What is Push-Back Racking?

Feb 06, 2024 Leave a message

Push-back racking is a storage method that allows pallets to be stored from 2 to 6 deep on either side of an aisle, giving you higher storage density than conventional forms of racking.

 

With push-back pallet racking, you can combine the density of drive-in rack while also providing single-lane selectivity.

 

Wheeled carts sit stacked at the pick aisle of each lane. A pallet is placed on the top cart, then to load the next pallet, the forklift pushes it back, exposing a cart underneath.

 

The process continues until all carts are used, with the last pallet resting on the rails. As pallets are extracted, the rear pallets automatically flow forward, producing a highly effective process.
