Safe Storage of Containers and Pallets

stow’s Open face racking is particularly suitable for storage of containers and pallets. As box containers are only supported in their four corners, a safe storage in conventional pallet racking is not possible. In Open face racking the containers or pallets are stored on depth supports, which are hooked in the side perforations of the frames.

This type of racking provides maximum height utilisation by eliminating the horizontal beams as in conventional pallet racking. The boltless height adjustment every 25 mm allows an optimised partitioning of the storage levels.

Adding some specific construction elements, such as top-ties, top-rail and run-outs, the system can be serviced automatically by AS/RS-cranes.
