Bespoke Flowrack Systems for Better Inventory Management
Let gravity do the work. Our modular flowrack systems automatically move products from storage to picking positions using angled roller tracks - no motors, no maintenance, just reliable rotation that saves time and reduces handling.
The Inventory Problem Most Warehouses Face
Traditional static shelving creates problems:
- Workers waste time walking deep into storage locations
- Old stock gets buried behind new deliveries
- You need wide aisles everywhere, reducing storage density
- Manual stock rotation takes time and often gets skipped
- Picking errors increase when products aren't clearly organised
Flowrack systems solve these issues by using gravity to bring products forward automatically.
How Gravity-Fed Flowracks Work
Simple physics makes these systems effective. Products are loaded at the back on gently sloped roller tracks. Gravity moves them forward to the picking face, creating automatic First In, First Out (FIFO) rotation.
When you pick the front item, the next one immediately takes its place. No sifting through stock, no reaching to the back, and no manual rotation required.
Our tube and joint construction means you can configure these systems for your exact requirements, then reconfigure them easily when needs change.
Key advantages:
- Perfect FIFO rotation happens automatically
- Higher storage density in existing space
- Faster picking with less walking
- Clear visibility of stock levels
- Easy reconfiguration without welding or construction work
- No motors or power required
How Flowracks Transform Operations
Integration Considerations
Flowracks are ideal for any warehouse fulfilling orders from stored inventory. From e-commerce fulfilment centres to distribution warehouses with SKU (stock keeping unit) requirements, our systems supply production lines efficiently.
Our team work closely with you to configure lanes for your specific requirements, adjusting dimensions for box sizes, weights, or loose merchandise.
- Roller tracks for most applications
- Specialised tracks for unique product shapes
- Speed controllers for heavier items
- Manual loading for smaller items
- Conveyor integration for automated replenishment (click here for Conveyor options)
- Customisable systems to adhere with your work processes
