A Picking Tower is a rack supported tiered storage structure that is designed to meet three key goals – increasing picking efficiency and maximising storage capacity. They are also often a much more cost effective storage option, especially when compared to mezzanine floors, extending warehouse space or moving to new premises.
Pick Towers are high density storage and picking solutions that give you the flexibility to meet the current and future demands of the e-tail sector. They achieve an impressive level of increased storage capacity, by using the available height of the e-fulfilment centre or warehouse. This can range from a one level solution, to up to five additional levels, utilising the full height capacity of the building.
Picking Towers can potentially increase storage capacity by up to 300% in the same footprint, or could reduce a new build by up to 75% in size.
Efficiency in terms of delivery speed and order turnaround, is key in gaining an advantage in crowded e-tail markets. That’s why our Picking Towers are designed around the specific needs of your business, and characteristics of the items in your product range, whether that’s a single product line, a range of goods, or thousands of SKU numbers.
As well as finding a storage solution that lets you organise goods systematically, to streamline the picking process, a Picking Tower can also incorporate a packing area, to further increase the operational efficiency of your e-fulfilment centre.
