Planning for Q2? Add Industrial Space Without Disrupting Production

Racking inside a Spaciotempo temporary structure for storage

As Q2 approaches, operations teams across the UK face the same challenge: how to increase capacity without slowing production, overcomplicating logistics, or committing to long-term construction projects.

At Spaciotempo, we work with manufacturers, distributors and logistics providers who need to move quickly. When it comes to facilitating seasonal demand or large contracts, additional space is often the missing piece, but disruption simply isn’t an option.

The good news? It doesn’t have to be.

Why Temporary Buildings Make Sense for Q2

If your business is planning ahead for Q2, you may be considering your storage options. So why choose a temporary structure over a permanent building or off-site storage?

With full flexibility and a quick turnaround from order to installation, temporary structures can be installed in weeks, not months, and can remain in place for short or long-term use.

Furthermore, when you keep all your operations onsite, it allows you to have full control of your processes. While external warehousing can solve short-term overflow, it often increases costs due to complex logistics, as well as reducing visibility of stock and potentially causing delays when retrieving stock across multiple sites.

Bringing stock back on-site restores control, and that’s where temporary warehousing makes a measurable difference.

The Cost of Doing Nothing

When it comes to implementing plans for Q2, don’t let bottlenecks in your storage operations become a limiting factor when taking on new business. When warehouse space is stretched beyond its limits, inefficiencies begin to show. Production lines wait for materials that are stored off-site, and what appears manageable quickly becomes a daily operational drag.

This can have a considerable financial impact on your business as external storage costs accumulate month after month. Additional transport movements eat into profit margin. Perhaps most critically, businesses may find themselves unable to accept new contracts or scale output at the pace demand requires. Q2 demand peaks rarely wait for construction timelines. If additional space is only considered once pressure becomes acute, businesses may find themselves reacting rather than leading.

Increasing on-site capacity for our customers

When Global Chair, a leading UK wholesale distributor supplying office chair parts, needed to increase storage capacity, they were heavily reliant on off-site external storage. In fact, they were housing nearly as many pallets externally as they were at their main site.

This created logistical inefficiencies and limited visibility over stock. They needed to quickly expand their storage capacity without disrupting day to day operations.

Spaciotempo designed and installed a temporary warehouse that added capacity for 1,500 pallets directly on-site. The structure was integrated seamlessly into their existing operations, allowing them to consolidate stock and streamline distribution without interrupting production.

The result? Greater efficiency, reduced transport movements, and full control over inventory.

“Having this 1,500-pallet unit on-site allows us to have full control. It’s worked extremely well for us. The Spaciotempo team were organised, hands-on, and delivered exactly what they promised. It does what it says on the tin.” – Ed Yeldham, Finance Director at Global Chair Components.

For Global Chair, the additional space didn’t just solve a storage problem — it strengthened their entire supply chain.
