If you work in a warehouse, you probably understand the importance of a bottom line. The warehouse industry already has very small profit margins, making most warehouse managers hungry for any money-saving technique. They must incorporate these while still preserving the level of safety that their employees expect. One of the most surprising ways to save money while still preserving safety in the warehouse has to do with the rack decking you choose. Here is how rack decking can save you money!
Wear Resistant
Wire mesh has a construction that is both durable and long-lasting. Compared to wood, which can often warp or splinter in adverse conditions, these types of decking experience minimal wear. Because they last longer than wood decking, wire decking costs less over time, as you won’t need to replace it often. Rest easy that even with constant and heavy usage, this decking will stay in good condition.
Unaffected by Temperature
One of the overlooked aspects of wire decking is that it is unaffected by weather. With wood, this can be a problem—especially in humid areas—as moisture can often cause the decks to warp and eventually need replacement. Compare this with wire decking and its metal construction, and you can see the obvious boon of functionality and longevity that it provides.
Easy To Install
One of the best things about wire mesh decking is that it is extremely easy to install. Unlike wood, wire mesh decking requires no cutting, sanding, or any other fabrication. This is because, in most cases, the decking comes from the factory precut, so you do not have to waste time and money in putting together the shelving like you have to do with wood.
Lower Cost
Overall, there is a vastly lower cost associated with wire rack decking. With wood decking, you must factor in the cost of cutting, installing, and eventually replacing the wood, which in every case will cost much more than the simple installation and upfront cost of wire decking.
We hope that this article has opened your eyes to the many ways that rack decking can save you money. If you have any questions on the different types of racking or are simply looking for pallet rack decking for sale, reach out to Rack Safety Products for more information.
