Maximize warehouse efficiency with gravity pallet racks. Smooth LIFO and FIFO pallet flow, fast retrieval, space-saving design, and high-capacity roller flow racking for industrial storage.

Gravity pallet racks are innovative pallet racking systems equipped with roller tracks that use gravitational force to move stored units to the first available position. This system enables smooth and efficient pallet flow, increasing warehouse efficiency by up to 80% compared to traditional pallet racks. Gravity racks are ideal for operations where speed, efficiency, and space optimization are essential.

Loading Methods in Gravity Racks

LIFO (Last In, First Out)
In this method, pallets are retrieved in the reverse order of storage. Implemented in Push Back racks, each new pallet pushes the previous one, which moves forward under its own weight during retrieval. Suitable for 5–6 pallets per lane, depending on pallet weight.

FIFO (First In, First Out)
Pallets are retrieved in the same order they were stored. This method uses classic gravity flow racks, where pallets are loaded from one side and roll to the opposite end for picking. Ideal for first-in, first-out stock rotation.

Key Features and Specifications of Gravity Pallet Racks

Increased ceiling height
Higher ceilings are required to allow the proper slope of roller tracks for optimal pallet movement.

Track termination options
Roller tracks can terminate within the rack system or directly on the floor.

Pallet suitability
Not all pallet types are compatible with gravity racks. Selection must match pallet dimensions and weight.

Pallet transport options
Supports longitudinal or transverse pallet flow, with transverse being more complex and costly.

Rack operation
Typically operated using forklifts with tilting forks for efficient pallet handling.

Manual cart adaptation
Tracks can be customized for manual pallet trucks on the floor, enabling flexible picking.

Integration with other systems
Gravity racks can be combined with pallet racks, mezzanines, and other systems to create efficient picking stations.

Lane length limitations
Channel length is limited by slope and ceiling height, ensuring smooth pallet flow.

Gravity pallet racks are the perfect solution for fast, efficient, and organized storage, minimizing unnecessary movements and maximizing space utilization. They are ideal for warehouses requiring controlled inventory flow, supporting both LIFO and FIFO operations.
