Adrian Steel Introduces Next-Generation Shelving Products

Adrian Steel, a leader in cargo management solutions for commercial vehicles, has officially launched its Next-Generation Shelving product line during NTEA's Work Truck Week 2025 in Indianapolis. This innovative shelving system is remarkably versatile, designed to cater to a variety of commercial vans and pickup trucks, ultimately aimed at increasing productivity and maximizing cargo efficiency.

Enhanced Design Features

The newly launched shelving system is lauded for its superior design, offering the longest and tallest shelves in the market, reaching lengths up to 144 inches. Its customizable configuration allows users to adjust the shelving to their specific needs with various end panel heights, shelf lengths, and depths, providing a tailored approach that ensures optimized use of space within vehicles. The shelves can support an impressive average of 50 pounds per foot, showcasing a strength increase over previous versions, which typically handled 35 pounds per foot.

Commenting on this groundbreaking product, CEO Don DeLong stated, "The Next-Generation Shelving is engineered to maximize productivity for skilled trade professionals. It minimizes cargo dead space and facilitates easier access to essential tools, contributing to reduced downtime and enhanced efficiency."

Safety and Durability

In addition to its size and strength, Adrian Steel’s revamped shelving units have undergone third-party crash testing, demonstrating improved safety features compared to former models. The units now include up to 17 mounting points, a significant upgrade from the conventional seven, providing better stability and security during transit. These safety enhancements are critical for users who transport valuable equipment and tools daily. Moreover, Adrian Steel offers a limited lifetime warranty on their Next-Generation Shelving Accessory product line, underscoring their commitment to quality and durability.

Accessory Innovations

The product range goes beyond shelving alone, including an array of accessories designed to maximize storage solutions. Features like drawer units, door kits, and bins are now standard to further enhance organization and efficiency. This ensures that no matter the size or type of vehicle, trade professionals have access to customized solutions that align perfectly with their operational requirements.

Expansion of Truck Product Line

In tandem with the shelving launch, Adrian Steel is expanding its diverse product offerings for pickup trucks. This includes introducing a barn-door-style cap, a new 70 percent Extendobed slide-out solution, perimeter ladder racks, and electronic locking mechanisms for truck caps—scheduled for release over the coming year. This expansion signifies Adrian Steel’s ongoing commitment to innovation within the commercial vehicle accessories market.
