Pallet Flow Racking
(Dynamic)

Perfect FIFO rotation through gravity. The go-to solution for perishable goods and strict date management.

The solution

The right product
comes out first.

Pallet flow, or dynamic racking, uses slightly inclined lanes fitted with rollers or rails. Pallets are loaded at the back and move in a controlled manner toward the pick face at the front. This separation of loading and picking supports a first-in, first-out (FIFO) logic.

For perishable goods, dated products, tracked lots, or high-turnover volumes, this mechanism helps maintain consistent stock discipline. Agir Installation plans the lanes, forklift access, braking components, and pallet compatibility with the selected system.

Is this the right system?

Choosing based on
your inventory.

This system often fits well if…

  • Dated, perishable, or batch-managed products
  • Operations requiring FIFO rotation
  • High volumes with several pallets per SKU
  • Warehouses able to plan separate aisles for loading and picking

Keep in mind

This system does not replace pallet and flow analysis. Damaged or incompatible pallets can disrupt smooth movement through the lanes.

How it works

A clearer flow.
A better organized operation.

1

Load from the back

The forklift places pallets at the entrance of the loading lane.

2

Flow forward

Gravity moves the pallets forward along a controlled lane.

3

Pick from the front

The forklift removes the oldest pallet; the next one moves forward into the pick face.

Frequently asked questions

Plan with
the right data.

Loads, dimensions, pallet types, handling equipment, flows, and building constraints are all part of every analysis. Let’s talk about your project before you choose.

Why is pallet flow suitable for perishable products?

Because it organizes the flow so that the first pallet in becomes the first pallet available for picking. Date-management rules must still be applied within your processes.

Can all pallets travel on rollers?

No. The pallet’s strength, base, weight, and condition must be compatible with the lane’s components. This validation is part of the project assessment.

Are two aisles required?

The classic configuration provides a separate loading face and picking face. The layout depends on your building, your flows, and your forklifts.
