An Industry Standard

Everything In Its Place

Pallet rack is a warehouse storage system that uses shelves or racks to store goods, with pallets placed on these shelves. This system is characterized by fixed racks, where pallets remain in place once deposited. There are several styles of racks, the most common being single-depth racking. With single-depth racking, pallets are stored on a single level and are accessible from one side. In double-depth racking, pallets are stored on two levels, with access to both levels from one side. Drive-In/Drive-Thru racking stores pallets in a tunnel-like structure, allowing access from both ends. This configuration maximizes storage efficiency and simplifies the retrieval process.

Pallet rack enhances vertical space utilization, maximizing storage capacity. It can be configured to fit specific layouts and storage requirements, with adjustable beams and uprights designed to accommodate different sizes and types of pallets.

The benefits of pallet racks include:

High Selectivity: Allows for easy access to specific pallets, reducing search times and increasing productivity
Flexibility: Highly modular and can be customized to fit various warehouse layouts and product sizes
Cost-Effective: Installation costs are significantly lower with minimal downtime
Simple Maintenance: Fewer moving parts means less maintenance and repair requirements for the longevity of your storage

Pallet rack is ideal for storing a wide range of products, including packaged goods and materials while improving overall accessibility. A simplified unloading process significantly reduces labor costs and increases productivity. They are also effective for consolidating inventory from multiple locations or suppliers. Moreover, pallet racks can be a temporary solution for overflow or seasonal inventory. When choosing the right system for your facility, it’s important to consider the following factors to meet your specific storage and operational needs such as:
