What Are Wire Mesh Shelves And Its Benefits?

You can never be too responsible when it comes to the safety of your employees and consumers. That is why, rather than waiting for fate to decide for you, it is important to get the shelving for your warehouse properly the first time. The incorrect shelving can cause property damage and possibly pose a hazard to people who work with and around it.

For at least some of their everyday operations, most manufacturing organisations and warehouses must use shelves. When parts, materials, equipment, and other supplies are not directly on the factory line, shelves are used to store them. While there are many different types of shelves, wire mesh is one of the best materials for industrial shelves.

Wire mesh shelves are the best option for warehouse owners, especially when compared to other materials like MDF or steel, and here's why…

Strenght And Reliability

Wire mesh shelves are strong and durable, with four in-welded pallet support bars per shelf, and can handle 1000 kg per shelf. They also distribute the whole weight of your products throughout the beams of your building, increasing its sturdiness and boosting your capacity. Wire mesh shelves are zinc-plated for further durability, ensuring that even the heaviest loads are supported.

First and importantly, put your safety first.

Wire mesh shelves offer numerous safety advantages. Wire mesh shelving improves sprinkler access and reduces fire risk due to its small size and low weight. They also have no sharp edges, which means they won't harm people or products, lowering the chance of harm and loss. Add in the fact that they're great for placing beneath pathways so that pallet contents fall onto the mesh rather than your employees.

Affordability

Wire mesh shelving is easy to carry, making it simple to set up and move. No tools are required for installation because they simply drop into place over the pallet racking beams. They also improve light and airflow while reducing dust accumulation, and unlike MDF, they do not absorb moisture and so do not discolour or warp.

Secure Equipment & Tool Storage

One of the most obvious advantages of these lockers is their ability to carry higher loads and larger equipment, making them ideal for storing more valuable and/or difficult-to-operate hand tools and smaller machines. By keeping them locked up and separate, you can both safeguard them from any loss or damage and keep your staff safe if they aren't taught how to use them properly.

Easy Inventory Control

The open design, in a similar vein, allows you to keep an eye on anything that is currently within the locker. The wire's holes allow you to see the product on the shelves from all sides. This can assist avoid loss by keeping the objects in sight at all times during product counts, allowing easy access to the products.  

Wire mesh shelves are perfect for storing items that are small or irregularly shaped. They're perfect for storing smaller pallets or loads that aren't deep enough to lay directly on beams, and they have vertical dividers to help separate products.They can run front to back or side to side because of their versatility, allowing you to save space by eliminating the need to store products on pallets. This is especially useful because they are available in a variety of lengths to meet any beam length and widths to fit any frame dimension. They can fit into almost any storage area and handle a wide range of items and items.

Note: Always keep in mind that the shelf should not be overloaded. Always verify the manufacturer's weight limit instructions before attempting to hold anything heavier than that. A collapsing shelf is more than a small annoyance; it has the potential to cause significant damage and serious injuries, especially in a professional setting.
