade, high-capacity racking configurations engineered for immediate shipping and structural resilience.
Panama's geographical position defines it as the absolute primary multimodal logistics hub of Central and South America. At the heart of this network is the Panama Canal, coupled with the world-renowned Colon Free Zone (CFZ) and the Pacific-to-Atlantic interoceanic rail connection. These elements combine to demand unparalleled supply chain efficiency, forcing local warehouses, third-party logistics (3PL) providers, and regional distributors to maximize spatial volume while maintaining rapid throughput.
For operations within the Colon Free Zone, Panama Pacifico, and the metropolitan logistics parks flanking Panama City, warehouse capacity is no longer just about space—it is about vertical volume optimization. High-density racking systems, selective pallet racks, and fast-assembly boltless shelving are necessary to support high rotation speeds. Due to the proximity to both oceans, local storage equipment faces severe environmental challenges, requiring superior metallurgical specifications and protective coatings to withstand high relative humidity (averaging 80%-90% year-round) and salt spray corrosion.
Panama sits within a complex tectonic boundary. Seismic stability is key for vertical systems exceeding 6 meters. Every selective pallet rack and structural drive-in system must conform to international standards such as RMI (Rack Manufacturers Institute) guidelines and local construction codes, ensuring seismic anchor baseplates and heavy-duty uprights are engineered for high elastic limits.
Shenzhen Runda Racking Manufacturing Co., Ltd. - Industrial Storage Pioneers Since 2015
Established in 2015, Shenzhen Runda Racking Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a premier manufacturer specializing in heavy-duty industrial shelving and high-density warehouse storage solutions. With over 11 years of deep industry expertise and 9 years of active global export experience, we deliver tailored racking systems to logistics hubs, distribution centers, and manufacturing plants worldwide.
Operating from a modern 35,000 square meter production facility, our operations are powered by a robust network of over 1,200 trusted supply chain partners. This enables us to achieve an annual export turnover of $28 million. Our primary markets span North America, Western Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, where we proudly serve industrial distributors, large-scale third-party logistics (3PL) operators, and direct enterprise buyers.
Quality and innovation drive our core philosophy. We maintain strict quality control through full-process sampling inspection, raw material stress testing, and load-bearing verification, backed by a dedicated team of 35 QC professionals. Innovation is led by our 18 experienced R&D engineers who continuously refine structural efficiency—releasing over 120 new and upgraded storage products last year alone.
We offer comprehensive OEM/ODM and full custom manufacturing services, including tailored load capacities, custom dimensions, corrosion-resistant powder coatings, and specialized seismic structural designs. Supported by our experienced international trade background, Shenzhen Runda provides seamless end-to-end service, from technical layout design to reliable global shipment execution.
Precision-crafted display systems and double-sided structural racking optimized for rapid-transit storage and high-visibility retail.

For facilities close to Puerto Balboa and Puerto Cristobal, selective racking is standard. Runda's modular frames allow fast alteration of beam heights, catering to varying cargo profiles arriving via shipping containers.
With Panama acting as a major food export hub (fruits, seafood), cold storage demands drive-in or shuttle racking systems. Our cold-galvanized surface treatment prevents degradation in temperatures as low as -30°C.
Runda integrates high-ductility connection clips between beams and uprights, preventing dislodging under sudden seismic activity, a safety standard necessary for heavy industrial operations in Central America.

Transit Days
Fast maritime freight route connecting Shenzhen Shekou Port directly to Panama Balboa and Cristobal Terminals.
Container Utilization
We utilize specialized CAD packaging designs to stack heavy beams and upright columns, reducing unused volume in 40ft HQ containers.
Customs Delays
Complete custom documents provided including Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, Packing List, and certified structural load calculations.
Expert structural engineering insights to ensure safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance for local installations.
All our heavy-duty racking systems are engineered in accordance with the RMI (Rack Manufacturers Institute) specification MH16.1 and European FEM 10.2.02 standards. We use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to verify the load-bearing capacity of our structural profiles, uprights, and beam connectors under dynamic stress scenarios, including seismic occurrences common to the Central American Isthmus.
Panama has a highly humid and saline environment. To address this, we treat all steel components through a rigorous multi-stage chemical cleaning process, followed by an electrostatic application of high-durability epoxy-polyester powder coating. The resulting surface layer has a minimum thickness of 80 to 120 microns. Additionally, for outdoor or high-corrosion zones, we offer hot-dip galvanized finishes and pre-galvanized upright configurations.
Yes. We provide comprehensive CAD and 3D layout drawing services. Customers just need to share the raw dimensional files of their warehouse (including column grids, fire exit lines, and ceiling clear heights). Our technical engineering team will design the layout to maximize pallet position density while matching the turning radius of your local forklift fleet (VNA, Reach Trucks, or standard Counterbalance forklifts).
Manufacturing typically takes 15 to 25 days depending on the customization tier (e.g., custom seismic baseplates or non-standard frame heights). Shipping from Shenzhen Port to Cristobal (Atlantic side) or Balboa (Pacific side) takes approximately 22 to 30 days. We manage the entire export process, providing all necessary documents to ensure smooth customs clearance through Colon Free Zone transit channels.
Absolutely. Our racking systems are designed with a modular boltless beam-to-frame connection, which significantly simplifies installation. Every shipment includes structural assembly drawings, torque specifications for floor anchor bolts, and load-limit layout placards. Additionally, our engineering team is available via video call to support local contractors during installation.
