- Capacity: 260 pallet spaces
Second Run:
- Specifications: 5250mm high x 19030mm long x 6300mm deep
- Configuration: 4 pallets high (double-stacked) x 5 pallets deep x 13 lanes wide
- Capacity: 228 pallet spaces
- Special Design: Included a provision to house a refrigerator unit set on a stand approximately 2400mm off the ground, aligned with the pallet rail level.
Verge Barrier System:
- Description: Installed several sections to ensure strong and safe segregation of vehicles and people within the facility.
