At GSB, we take pride in helping companies build smarter, more sustainable storage solutions. Our recent project with Octopus Energy is a perfect example — supplying and installing 140 bays of used AR pallet racking across two of their UK depots.
The goal? Create a cost-effective, durable storage system that supports Octopus Energy’s rapid growth, while maximising space and aligning with their sustainability values.
What We Delivered
To meet Octopus Energy’s operational needs across two locations, we provided:
• 140 bays of high-quality used AR pallet racking
• Bespoke double-deep timber decking
• Full delivery and installation at both depots
This tailored setup offered flexibility for bulk pallet storage while keeping materials secure, organised and accessible.
Why Used Pallet Racking?
By choosing used pallet racking, Octopus Energy was able to:
• Cut project costs without compromising on quality
• Reduce lead times with ready-to-go stock
• Avoid the environmental impact of buying new — keeping reusable materials in circulation
It’s a great example of how businesses can meet operational goals and sustainability targets through smart procurement.
Custom Decking for Added Versatility
The installation also included double-deep timber decking, custom-made to support Octopus Energy’s specific stock profiles and handling needs. This gave them a strong, reliable surface that could safely store a range of non-standard or mixed-size items.

Whether you’re expanding, relocating or simply need more efficient use of your warehouse space, GSB can help.
