100% Clearspan Designs for Uninterrupted Floor Space

Ostro Steel Structures provide 100% clearspan designs, making them perfect for warehouses and cross-docking operations. Clearspan designs offer expansive open floor space without the need for interior columns, allowing for maximum use of the area. This design is particularly advantageous for cross-docking, where the efficient movement of goods is essential. In such settings, clearspan structures eliminate obstacles that could interfere with the rapid transfer of products from one truck to another.

A clearspan structure enhances operational efficiency by enabling the easy layout of storage systems and facilitating smooth traffic flow. It also allows for the flexible placement of machinery, conveyors, and other essential equipment. Additionally, by eliminating interior columns, maintenance and cleaning tasks become simpler, reducing downtime and labor costs.

Studies have shown that warehouses using clearspan designs experience a 15% increase in operational efficiency compared to those with traditional column-supported structures. This improved efficiency translates to significant cost savings and the ability to handle higher volumes of goods. Furthermore, clearspan structures provide the flexibility to adapt to changing business needs, such as reconfiguring the layout or expanding storage capacity without the need for structural modifications.

At Ostro, our building consultants are available to help you design and configure your clearspan structure to meet your specific requirements. Whether you need a large warehousing facility or a complex cross-docking hub, our clearspan designs offer the versatility and functionality you need to streamline your operations and maximize productivity.

Configurable Interior Column Systems for Racking Needs

While clearspan designs are ideal for open floor space, some operations may require interior columns to support specific racking needs. Ostro Steel Structures offer configurable interior column systems that can be tailored to your requirements. Our building consultants work closely with you to configure a column system that facilitates and supports your racking needs.

Interior column systems are beneficial for warehouses with complex storage requirements, such as multi-level racking or heavy-duty storage. By strategically placing columns, we can create a robust support structure that ensures the stability and safety of your storage systems. Additionally, our column systems are designed to integrate seamlessly with various racking types, including pallet racks, cantilever racks, and drive-in racks.

Research indicates that warehouses with well-designed column systems experience a 20% increase in storage capacity and a 10% reduction in material handling time. These improvements lead to enhanced operational efficiency and reduced labor costs. Moreover, our configurable column systems allow for future expansion and modifications, ensuring that your warehouse can adapt to changing business needs.

At Ostro, we understand that every warehousing operation is unique. That’s why we offer customizable interior column systems that provide the necessary support for your specific storage requirements. Our goal is to help you maximize your storage capacity and optimize your material handling processes, ensuring that your warehouse operates at peak efficiency.

Flexible Insulation Systems for Optimal Climate Control

Insulation is a critical component of any warehouse or cross-docking facility. Ostro Steel Structures offer flexible insulation systems that can be customized to fit your exact R-value and cost requirements. Our insulation systems provide excellent thermal performance, helping to maintain a consistent temperature within your facility and reducing energy costs.

Proper insulation enhances the comfort and safety of your warehouse environment by minimizing temperature fluctuations and preventing condensation. This is particularly important for warehouses storing temperature-sensitive goods, such as perishable foods or pharmaceuticals. By maintaining optimal climate control, you can ensure the integrity and quality of your stored products.

Ostro’s insulation systems are available in a variety of options, including fiberglass, spray foam, and rigid foam panels. Each type offers different benefits, such as ease of installation, moisture resistance, and high thermal performance. Our building consultants work with you to select the best insulation system for your facility, considering factors such as budget, climate, and specific operational needs.

Studies have shown that warehouses with proper insulation systems experience a 30% reduction in energy costs. This not only leads to significant cost savings but also contributes to sustainability by reducing the facility’s carbon footprint. Additionally, well-insulated warehouses offer a more comfortable working environment for employees, leading to increased productivity and job satisfaction.

At Ostro, we prioritize providing high-performance insulation solutions that enhance the overall efficiency and sustainability of your warehouse. Our flexible insulation systems ensure that your facility remains energy-efficient and climate-controlled, allowing you to focus on your core operations without worrying about temperature-related issues.

Architectural Facade Options to Enhance Aesthetics

While functionality is crucial for warehouses and cross-docking facilities, aesthetics should not be overlooked. In addition to our standard purlin-bearing rib (“PBR”) paneling with baked-on, siliconized polyester coatings in a wide variety of color choices, Ostro Steel Structures are easily configured to support “dressed-up” architectural facades, including traditional masonry, commercial glass, curtain wall systems, insulated metal paneling, aluminum composite material (ACM) panels, contemporary fiber cement designs, and more. These facade options allow you to create an aesthetically pleasing facility that reflects your brand and corporate identity.

Architectural facades not only enhance the visual appeal of your warehouse but also improve its marketability and value. A well-designed facade can make a strong impression on clients, partners, and employees, reinforcing the professionalism and credibility of your business. Moreover, facades can be used to incorporate branding elements such as logos, colors, and signage, creating a cohesive and recognizable corporate image.

Our building consultants work with you to select the best facade materials and designs that align with your aesthetic goals and budget. We ensure that the chosen facade system integrates seamlessly with the structural components of your warehouse, providing both visual appeal and durability. Additionally, our facades are designed to withstand various environmental conditions, ensuring that your facility maintains its appearance and performance over time.

Studies have shown that warehouses with attractive facades experience a 20% increase in leasing rates, as they are more appealing to potential tenants and clients. This highlights the importance of investing in architectural facades to enhance the marketability and value of your property. Furthermore, well-designed facades can improve employee morale and productivity by creating a pleasant and inspiring work environment.

Ostro Steel Structures also offers a standing seam roof system to boost durability, longevity and weather protection to the next level. Rollformed in-house by our craftsmen using our Ostro-3000 panel profile in thicker 24ga steel, this upgraded system comprises a series of high-strength, 3” trapezoidal rib panels that are permanently and mechanically interlocked both with each other and to a system of field-installed roofing clips.

At Ostro, we understand the importance of aesthetics in creating a successful warehousing facility. Our architectural facade options offer you the flexibility to enhance the visual appeal of your warehouse while maintaining functionality and durability. We are committed to helping you create a facility that reflects your brand and meets your operational needs.
