About
Drive-In | Drive-Thru Racks

Industrial Drive-In | Drive-Thru racks are high-density storage solutions designed to optimize warehouse storage space, both horizontally and vertically. They consist of a set of shelves forming internal loading aisles for each product, with support rails for pallets, enabling better stock control.

Drive-In | Drive-Thru racks operate on the accumulation storage principle. Forklifts enter the shelves from one end to place or retrieve pallets, following the LIFO method (last in, first out). This method is especially useful for non-perishable or low-turnover products. In the case of Drive-Thru racks, the FIFO system (first in, first out) is used, allowing access from both ends of the structure.
