When a company experiences a period of rapid growth and runs out of workspace, this can cause a problem. However, it is one that can be solved with a mezzanine floor.
An expanding company needs more space for a variety of uses. New office staff are recruited and need desk space, manufacturing companies need more parts and raw materials, online orders increase and shelf space is needed to store extra stock.
An expanding company is not necessarily a cash-rich company; money is spent on recruiting new customers and machinery, IT systems need updating, extra stock needs to be ordered and new employees are brought in, all of which can make it financially difficult to move premises or construct new buildings. Even if finance is available, it can take time to move to a new location.
Mezzanine flooring is a cost effective solution to create extra space in an existing building, especially because it can be constructed quickly with minimal interruption to current operations.
Mezzanine floors usually do not need planning permission, but they do need to conform to fire regulations. Once built, warehouse shelving can be easily installed and office spaces created. Mezzanine floors will have permanent staircases, but mobile warehouse staircases can be useful.
For heavy items, lifts should be installed, but mobile hydraulic lifts can be used in situations where a permanent installation is not necessary.
Before deciding to relocate your business, consider mezzanine flooring. Provided your workspace has sufficient height, mezzanine flooring can be the answer to the expanding company dilemma.
