Spaceway has years of experience in providing Pallet Live systems for the storage of pallets, guaranteeing the FIFO (First-in-First Out) principle, dynamic pallet live provides extremely high volumes of storage within a given area.

Pallets are loaded into specific lanes on either a full width or twin track roller system depending on the weight and quality of the pallet. When a pallet is removed from the pick face, the next pallet automatically rolls into position and replenishment stock can be loaded into the other end of the lane.

This means stock rotation is automatic with minimal fork lift truck movement to handle the flow of goods.

The applications are varied, but Pallet Live can be used in the following ways:

Pallet Live is often used in Warehousing and Distribution to store batches of the same product, (without the handling difficulties of Drive-In racking) In the food and beverage markets, the FIFO operation is particularly important.

Pallet live is also common in manufacturing areas for storage of raw materials.

As Spaceway was able to install pedestrian walkways rather than mezzanine floors, we have not only saved on installation costs but also reduced the cost of our ongoing business rates. We have now been able to store all 30,000 files in one location. It has been a huge project but we are thrilled with the outcome.

Good examples of this are, bulk food, metal processing and packaging materials.

Two pallet deep storage for case picking under pallet racking, ideal for cutting down on replenishment times and reducing travel distances. This can also be used under our Carton Live system, providing a total system for any product size.

Apart from allowing good volume utilisation, FIFO-based pallet live storage solutions also provide economic advantages. By grouping together all the pallets which make a complete lorry load, it is possible to reduce both lorry waiting time as well as travel time for in-house transport. The increase in efficiency over conventional racking can be up to 60%.
