Picking shelving/Menorack: organization and direct access, without specialized machinery
Picking shelving, also known as Menorack, is an industrial storage system for manually handled goods, ideal for small or medium-sized products that do not require a forklift. Its modular structure lets you organize loads, adjust levels and provide direct access to every product in warehouses, distribution centers, spare parts stores, archives and picking areas.
What is picking shelving/Menorack?
It is a versatile solution that improves organization, inventory visibility and operational productivity without the need for specialized machinery. Unlike pallet racking, it is designed for 100% manual operation: the operator reaches each level directly, without using a forklift.
Key features
Manual operation: ideal for boxes, spare parts, loose items, packaged products and low- or medium-volume goods.
Adjustable levels: lets you change the height of the shelves to suit the size of the product.
Direct access: makes picking, manual order filling and visual inventory control easier.
Modular design: it can be adjusted, expanded or reconfigured as your operation grows.
Lower operating cost: no forklift or specialized equipment is needed for its operation.
Benefits · Impact on your operation
It improves organization, cuts search times, makes inventory counts easier, increases productivity in manual picking and lets you make better use of the warehouse's available height without complex investments in handling equipment.
Ideal applications
Warehouses, distribution centers, spare parts stores, archives and picking areas; any operation with low- or medium-volume goods that are handled manually.
What is stored alongside this shelving in a textile operation?
In fashion and apparel distribution centers, picking shelving/Menorack is the solution for goods handled folded or boxed (folded items, individual packs, accessories). Garments that must stay hanging use a different system: a transport and storage rail (manual or automated), not this shelving. The two systems often coexist in the same textile operation, each handling the product format it is suited to.
