Industrial heavy duty racking is vital to ensure you can safely store heavier items, such as products used in construction work like bricks, cement and steel.

The size, shape, scale and efficiency of modern stockrooms and warehouses have been shaped by the evolution of three main elements: shelving, pallet storage and forklift trucks. All three of these elements, as well as the containerisation of the supply chain, meant that by the 1960s logistics, warehouse storage and stockroom shelving had entered the […]

Getting the most out of the space available in a warehouse is essential so that businesses can stock as much as they can without having to upgrade to a bigger storage unit.  When it comes to choosing the right products to use in the warehouse so that as much can be stored there as possible, […]

In most large supermarkets and logistics centres, stockroom shelving is designed around the pallet, with products stored efficiently and carefully around its square surface area. It is difficult to find any logistics system that does not rely on pallets as a way to easily transport goods via forklift to and from racking systems, but whilst […]

A fast-moving warehouse filled with heavily laden industrial storage shelves needs redundancies to avoid running on extremely narrow and dangerous margins.

Modern industrial storage shelves are designed either explicitly or with the capability to store palletised inventory, but how did pallets become the standard?

Organic fulfilment centres are subject to strict rules surrounding materials, separation, hygiene and record keeping, and racking shelves are critical to this.

Most modern industrial storage shelves are made using a robust slotted angle metal design, pioneered by an engineer and reminiscent of a popular children’s toy.

The best warehouses are not the biggest, but the ones that maximise the space they have through the use of efficient layouts, storage racking and workflows.

It is essential to implement safety measures for warehouse staff, so they can minimise their risk of injury when working with longspan shelving and forklifts.
