19 Feb 2026 CW Team

The Storage Solutions business of Godrej Enterprises Group has delivered one of India’s most advanced Automated Racking System (ARS) rack-clad warehouses for a leading pharmaceutical company.

Rising 120 ft (36 m), the high-bay automated facility integrates structural racking, automation and cladding into a single system. Built within a footprint of 11,490 sq ft, it houses 6,316 pallet positions, enabling high-density, fully automated storage and retrieval with minimal manual intervention. The system is designed to enhance inventory accuracy, throughput, traceability and operational reliability for pharmaceutical operations.

The structure measures 216 ft (66 m) in length and 56 ft (17 m) in width, maximising vertical capacity while reducing additional land and construction requirements. Execution followed a three-stage process covering rack assembly, precision installation and final cladding to create a standalone automated warehouse.

“This project is a powerful demonstration of what Indian engineering and manufacturing excellence can achieve when innovation is guided by purpose. At Godrej Enterprises Group, we see infrastructure not just as a commercial deliverable but as a contribution to the nation’s progress. This first/one-of-its-kind ARS Rack-Clad Warehouse enables scale, efficiency, and reliability, all within a compact footprint, and reflects our commitment to building future-ready solutions for industries that are vital to India’s economic growth,” said Vikas Choudaha, Business Head – Storage Solutions.

The development aligns with projected growth in India’s pharmaceutical sector and the increasing need for advanced industrial infrastructure.
