Compliance helps reduce workplace accidents, prevent product loss and maintain the structural integrity of your racking system. Understanding and adhering to the Australian Standard AS 4084 is a critical step. This standard governs the design, installation, inspection and use of steel storage racking, setting the benchmark for safe warehouse operations in Australia.
