Safely Store Your Soapstone: Secure & Protected Storage.
Storing soapstone effectively in a warehouse setting offers several key advantages for businesses handling this beautiful and durable stone. Soapstone, known for its natural softness and unique aesthetic, benefits greatly from a stable, dry environment within a well-managed warehouse. Proper storage minimizes the risk of surface damage caused by dust accumulation or potential impacts during handling. We recommend utilizing shelving units constructed from sturdy materials like steel to provide robust support and prevent scratching. Grouping the soapstone pieces strategically, perhaps by size or finish, can further reduce the likelihood of movement and damage. Maintaining a clean and organized warehouse space is paramount, and regularly inspecting the storage area for any potential hazards – such as dropped objects or uneven surfaces – is essential. Warehouse storage provides a secure and accessible location for bulk inventory, offering a dedicated space that is typically well-lit and easily accessible for receiving and shipping. Furthermore, the inherent stability of a warehouse environment – with consistent air movement and protection from direct sunlight – contributes to the longevity of your soapstone products. Strategic placement and careful handling are the cornerstones of successful storage.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 80 square feet, 10ft x 8ft area, Height clearance: 9 feet. A dedicated aisle space of 3 feet is required for access.
Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area should be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation. Avoid direct sunlight exposure. The floor should be level and clean to prevent damage to the soap stone.
Special Handling: Soap stone is a relatively durable material, but it is susceptible to scratching and chipping. Items should be wrapped in protective padding such as bubble wrap or foam sheeting before stacking or moving. Pallet wrap is recommended for larger pieces.
Stacking/Shelving: Items can be stacked up to 4 feet high, utilizing sturdy shelving units with a minimum of 12 inches between shelves. Pallet storage is acceptable for larger blocks, utilizing standard 48” x 40” pallets. Ensure shelving is strong enough to support the weight of stacked soap stone.
Access Requirements: A standard 12ft x 10ft loading dock is required. Dock door width should be at least 10 feet. A clearance of 8 feet is needed on either side of the loading dock for truck maneuvering. The door should have a minimum width of 10 feet.
