Push Back Rack

Each level in a Push Back system holds a series of nested rolling carts which operate in a lane that slopes upwards away from the pick face. This rack acquired its name because the lift truck operator lines up in front of the first pallet and pushes against it, causing the first pallet to roll away from the pick face and expose the next cart. All carts are interlocked to prevent jamming and product damage.

Push Back Rack allows you to store multiple SKUs on different lane levels, enabling easy access. Combined with proper warehouse management, you can maintain First In First Out (FIFO) by emptying the oldest lanes first.

At Redirack, safety and stability are always top priorities. Because this type of rack deals with dynamic loads, Redirack takes care to ensure that the system is more robust than if static pallets were being used. Further, it is important to store correct cross-sections of SKUs when using a Push Back system - ask us for help in reviewing your slotting plans and to explain our "Rule of Three".
