Selective Racking Overview

Selective pallet rack is a popular storage system found in warehouses and distribution centers. Its purpose is to organize and retrieve palletized goods efficiently. The term "selective" is used because it enables easy access to each pallet individually. This makes it ideal for situations where there are many different products and the stock needs to be rotated frequently.

A selective pallet rack system is a very flexible kind of storage rack design. They allow easy access to each pallet and makes the best use of the vertical space available. Selective racks can be set up either in single rows or arranged with the back of one row touching the back of another. Each space in the rack can be used to store a single item or SKU, which allows for mixing different products.

Selective racks use a single-deep design, which means they require an aisle to access each individual pallet. As a result, the amount of items that can be stored in a given space is relatively low.

Widely used due to its versatility, accessibility, and adaptability to changing storage needs selective pallet rack is suitable for applications where inventory turnover is high, and a wide range of products needs to be stored and accessed efficiently.
