Hardwoods
When storing Hardwoods, Stakapals heavy duty Cantilever Racking not only offers 100% selectivity but reduces the risk to staff and customers posed by bulk stacking on uneven ground which can prove to be extremely unstable.
Where there is a requirement for a dedicated pedestrian access area for hand picking, A -Frame / Vertical Racks and Timber Racks help to speed up the number of picks per hour making staff more productive whilst again minimising the risk from moving mechanical handling equipment.
Pigeon Hole Racks perform the same basic function in a horizontal configuration allows for storing long items which again ultimately means that product can be selected and hand loaded away from forklift trucks and other machinery.
Softwoods
Cantilever Racking offers Timber merchants the capacity to store any length of timber, improving stock rotation as well as ensuring an organised warehousing facility with designated areas utilising fork-lift trucks.
A -Frame / Vertical Racks are an excellent alternative storage option for hand selection of high throughput Softwood products.
Pigeon Hole Racks offer the same functionality in a horizontal configuration and compartments can be tailored to support a broad selection of small quantities of a variety of Softwood profiles for hand loading and selectivity
Carcassing
