AR Racking D-CARB
What is AR Racking D-CARB?
AR Racking D-CARB. Storage solutions with a lower carbon footprint for a more sustainable future.
As industries continue to move towards decarbonisation, the decisions businesses make are becoming increasingly important. Companies are no longer assessed solely on what they produce, but also on the methods and materials involved. Sustainability is now a strategic consideration, with material selection playing a key role in supporting the transition towards a more responsible industrial sector.
At AR Racking, we have spent years working to minimise the environmental impact of our operations and storage solutions, helping to support a more sustainable supply chain.
Building on this commitment, we provide our customers with AR Racking D-CARB, a sustainable alternative available across our entire range of storage systems. This option helps reduce the carbon footprint associated with the internally manufactured structural steel used in each project, through the provision of CO2e emissions reduction certificates.
Through AR Racking D-CARB, we support businesses in achieving their decarbonisation objectives while maintaining the performance standards their operations demand. We believe sustainability should complement performance rather than compete with it. This alternative requires no changes to the original design or structural calculations, ensuring that the storage system retains its functionality and technical performance.
AR Racking D-CARB makes it possible to integrate environmental considerations into industrial storage projects, lowering the carbon footprint associated with storage systems while delivering added value to facilities focused on both operational efficiency and sustainability. The emissions savings linked to these CO2e reduction certificates are independently audited.
Storage systems incorporating AR Racking D-CARB are supplied with a project-specific certificate specifying the tonnes of steel associated with the reduction in CO2e emissions, together with the total CO2e emissions savings allocated to the project compared with conventional steel. This verified information can serve as supporting evidence for corporate sustainability reporting and carbon footprint assessments.
At AR Racking, we recognise that today’s decisions influence tomorrow’s opportunities. With AR Racking D-CARB, we continue to encourage a more responsible approach to developing industrial storage solutions, bringing together innovation, reliability and environmental commitment to meet the needs of an evolving industry.

Our commitment to a more sustainable future
At AR Racking, sustainability is embedded in our strategy and in the way we approach long-term growth. Through the Living Sustainability Project and our commitment to the United Nations Global Compact, we promote specific initiatives across the economic, social and environmental dimensions.
This commitment is reflected in measures such as ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certification, the use of electricity backed by a Guarantee of Origin, carbon footprint measurement, circular economy initiatives and the use of low-emission steel. AR Racking D-CARB strengthens this approach and represents another step towards more responsible storage solutions with a lower environmental impact.
