BITO multi-tier shelving installations

By taking advantage of vertical space, multi-tier storage can increase space utilisation by up to 100%. Multi-tier storage is particularly useful for a large, constantly growing product range and if direct access to all items or unit loads is needed at all times. Fast-moving items can be stored on the lower levels for quick access and slow-moving items on the upper levels. A major advantage of multi-tier systems is that picking can take place simultaneously on several levels, which will substantially increase picking performance. Given these advantages, multi-tier installations are particularly interesting for e-commerce companies that offer a wide product assortment with varying assortment depths. With additional features such as lifts, spiral chutes and guard railing, a multi-tier system can be customised for more efficiency.
 

BITO Multi-tier facilities and quality shelving are a perfect match

The cornerstone of every BITO multi-tier system is top-quality shelving from BITO. Boltless shelving is not only very versatile, customisable and easy to extend. It also meets all quality standards such as corrosion and impact resistance, aided by surface finishes such as a bright galvanised finish or a powder coated finish in RAL colours. There is always direct access to the goods which are stored in FIFO order. BITO shelving is easy to assemble without bolts, making installation fast and efficient. In addition, there are useful accessories and additional components that extend the range of uses. For heavy items and unit loads, BITO also offers heavy-duty shelving with increased shelf and bay loads. BITO is one of the few material storage and handling suppliers who manufacture shelving and racking as well as plastic bins and containers in their own plants. We provide shelving complete with bins from a single source.
 

Multi-tier systems come in many design options

There are various design options that can be adapted to your ideas and requirements. Multi-tier storage systems can be designed as a single-tier structure with a platform on top or as a multi-tier structure. Adding a second level increases the usable floor surface by up to 100 per cent and the available storage space increases accordingly. This significantly reduces storage costs. Space utilisation and storage capacity of multi-tier systems depend on the position of the stairs. In addition to the stairs, spiral chutes, lifts, several transfer points for pallets, lighting and sprinkler systems can also be integrated into the system. Our specialists will discuss the right option with you directly on site. Together, we plan the system to suit your individual workflow, material flow and building constraints and we will explain the advantages of each design variant in detail.
