Choosing pallet racking for distribution centers is mainly about finding the right balance between pallet access and storage density.The best system depends on how many SKUs you handle,how quickly pallets move and what equipment is used in the warehouse.
Start With SKU Variety
If a distribution center stores many different SKUs,direct access to individual pallets is often important.
Selective pallet racking is a practical option because each pallet position can be accessed independently.This makes it easier to manage mixed inventory and changing product volumes.
If the warehouse stores fewer SKUs but several pallets of each product,higher-density systems such as double deep,drive-in or pallet shuttle racking may make better use of the available space.
Look at Pallet Flow
Storage density is only one part of the decision.
For fast-moving products,the distance between receiving,storage and shipping areas can affect daily handling efficiency.If FIFO is important,pallet flow racking can also be considered for suitable products.
Match the Rack to Your Handling Equipment
Forklift type and operating aisle requirements should be considered before finalizing the rack layout.
A system that provides more storage positions but does not work efficiently with the warehouse's existing handling equipment may not deliver the expected operational benefit.
What Information Should You Give the Supplier?
Before requesting a racking proposal,prepare:
Warehouse length,width and clear height
Pallet dimensions and weight
Number of SKUs
Required pallet positions
Daily inbound and outbound pallet volume
Forklift type and maximum lift height
This information allows the manufacturer to compare suitable racking systems and develop a layout based on the actual distribution center operation.
HLD Shelves provides customized pallet racking and high-density storage solutions based on warehouse layout,pallet specifications and storage requirements.
