What are the main types of industrial shelving?

There are several types of industrial shelving solutions, but four of these types in particular currently stand out as the most commonly used in warehousing operations. These are:

1. Steel shelving
2. Boltless/rivet shelving
3. Dynamic shelving
4. Wire shelving

What are boltless shelving systems?

Boltless shelving is a type of industrial shelving system where the components of the shelves are fastened in place with single- or double-locking rivet mechanisms. As they do not use nuts and bolts, they are extremely easy to install. In most cases, a rubber mallet is all that is required to set up a boltless shelf. Despite this simplicity, their design ensures long-term structural integrity, and heavy-duty boltless shelving systems have been used to store large and bulky items.

What are the advantages of boltless shelving?

The key advantage offered by boltless shelving is versatility. The configuration of a boltless shelf can be customised to match the space of your warehouse, while the heights of the individual shelves on each rack can be decided as per your requirement. This allows the optimal usage of all available space. Another reason for the popularity of boltless shelving in Singapore is that setting it up does not require specialised equipment, making it cheaper and faster to install than other shelving options in most cases.
