In this competitive and global marketplace, no business can afford to lose resources because of inefficient or disorganized industrial facility. If you want to increase the profit and to stimulate the growth of your company, you should consider the importance of the shelving systems. There are many different shelving solutions on the market which can enhance your productivity and performance while reducing the storage costs. The shelving systems are used in industries where moving, handling and storing materials is usual. They are designed to be used in different working environments and offer many benefits, such as rust resistance, excellent mobility, enhanced stability, durability, space utilization, etc. No matter if you run a small or large business, you should organize your workplace in the most efficient way. Wondering how? Here are the suggested shelving solutions that can boost your performance and productivity:
Dynamic Storage Solution – These days, the dynamic storage solution is one of the most popular shelving solutions. This system has a slight slope and relies on gravity. Every pallet is loaded on the gravity lane from the entry side, which is the highest point. Thanks to the gravity force, each pallet moves from the loading point to the retrieval point which is the lowest point. Once the pallet at the retrieval point is loaded, the next pallet automatically takes its place. In this way, the dynamic storage system minimize the downtime and increase the warehouse efficiency.
Selective Pallet Racking – The selective pallet racking provides a direct access to all pallets and increase the capacity storage. The selective pallet racking is easy to install, adjust and maintain, and it is not expensive. The advantages you can get are rigidity and more strength, maximized space in your warehouse, and ability to locate, access and move pallets individually.
Narrow Aisle Racking – The narrow aisle racking is used for increasing the storage area in a typical warehouse. In fact, the narrow aisle racking is a selective racking with narrow aisles between each rack. It is specifically designed for safe and efficient load handling operations. Although it requires more maintenance than all other shelving solutions, the narrow aisle racking is still a popular choice for many business owners. However, these systems are only operated with forklifts.
Double Deep Racking – Double deep racking is one of the shelving systems that can increase the storage efficiency by storing more pallets in one place. Similar to the selective pallet racking, the double deep racking can store pallets in two rows, unlike most shelving solutions that store pallets in one. However, this storage solution requires special material (pallet) handling equipment with a sliding fork attachment or a dual pantograph.
