When it comes to optimizing your warehouse’s storage capacity, high-density storage systems are a game-changer. And when you’re looking for cost-effective solutions, used pallet racking becomes an attractive option. In this blog post, we’ll explore the different styles and benefits of pallet racking, and delve into the advantages and cost savings of buying used pallet racking from Ziglift Material Handling.

Understanding Pallet Racking Styles

Pallet racking is a versatile storage system that allows for efficient use of space by enabling goods to be stored off the ground in horizontal rows. There are several types/styles of pallet racking, each tailored to specific requirements and preferences.

• Selective Pallet Racking: This is the most common type of pallet racking. It is ideal for warehouses that store varied product types and require easy access to each pallet. Selective racking allows individual pallets to be stored and picked directly without the need to move others.
• Drive-In Pallet Racking: For warehouses that need high-density storage, drive-in racking is a suitable choice. It allows forklifts to enter the rack structure to load and retrieve pallets. Drive-in racks are known for their space-saving ability and are cost-effective compared to selective racking.
• Push Back Pallet Racking: This style offers last-in-first-out (LIFO) storage, making it suitable for storing products with expiration dates or those that require staging. Push back racking operates on a conveyor system that utilizes gravity to move pallets in and out of position. It maximizes storage capacity while ensuring efficient picking operations.
