Get Stacking And Keep Calm!
The humble Mobile Shelving is an efficient and straightforward form of warehouse storage that we’ve all seen at some point in our lives. It has a history, one that was impacted by more people than we could have imagined.
The Outbreak of World War II
The British armed forces found themselves with the daunting task of equipping and mobilizing a huge armed force abroad after World War II broke out in 1939. This challenge persisted throughout the war as new soldiers were hurriedly trained and placed on the front lines. This required massive logistical planning, with simple supplies such as electrical torches, blankets, and compasses numbering in the tens of thousands in terms of bulk transport; not to mention the vast amount of munitions required Naturally, this meant a new form of storage, with an eye for efficiency and mobility, was required.
Stacking for Britain!
As a result, pallet racking became a standard on an official level not just for the British Government, but for many Allied nations as well. As many of these items were destined for overseas transportation via freighter or airplane, having the ability to store such large supplies on pallets that could be easily moved by a forklift at any time during the war was essential. It was key to be efficient and mobile when it came to these supplies because they were so vital to the war effort that wasting time or manpower was not an option.
