What is Vertical Storage Racking?
Vertical Storage Racking, which is also referred to as A-Frame Racking is ideal for storing heavy duty items such as timber and metal – or other items such as plastic because it maximises product selectivity and uses minimal floor space.
S.E.M.CO’s Vertical Storage Racking offers a cost-effective method of presenting and storing long lengths of product in a vertical format.
How Does A Vertical Storage System Work?
The handloaded nature of the Vertical Storage Racking system allows use of narrow aisles. This minimises the floor space required whilst maximising product selectivity and is therefore ideal for individual product display. The compartments can be quickly and easily altered to accommodate changing stock profiles.
