Logistics Storage Details

Logistics storage and shelving systems are integral across various industries, each with its unique set of needs and considerations. In retail and e-commerce, versatile and scalable shelving is essential to accommodate a diverse product range and rapidly fluctuating inventory levels.

The manufacturing sector requires robust systems for storing raw materials and finished products, often with custom specifications for different item sizes and weights. The pharmaceutical industry, dealing with sensitive items, prioritises controlled environments like cold storage. Food and beverage sectors need solutions that ensure freshness and compliance with health standards, often involving temperature-regulated storage. For the automotive industry, the focus is on accommodating a wide array of parts, while construction and building materials demand sturdy shelving for heavy items. Third-party logistics providers seek adaptable storage systems to manage various clients’ products. In contrast, aerospace, defence, chemicals and hazardous materials sectors require secure, specialised storage to handle high-value or dangerous items safely. Lastly, the agriculture and farming industry needs large, durable storage solutions for equipment and supplies.

Each industry’s distinct requirements underscore the importance of custom, industry-specific logistics shelving and storage solutions in maintaining efficient and safe operations. Depending on your industry and business’s requirements one of our racking systems will be ideal for your operations and our expert team will be happy to offer support and advice to ensure you get the perfect solution for your needs. For logistics storage, we recommend one of the systems below.

Longspan Shelving

This shelving system utilises a wide range of frame and beam sizes, making it ideal for a vast array of products and sectors. Longspan shelving allows us to create and install a customised, flexible solution that meets your business needs perfectly. It is specially designed to suit commercial and industrial warehouses where long, unrestricted shelving areas are required for big, heavy and bulky items and it is also equally suitable for storing products in small and varying quantities with split turnovers.

Push Back Pallet Racking

Push back pallet racking gives operators high-speed access to safe, high-density storage. It is one of the most space and time-efficient pallet systems and uses gravity-fed assembly in which pallets are placed on wheeled carriers and ‘pushed back’ along inclined steel guide channels to use the full depth of the racking. The fast access push back pallet racking provides is good for stock with a predictable turnover and works well with bulk or cold storage, where the density of product storage helps make keeping products cold more energy efficient. Push back pallet racking generally also offers reduced product damage compared to simpler systems.

Mobile Pallet Racking

This racking is mounted on motorised bases meaning the racks can move to create or remove space, increasing storage capacity and saving up to 40% of space required by standard pallet racking. This makes mobile pallet racking ideal for large and bulky items and they can be operated manually, by remote control or automated by computer saving on labour costs and also creating a safer warehouse environment.
