Metro Shelving A Premier Brand

In May of 1956, Metro’s founder Louis Maslow, a self-educated engineer and noted wire mechanic, developed the first commercially successful open wire shelving for the foodservice industry. Through the years, Metro has acquired over 200 patents in the shelving and storage world and has become the leading name in commercial and residential shelving. With a global manufacturing and distribution footprint that enables us to serve our customers all over the world, Metro continues to have an eye towards the future, continuing to innovate and design the next generation of storage solutions.

Our brand name is synonymous with quality, strength, and innovation, and we are constantly working to improve our products and streamline our service even further.

We understand that no two environments are exactly alike, which is why we provide products that are versatile and customizable in nearly every way.

Putting Space to Work

At Metro, “We put space to work.” This is crucial to what we do. Shelving, unlike, any other form of storage is present in nearly all settings. While you may not realize it at a glance, it’s probable that every part of your home and business has at least some form of shelving in it. At Metro, we want to help you optimize this space and make it work for you. In restaurants, this means creating more prep space for cooks and sous chefs, easier to find utensils, cleaner food storage areas, and more. In hospitals, this means nurses and doctors who are better able to find the life-saving medications, utensils, tools, and other materials they need to do their jobs. And even in your home, Metro wants to make your life easier and more care-free. You’d think that the key to this would be the newest piece of technology, a computer, or a software program, but the fact is that the proper shelving can go a long way in making your life run smoother.
