Adrian Steel launched its Next-Generation Shelving & Accessory product line at NTEA’s Work Truck Week 2025 in Indianapolis, Indiana. These versatile, flexible shelving units are configurable for a variety of pickup truck and van types and are designed to minimize cargo dead space and provide better durability and safety, leading to improved productivity and return on investment.

Next-Generation Shelving

Adrian Steel said its new Next-Generation Shelving offers the longest and tallest shelves in the industry, with lengths up to 144 inches. The innovative design allows for mix-and-match customization, with four end panel heights, nine shelf lengths, four-shelf depths, 12 drawer unit options, and six bin options.

Constructed from high-strength low alloy (HSLA) steel, these shelves are stronger than ever, holding an average of 50 pounds per foot compared with an average of 35 pounds per foot on current shelving.

“This marks the launch of a completely redesigned product line at Adrian Steel,” said Don DeLong, CEO. “Our new patented Next-Generation Shelving is engineered to maximize productivity for skilled trade professionals. When crews have less dead space in their vans and easier access to tools, they can minimize downtime, prevent injuries, and always have room for the right parts to complete jobs more efficiently.”

The product line includes improved accessories that maximize shelf space with drawer units, door kits, and bins for all shelf sizes. 

Additionally, the shelving units have been third-party crash tested and proven even safer than current shelving units, with up to 17 mounting points to hold units in place compared with the traditional seven mounting points.

Adrian Steel offers a limited lifetime warranty on the Next-Generation Shelving & Accessory product line.

Expansion of Product Line for Pickups

The company also announced an expansion of its line of products for pickup trucks, which was launched one year ago. 

New cargo solutions for truck storage include a new barn-door-style cap, a new 70% ExtendoBed slide-out, and all-new perimeter ladder racks and electronic locks for truck caps, to be released throughout the year. Find more details at Adrian Steel’s website.
