While small goods racking offers several advantages for organizing a large number of smaller items, it also presents some challenges:
- Wasted space: Small items can leave gaps on shelves, reducing storage efficiency, especially if they are irregularly shaped.
- Double stacking: While increasing density, it can create instability and make lower items harder to access.
- Accessibility: Tightly packed shelves can limit easy access, particularly to items stored further in the rack.
- Labelling: Clear labelling is crucial for managing small items, but limited shelf space can make it difficult.
By tackling these challenges, you can enhance the performance of your small goods racking system for more efficient storage, picking, and inventory management.
