Would My Warehouse Require Shelving as Well As Racking?

Commercial shelving is an incredibly versatile and effective way of getting additional storage that does not clog up your available space in a warehouse. Many business owners do not understand the benefits this warehouse storage equipment provides or the difference it makes for both storage and staff productivity.

What is Commercial Shelving?

If you need to store small to medium-sized products within a warehouse – commercial shelving is the perfect solution. This shelving is a specialist piece of equipment that effortlessly holds hand-picked items in boxes, drums and larger cartons to keep them from getting mixed up and damaged with your larger pallet racking stock.

It is available in a wide range of heights, widths and depths and made from steel decking, mesh or chipboard – or a combination of either to suit specific warehouse requirements.

What It Stores

Some items are not practical for occupying pallet racking in your main warehouse space – but they find a more suitable home on commercial shelving. Items with odd shapes, extreme fragility or of bulkier dimensions are not always movable by forklift or conveyor belts, as well as products like batteries, tyres, office supplies and piping. These products can be securely placed on commercial shelving in a safe space all of their own.

The big advantage you have with commercial shelving comes in the versatility in storing so many different items of shape and size, giving them a space of their own so that they do not affect the general warehouse space and storage.

No matter what you store on commercial shelving, they need to be manually moved following HSE guidelines.

The Benefit of Shelving

Along with what we have already covered, commercial shelving offers a wave of advantages for your premises. One is that you can have custom designs to provide the very best storage solution to your specific needs and that the system created will be easy and fast to assemble on-site.

Commercial shelving is highly versatile and allows for immediate access to every unit load and is a great way to improve and utilise all of the available space you have on your premises.
