Pallet Racking

What is pallet racking?

Pallets are notoriously hard to store, often disrupting smooth and efficient warehouse operations. Pallet racking is an ideal space-saving solution for storing and organising loaded pallets, making use of vertical space that would otherwise be wasted.

How does pallet racking work?

Pallet racking is essentially like heavy-duty shelving, designed for heavy pallets in busy warehouses. Pallets are typically loaded by forklift, and can be stored neatly in rows and on multiple vertical levels.

What is the benefit of using pallet racking?

The primary benefit of pallet racking is the use of vertical space. Pallets can be stored two, three or four levels high, so the space within the warehouse can be used more efficiently. Pallet racking also allows better organisation of and access to goods.

What pallet racking is in the First Mats range?

Our pallet racking range includes:

• All-in-one systems, consisting of frames, beams, locking pins, levelling shims and floor fixings
• Timber or wire mesh decking panels to optimise the racking
• Row spacers to ensure that rows of racking are evenly and consistently spaced
• Fork spacers to allow non-palletised good to be stored with clearance for forklift trucks to load and unload
• Pallet support bars to give added strength for heavier pallets or support for non-standard sized or weakened pallets
• Separate frames and beams as well as other equipment for building your own pallet racking system to suit your requirements

Most of our racking equipment is available to fit UK standard pallet sizes (900mm) or Euro standard sizes (1100mm), so be sure to select the right system or equipment for your needs.
