Drive-in Racking

This system is based on the storage by accumulation principle, which enables the highest use of available space in terms of both area and height.

Drive-in racking is designed for the storage of homogenous products. It accommodates a large number of pallets for each SKU.

Advantages 

• Maximum profitability of the available space (up to 85%).
• Removal of aisles between the Racking..

Two management systems are available: the drive-in system, with only one access aisle, and the drive-through system, with access to the load from both sides of the rack.

Types of drive-in racking

Drive-in racking systems apply the LIFO (last in, first out) principle for loading and unloading. Drive-through installations are loaded and unloaded according the FIFO (first in, first out) principle. To guide the truck or pallets and to protect the installation we recommend the use of ground rails.

There are three types of drive-in racks, depending on the load and unload procedure and the accessibility:

• Single drive-in racking
• Double drive-in racking
• Drive through
