Push Back Pallet Racking

This is a good pallet racking option when storage space is limited and ideal for cold storage. It is a dense storage system that utilises inclined rails and rolling low friction carts. It is a system for storing multiple pallets of the same products. In one lane you can store from 2 pallets to 4 pallets deep (Although generally 2 deep is optimal). 

There is some flexibility with this type of system with pallet height options as you can vary the height of rails for upper levels (although many companies don’t do this as it complicates the posting for the fork lift truck driver. Operational posting and retrieval of pallets is from the front side, which means the last pallet in will be the first out (LIFO).

Access: Front side
Pallets are pushed back by the fork lift trucks
Supports Last in First Out (LIFO)
Allows for dense storage in smaller areas
Clear aisle of 3 to 3.4m
Quick access to stock
Ideal for sold storage
