Pallet Flow Racking System

A pallet flow racking system means easy access and increased efficiency. These racking systems use gravity as a free power source, making them an extremely cost-effective solution that keeps your pallets, cartons, and business moving. Pallet flow systems cut labour costs up to 75% when compared to static shelf racking systems.

How the System Works:

With a pallet flow racking system, when one pallet or carton is removed from the picking station, the next one in line rolls or slides to the front on a slightly inclined rail or rollers. The next pallet or carton is automatically ready to be picked by the operator. With a first-in-first-out (FIFO) system, your inventory is easier to monitor and always within reach.

Pallet flow racking systems are a perfect option for warehouses of all sizes. They allow you to store and retrieve inventory as efficiently as possible while maximizing your floor and vertical cube space. 

Benefits:

  • Higher density storage over Selective Racking layouts.
  • Height is only restricted by the lift trucks’ maximum lift height.
  • Faster retrieval time – lift trucks are not required to travel down secondary aisles.
  • No special forklifts are required – lift trucks never enter the rack.
  • Ideal for Automatic Retrieval Systems or integration into Pick Towers and rack supported buildings.
  • Accommodates a variety of pallet sizes and types with full-width roller options.
  • Only load and unload beam and rack frames are exposed to lift truck impact.
  • Aisle frames can be reinforced for safer forklift movement.
  • Easy FIFO of SKUs by lane.
