Push-back pallet racking is a high-density storage solution that allows multiple pallets to be stored in a single lane on inclined rails. When a new pallet is loaded, it pushes the previous pallet back, and when unloading, the pallets automatically slide forward using gravity. This last-in, first-out (LIFO) system is ideal for warehouses with medium turnover rates and facilities that need to store large quantities of the same SKU.
Increased Storage Density: Push-back racking increases storage capacity by allowing up to 2-6 pallets deep per lane, maximizing the use of horizontal space with fewer aisles.
Efficient LIFO Inventory Management: This system is best suited for last-in, first-out inventory management, making it ideal for bulk storage of non-perishable goods or products with longer shelf lives.
Quick Access and Loading: Since forklifts load and unload from a single side, push-back racking saves time by reducing the distance operators need to travel. The system is highly efficient for high-density storage of the same SKU.
Gravity-Assisted Unloading: When a pallet is removed from the front, gravity slides the remaining pallets forward, providing easy and quick access without needing forklifts to enter the rack.
Minimized Product Damage: Push-back racks keep forklifts out of storage lanes, reducing the risk of collisions with racks or stored items. The sturdy design also provides stability for high stacking.
Flexible Storage Solution: Push-back racking accommodates various pallet sizes and weights, making it adaptable to different storage needs and allowing a range of items to be stored within each lane.
