SOFTWOODS AND HARDWOODS
Stakapal manufacture a variety of storage alternatives for Softwood and Hardwood products which includes Cantilever Racking, Vertical Storage Racking and Pigeon Hole Racking.
Visual Merchandising Options
- Hardwood Racking and Softwood Racking offers total flexibility for storing varying lengths of product. Stakapal’s Cantilever Racking ensures 100% selectivity as well as providing effective storage and display opportunities
- A-Frame Racking/Vertical Racks are an excellent alternative storage method maximising the available floor area for high throughput products
- Pigeon Hole Storage provides the capacity to tailor separate compartments for a wide range of relatively small volumes of differing stock profiles. This means a range of Softwood and Hardwood including Mouldings and Profiles can be stored at any one time
Site Safety Improvements
- Timber stored on Cantilever Racking reduces the risk to staff and customers posed by bulk stacking which can be unstable particularly on uneven ground
- Use of Vertical Storage Racking /A-Frame Racking allows for a dedicated pedestrian access environment which in turn minimises the risk from moving mechanical handling equipment
- Similarly, the horizontal configuration of Pigeon Hole Storage normally means that product is selected and hand loaded away from forklift trucks and other machinery
- Aisle discipline required for product access reduces risk of workplace transport incidents
Bottom Line Benefits
- Cantilever Racking reduces damage to stock from repetitive handling from mechanical handling equipment when bulk stacking is used
- Selectivity is much quicker increasing the number of picks per hour making staff more productive
- Stock control is easier to carry out reducing overstocking
- Stock rotation is improved with older stock sold before becoming obsolete or damaged
