Shelving units are equipment used in the warehousing sector. The design of individual models depends on their intended use, throughput and level of automation.
In terms of functionality, models differ in performance, accuracy, processing capacity and energy consumption. Ease of maintenance and the availability of on-site service also play an important role in the selection process.
Well-known brands include Jungheinrich, SSI Schäfer, Mecalux and Stow. Models from other specialist manufacturers are also regularly available.
Shelving systems are used in warehouses, distribution centres and e-commerce logistics. Typical users include both medium-sized specialist firms and large industrial companies with their own machinery. Key factors in the selection process are application requirements, existing infrastructure, investment budgets and long-term operating costs.
