Racking SystemsWarehouse Racking
Warehouse racking systems help to organise cargo, optimise your space and manage inventory levels.
a. Budget
A racking system is an investment. As such, the best course of action is to purchase the best possible equipment within your means that can support your operations. This leads to higher productivity and optimal workflow.
Additionally, when you invest in an efficient racking system, you are able to store more goods. When your warehouse is able to store more goods, you can then accommodate for greater demands and eventually reap a better ROI.
b. Storage facility and Type of cargo
Consider the area you have to work with and the items you store. Whether it is an indoor or outdoor area will help you determine the type of rack finishing which you require. Long cargos will require a specialised rack such as cantilever racks while pallet racks are suitable for palletized items.
c. Durability and stability
Invest in a high-quality racking system that is durable and stable. Consider it a long term investment which can last longer as compared to a poor quality rack which you will have to replace in the future.
Heavy duty shelving/racking comes with deckings like plywood or metal panels and is meant for smaller sized goods that can be carried by hand. Heavy duty pallet racking is used for pallets which require specialised material handling equipment (MHE) such as forklifts and reach trucks to move.
It is the process of arranging materials and equipment in order to store, distribute and retrieve them efficiently. Warehouse layout plan Includes packing space, office space, racking layout and other determined spaces.
There is no one-size-fits-all for racking. Selective pallet racking however is the most popular choice for pallet storage. This type of pallet rack can be used for a wide variety of applications, including electronics, retail merchandise, food products as long as it fits within the chosen pallet size.
Pallet racking systems are a storage method that leverages vertical space to store products and materials. Operators typically use MHE(s) such as forklifts to place and retrieve pallets stored on the shelves.
