Why use Pallet Racking at All?
Pallet racking is a safe and relatively cheap way of increasing the storage capacity of a warehouse and, if designed properly, can increase the productivity and throughput of any logistics system. Purpose-designed and built pallet racking systems can be found to decrease the amount of product handling required and improve efficiency in warehousing, logistics and distribution. A properly designed pallet racking system should also keep pedestrian traffic away from dangerous forklift traffic. Pallet racking gives its users significant benefits over floor storage. Ordinary floor storage wastes the elevated space available in most warehouses, and with the current climate of high-cost per square metre of floor, pallet racking can utilise every square metre more effectively than floor storage can.
