About Us

Chiltern Storage Systems Ltd are independent distributors and installers of storage equipment products, and we were established as a limited company in Jan 2001.

The company’s core business function is to supply our customers with a range of quality storage equipment products, combined with a high level of service, right through from initial consultation to completed installation.

Being an independent distributor, we are not tied down to having to sell any particular manufacturers brand or product. We quote to supply the storage equipment products that best suit your requirement and budget; we do not try to make your needs fit the one type of product we have to sell.

We are an extremely competitive supplier, and our pricing reflects our desire to build solid business relationships with our customers for years to come. We have distributor agreements with most of the major UK and European racking manufacturers, and we can pass on considerable distributor discounts to our clients, especially on large, single site installations.

Where storage requirements are small and simple, we can also supply secondhand pallet racking and shelving components, from stock held at our warehouse at Pitstone, nr Tring. Although savings can be made by purchasing a secondhand racking or shelving system, larger and more complex installations often require a bespoke solution, which may not be available to purchase secondhand. Cost savings yielded by purchasing secondhand systems do tend to diminish with larger projects.

We have over 18 years experience in the design and supply of storage equipment products and projects, from office archive shelving through to complete warehousing operations, and over 12 years direct, hands on experience with the installation of all storage equipment systems.

Our installation team is employed directly by CSS Ltd (rather than being sub-contracted), and led by a SEIRS (Storage Equipment Installers Registration Scheme) qualified supervisor. You can rest assured that any work completed at your premises by Chiltern Storage Systems Ltd, will be done with the utmost courtesy, that your installation will be built to the highest levels of safety and that we will strive to complete the installation within any agreed time frame, so as to cause minimum disruption to your day to day operations.

Chiltern Storage Systems Ltd will happily visit your premises to discuss your storage equipment requirements. We will survey the proposed storage area and CAD design the best solution to suit your particular needs. Any order placed with CSS Ltd gives you the reassurance that you will be provided with the following:

• Value – We will supply the most cost effective materials to meet your exact needs. Our advice and design experience can save you time and money.
