The feasibility of vertical storage systems

Warehousing activities consume 10-40% of logistics costs and the most conventional of the verticalised systems the pallet rack corresponds to 30% less space occupied. Following the concept that time space handling and people are important costs in warehousing the systems prove to be functional in doing so reduced. The applicability of these systems is evident when realising their great flexibility in adapting to the different operations conducted in the storage not being restricted to only one standard regardless of the nature of the company the characteristics of the products and the arrangement of space. Thus the functionality and applicability of these systems presuppose that there is a greater profitability of the capital invested by the company in the business a fact arising from the possible reduction of storage costs and consequently of logistics costs.
