Pallet & Industrial Racking Systems
(Pallet & Industrial Racking Systems)
Nine systems for pallets, long and heavy loads – from standard back-to-back racking to high-density storage and mezzanine structures. We help you choose the right system for your goods, space and operation.
Systems in this category
Back-to-Back Racking Systems
Selective pallet rackingTwo rows of racking joined back to back, with direct access to every pallet.
Cantilever Racking Systems
Long and bulky loadsFor long and bulky loads: pipes, profiles, panels and timber.
Carton Flow Racking Systems
Gravity carton pickingCartons travel on roller tracks to the picking face (FIFO).
Clad Rack Systems
Rack-supported buildingA racking structure that also carries the roof and cladding of the building.
Double Deep Racking Systems
Higher-density pallet rackingTwo pallets deep on each side of the aisle – fewer aisles, more locations.
Drive-In Racking Systems
High-density, LIFOForklifts drive into the rack lanes – compact storage of uniform products.
Mezzanine Racking Systems
Additional floor levelAn additional floor level inside the existing building, without extending it.
Pallet Flow Racking Systems (FIFO)
Gravity pallet flow, FIFOPallets move by gravity from the loading side to the picking side.
VNA Racking Systems
Very narrow aisle rackingNarrow aisles and specialised trucks – more pallet positions on the same floor area.
Which pallet system suits your warehouse?
An overview of the differences between the most common pallet systems. The final choice depends on an analysis of your warehouse.
| System | Pallet access | Storage density | Retrieval order | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Back-to-Back Racking Systems | Direct, every pallet | Standard | Any order | Many different SKUs |
| Double Deep Racking Systems | Front pallet direct, second behind it | Higher | LIFO per lane | SKUs with two or more pallets |
| VNA Racking Systems | Direct, with a VNA truck | Higher (narrow aisles) | Any order | High-bay stores with many SKUs |
| Drive-In Racking Systems | Lane access, forklift drives in | High | LIFO | Many pallets of the same SKU |
| Pallet Flow Racking Systems (FIFO) | Lane access, gravity flow | High | FIFO | Products with a shelf life |

Frequently asked questions
Which racking system is best for my warehouse?
It depends on the number of SKUs, pallets per SKU, stock turnover, building height and forklifts. After an analysis we propose one system or a combination.
Can different systems be combined in one warehouse?
Yes. Back-to-back racking for a wide product range is often combined with drive-in or pallet flow racking for fast movers, and a mezzanine for small items.
How is the load capacity of racking determined?
Load capacity is determined by the project – based on the weight and size of the loads, number of levels, rack height and floor condition. Values are stated in the quotation and design documents.
