A durable structure to support the flow lanes. Our wide selection of Pallet Rack includes many brands of varying constructions such as roll formed, tubular, structural C-channel and stainless steel.
A knowledgeable system integrator, with a working knowledge of how to combine your flow rack system with other elements of your storage facility, such as Pick Modules, Push-Back Racks and more. Our depth of experience allows us to see the big picture.

For certain applications, Pallet Flow Systems can be the most efficient and economical choice for the job. Here are some of the considerations:

With traditional pallet rack, 50% to 60% of floor space must be dedicated to aisles to access storage positions. Pallet Flow Rack will increase space utilization in your existing structure, helping defer or avoid the costs of building and maintaining new structures. Huge cost advantages can be realized that will directly affect your bottom line and help give your company a competetive advantage. Travel time between picks is also greatly reduced with Pallet Flow Rack. Expect savings from reduced labor costs and reduced equipment maintenance.


Roller / Brake Combination Systems handle bulky products and long loads smoothly.


High Rise Pallet Flow Systems are avialable in Wheel Rail or Roller configurations.



Pallet Flow systems can be installed adjacent to full roller lanes for maximum flexibilty.

Conventional Static Rack / Shelf Storage
	Pallet Storage is 3 levels high, Tote / Carton Storage is 5 levels high. Disadvantages: High labor cost - Frequent product damage - Slow operation - Inefficient inventory control - Large space requirements - Traffic congestion - Limited access - Poor space utilization - Large equipment investment.

	Pallet Storage is 3 levels high, Tote / Carton Storage is 5 levels high. Space Savings: In the typical comparison above and at left, the Flo-Guide Storage System offers comparable capacity in less than half the floor space, doubling the potential for capacity in an existing area, or freeing up valuable floor space for production or other activities. Time & Labor Savings: Restricting loading and unloading to only two areas (front and back) dramatically reduces the time it takes to place and pick products. As a result, workers increase their individual output, have less fatigue, and boost overall productivity. Ideal for Just-In-Time picking operations. Significant labor savings of up to 75% also allow for effective redistribution of human resources to other areas. Equipment & Energy Savings: With fewer square feet to light, heat or air condition, energy costs are lowered. With fewer fork trucks to purchase or lease, equipment operating and maintenance costs are also lowered. Worker efficiency is raised, since less time and effort is required to locate and pick pallets, cartons or totes. Advantages: Lower labor costs - Reduced energy costs - Less product damage - Increased throughput - Better inventory control - Less floor space required for storage - First-In / First-Out and First-In Last-Out friendly - Reduced forklift traffic - Increased safety - Ergonomic design.
