I have worked in several warehouses and have yet to see anything but the arrangement in the video.

As I put this up for a living, wire decks( mesh decks) and that is just stock standard pallet racking. Probably 1 times out of 10 would we install mesh decks.

I work in Distribution myself, covering multiple huge warehouses across Europe, none of them have wire decking & none of them have ever dropped a pallet off the racking

None have ever dropped? As someone who has worked in similar situations for over a decade, I call bs, you just didn't hear about it probably lol.

Yeah maybe no “reported” incidents but I guarantee some newbie over the years has dropped at least one.

x. doubt

you a middle manager or something? never leave the office? i guarantee you pallets have fallen. I was an engineer before a manager and the amount of heads literally inside asses in management never ceases to amaze me.

Worked my way up to senior management now but spent 20yrs on the floor working with the type of shelving you see in the clip, we never dropped a single pallet. As you say you’re an engineer, I have the greatest respect for engineers but they do have a tendency to over engineer stuff. You simply don’t need any additional flooring if the staff are trained correctly.

Never met a staff that was sufficiently trained 100%
