Worldwide Material Handling

From humble beginnings to a world-class, global manufacturing leader. 

For more than 20 years, Worldwide Material Handling has been a leading producer of quality material handling and storage products. We sell warehouse racking systems globally through our distributor network around the world. Worldwide Material Handling is the world’s largest manufacturer of industrial storage and pallet rack accessory products; such as, welded wire mesh decks, collapsible containers, security carts and pallet rack repair components. We are recognized for our industrial grade, high strength and durability across all of our products and we enjoy the best reputation in the industry to deliver the best value in the business.  

Starting in the early 90′s in an old rusty barn with a dirt floor in Chicago, Worldwide distributed and installed pallet rack systems, components and services to local customers seeking high quality products delivered quickly and competitively. With generous inventory and highly skilled staff, sales grew substantially each year and new branch locations were opened around the United States. By 2007, Worldwide was one of the largest producers of wire mesh decks and containers in the world with 5 locations doing business in more than 50 countries. Today, Worldwide continues to support our network of more than 3000 dealers with the same high quality and most complete product line in the industry. 

With great products come even greater people.  

Perhaps the only thing that’s better than the products Worldwide Material Handling manufactures are the PEOPLE who make up the company. Our staff has an average of 17 years of industry experience. That is more than any company in the industry.  From a routine application to a fully custom specification to a same day delivery, no one does it better than our highly skilled and most respected staff in the business.  No one.

We understand your business.

We have learned that we must earn our customer’s business each day and with each opportunity….just like our distributors must do with their own customers. With that understanding, our best distributors have found that we become a valuable resource and partner with every opportunity.

Our culture has been built on this premise, over 20 years ago, and continues to this day.
