This type of racking has several names describing what is a middle category of storage between standard steel shelving, heavier bulk shelving for boxes, crates, single odd shaped items and heavier loads that are packaged on pallets and stored using a forklift versus lighter style items that are stored by hand. This makes it easier to keep smaller items away from larger items promoting the categorization of inventory. An immediate advantage of bulk storage shelving is that it helps to maximize the floorspace in facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers.
