One solution is WPSS RiveTier® Boltless Steel Shelving Systems, which offers the ultimate approach to responsive warehouse storage.

Especially in e-commerce, we’ve seen storage needs fluctuate wildly due to seasonal changes in inventory, promotional activities, or even shifts in consumer shopping behavior with m-commerce and social commerce. To effectively manage these fluctuations, a flexible storage solution is essential. One that can be easily adjusted to allow 3PL providers to respond quickly without incurring significant downtime or additional costs.

The innovative RiveTier system allows quick and foolproof assembly. Boltless connections make units fast and easy to assemble, take down, and reassemble using only a rubber mallet. That’s attractive to logistics providers, knowing they can reconfigure their storage space swiftly and efficiently – whether in response to a change in inventory levels, the introduction of new products, or the addition of new clients.

RiveTier units are free-standing and give workers four-sided access to products. The 14-gauge steel construction can handle long spans and low profiles to maximize vertical space. 3PL companies can create multi-level storage solutions tailored to varying inventory types or sizes. Depending on the beam style, shelves have a load capacity of up to 1,750 lbs. per shelf. The option to add catwalk systems ensures higher shelves are accessible so that all inventory can be managed efficiently.

As new business opportunities present themselves or storage demands fluctuate, 3PL warehouses must be able to scale accordingly. RiveTier provides the ability to swiftly adjust warehouse layouts to accommodate unexpected increases in inventory or shifts in product lines without extensive delays or disruptions. This responsiveness keeps current clients satisfied and positions the company favorably for attracting new business.
