The benefits of flow storage racks are derived from their ability to combine flexibility with more efficient use of storage space. To understand the benefits and practical applications of flow storage, consider the various storage system configurations.

"Selective" racks are configured to provide 100 percent selectivity to every load; however, they require numerous aisles and result in low storage density.

"Drive-in," "Double-deep," and "Push back" type racks, on the other hand, can store two, three, or more loads deep. While offering greater storage density than selective racks, these racks are "last-in, first-out" type systems with reduced selectivity.

"Flow storage" type rack offers unsurpassed storage density, limited only by the size of your facility. In addition, flow storage systems offer automatic "first-in, first-out" product rotation, a vital advantage with perishable and time-sensitive products.
