Industrial Storage Racking

Your storage racking system can influence productivity throughout the entire logistics chain. Steel storage racks are common equipment in industries such as distribution centres, warehouses, manufacturing plants, and the storage area of retail operations.
This course will help participants identify inherent hazards associated with storage racks and understand best practices for effective installation, maintenance and repair to prevent incidents, injuries, lost time and unforeseen expenses.
