Rack Inspections

Why are Rack Inspections Necessary?

Collapsing pallet racking poses a danger for users, including the workers themselves and anyone else who happens to be nearby. When damaged or low-quality racks fail under heavy loads, they can cause accidents, serious injuries, or even death.

 

A wide variety of pallet racks for specific types of applications are sold on today's market. Since the construction of pallet racks is not regulated, their quality varies greatly. In fact, while some manufacturers, distributors, or installers provide excellent quality products and services, others have a tendency to offer their customers less robust racks, which can jeopardize quality and safety.
