Shipping Racks
In the world of material handling and storage, shipping racks are a key component to moving and organizing goods, especially those going to distribution. These specialized racks are designed to streamline operations from storage to dispatch and product flow in all industrial environments. As part of industrial shipping & storage racks, they help with inventory management and faster processing times for outgoing shipments. Our shipping racks offerings focus on practical solutions for tough environments.
Currently featured in our shipping racks are Vestil Carton Flow Racks. These systems are designed to move items through a designated flow, perfect for high-volume order picking and staging. The principle behind a carton flow rack is to allow products to move by gravity from the loading side to the picking side, so the oldest inventory is always accessible first. This "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) system is great for perishable goods or items with expiration dates and for rotating general stock.
A great example of this is the Vestil FLOW-4-5 Carton Flow Rack with 5 Levels - 96"W. This model has 5 levels, plenty of vertical space to organize many items. 96" wide, it has a lot of horizontal space to fit many cartons, bins or boxes. These steel shipping racks are built to withstand continuous industrial use, are stable and durable for moving goods. Their rugged construction means long-term performance in active warehouses and distribution centers.
These are key to setting up a shipping box storage rack to organize and retrieve packaged products before they ship. Whether you need to organize items in a shipping container racks system or optimize a staging area, these industrial shipping racks are the foundation for efficient operations. They help prepare goods for transit, for smoother logistics and faster throughput. The design of these ship racks makes for a more streamlined packing and loading process. They are a must-have for any facility that practices methodical material handling and shipping readiness.
