Storax America | FLEXSPACE to Showcase High Density Warehouse Storage Solutions at the 2016 Global Cold Chain Expo

SOUTH CAROLINA - May 5, 2016 - At the Global Cold Chain Expo in booth 1314, at Chicago's McCormick Place June 20-22, 2106, Storax America | FLEXSPACE are proud to showcase its high-density, mobile, industrial storage solutions aimed at: increasing storage capacity; increasing accessibility and productivity; while decreasing the facility footprint.

"Today's cold storage warehouses and distribution centers need flexible, high density storage solutions that unite efficient space utilization and direct access to inventory," said Todd Jessup, principal at Storax America | FLEXSPACE. "In addition, temperature-controlled facilities are increasingly seeking automated storage solutions that optimize space utilization and decrease energy and labor demands."


For more than 50 years, Storax has been an industrial storage innovator. Its mobile racking system, Poweracks and high-density pallet shuttle, Ranger are in use in over 60 countries in a wide range of industries and applications. Storax's industrial mobile storage solutions help customers drive operational excellence, efficiency and increase profitability.

Poweracks, industrial mobile racking system, is comprised of a racking superstructure installed to a powered moving base. Poweracks replaces conventional static aisles with one moving access aisle. This unique design combines direct access with a substantial increase in storage density.

The Ranger is a high-density modern storage solution that automatically circulates pallets on a shuttle system by handheld remote control or a WiFi PDA device. Utilizing advanced photocell technology, the Ranger intelligently detects and positions itself underneath a pallet, delivering and extracting pallets with a tunnel system.

These automated storage solutions increase storage capacity, increase accessibility, and eliminate underutilized (dead) aisle space.

Other advantages include:

* Decreased operating costs: A smaller, automated facility with greater storage capacity will require less manpower, less maintenance, and less down time.

* Decreased energy costs: Greater storage capacity coupled with a smaller facility footprint will require less lighting, less heating and cooling, less equipment.

* Greater product accessibility: Poweracks and Ranger provide unobstructed access to every storage position; eliminating double-handling of product and reducing product damage.
