Warehouse Rack Inspection

Why should we have racking system inspection?

Pallet racking is classified as ‘Work Equipment’ and therefore requires regular documented inspections and maintenance.
Damage to pallet racking & shelving in the course of working operations can and does happen.

Operator error, poor housekeeping or overloading; ‘DIY’ repairs; lack of maintenance and failure to comply with the manufacturer’s operating instructions, all contribute to seriously threaten the safety of racking structures.

Besides above information, usually the damage to racking system is not obviously, it’s difficult for staff to monitor it from eye, thus it’s necessary to have regularly racking inspection.
