Selective racking is the most common warehouse storage system, giving direct access to every pallet position. It works well for facilities with a wide variety of SKUs.

Yes, because every pallet is individually accessible, it’s ideal when you need to pick from many different SKUs rather than storing large quantities of a few products.

Wire decking, particle board, or solid steel decking is used when storing smaller items, products or non rackable pallets that can’t rest directly on beams safely.
