Want to enhance your warehouse space?

Often within warehouses your small single pick items create dead space by failing to use all the available room within a bay. However, other larger single pick items take up too much room which prevents you from storing the desired amount. The adaptable dividers of The Rack Group Pick Bin allow for maximisation of available storage within an allocated slot by breaking down valuable, empty space and turning it into an asset.

Designed to increase safety and functionality in small pick areas, The Rack Group’s Pick Bin is an exciting product that could be a solution to your picking issues.

The Pick Bin is a combination of steel frames and dividers which fit within the existing bays of racking. By using the pick bin you are immediately able to enhance warehouse productivity. The bins that you create can be bespoke to the products your company handles, meaning single pick products, or, fast moving products can be placed in an ideal location within the racking.

The Rack Group have independently carried out the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) test. This test uses a scoring system assessing the level of tension and movement for individual areas of the body as they move away from their natural state in specific scenarios, in this case picking. Picking can cause long term injury’s often to the knees, joints, back and shoulders due to the nature of the job.

By putting our Pick Bin to the test in comparison to similar products on the market we were able to adjust designs to improve the ergonomic benefits without losing out on the efficiency of the product. This is just one of the many advantages The Rack Group Pick Bin has over similar products.
As The Rack Group are specialists in warehouse storage equipment safety, the fundamental goal of the pick bin was to increase warehouse productivity and safety in agreement. This goal has been achieved by producing a product that lowers tensions and stresses in movement of picking staff whilst increasing the availability of storage space which is in demand. The adaptable dividers and frames enable warehouse storage space to be used efficiently as well as providing economic benefits as the capital expenditure increases with the overall space gained.

Ideal for enhancing production all year round, the Pick Bin stands out during hectic peak seasons by maximising functionality and minimising wasted space.
