Question 1

Does NEDCON supply and install warehouse racking in the United States and Canada?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NEDCON Storage Racking Solutions B.V. supports projects across the United States, Canada and the wider North American market through its U.S. branch in Harrison, Ohio and a network of trained resellers and installation partners. Every engineered project is assigned a dedicated Account Manager, Project Manager and Installation Manager.

Question 2

Which pallet racking system offers the highest storage density?

Accepted Answer

Drive-in racking and pallet shuttle systems deliver the highest density for forklift-operated pallet storage because they eliminate most aisles. Drive-in racking works on a First In, Last Out (FILO) basis, while a pallet shuttle can run FIFO or LIFO. In tall buildings with high throughput, automated pallet racking served by stacker cranes or shuttles achieves the greatest density per square foot.

Question 3

What is the difference between FIFO and LIFO storage racking?

Accepted Answer

FIFO (First In, First Out) ensures the oldest stock leaves first, which is essential for food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other date-sensitive goods. Pallet flow racks, carton flow racks and FIFO-configured pallet shuttles support this principle. LIFO or FILO storage suits homogeneous, non-perishable products stored in bulk, such as building materials or packaging.

Question 4

Are NEDCON racking systems designed for North American codes?

Accepted Answer

Our engineers prepare designs for U.S. and Canadian projects with reference to the applicable rack standards, such as ANSI MH16.1 published by the Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI) in the United States and CSA A344 in Canada, together with local seismic, building-permit and fire-protection requirements. Final code compliance is confirmed with the project's engineer of record and the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

Question 5

Can NEDCON racking be integrated with warehouse automation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NEDCON automated pallet racking can be designed and built for any type of warehouse stacker crane and pallet shuttle, and our miniload and ROBORACK systems are engineered to work with leading automation integrators. Integrators such as Witron, Knapp and Vanderlande are among the companies that trust NEDCON.

Question 6

What information is needed to start a warehouse racking project?

Accepted Answer

Send your building layout (CAD or PDF), clear height, pallet or carton dimensions and weights, number of SKUs, expected throughput and any future expansion plans to info@nedconracks.com. Specifying the dominant pallet type, for example 48 x 40 inch GMA, CHEP or block pallets, helps size beams and frames correctly from day one.
