Floor Warehouse

Description of floor warehouse

A floor warehouse is a form of storing system where goods are stored on the floor of the warehouse. Floor storage can be used for both commercial and industrial purposes. This method of storage is the most common and is usually used for smaller and lighter goods. Floor storage is the most common form of storage in industry. Most companies that store products resort to this method. The products can be stored in boxes or stacked. Overall, the floor warehouse is a good choice for companies that need to store relatively small and light goods. This warehouse is very cost-effective and easy to set up, as it does not require expensive shelving or construction. However, floor storage is also very disorganised and congestion can easily form.

Floor warehouse is therefore best suited for goods that are not too fragile and that are not used too often. As floor storage is very disorganised, the goods should not be too heavy so that they can be moved easily. This type of warehouse is particularly suitable for products that are hygienically sensitive or for which there are the strictest safety precautions. It is usually smaller than a conventional warehouse and therefore has less capacity. However, the conditions are often better than in other warehouses because the building is often new and well ventilated.

The main advantages are its flexibility and ease of handling. As the goods are stored directly on the floor, it is relatively easy to load and unload them. In addition, the goods can be moved around relatively easily, so the warehouse can be adapted to the needs of the company at any time. However, there are also some disadvantages. For one thing, it is relatively susceptible to damage because the goods are stored directly on the floor and can therefore be damaged more easily. Secondly, it is often more difficult to organise and find goods in a floor warehouse, as they are not stored on shelves or in cupboards.

Advantages of a floor warehouse

Easy access: Because the products are stored on the floor, it is easier to access the products than with a high rack. You don't have to climb up a shelf to get to your product.

Less expensive: Floor storage is usually less expensive than high-bay storage because it requires less effort and infrastructure.

More flexible: Floor warehouses are more flexible than high-bay warehouses because you can change the position of the products more easily. You can shift or rearrange the products as needed.

Disadvantages of a floor warehouse

Less space: Because the products are stored on the floor, the warehouse is usually smaller than with a high rack. This means that you may be able to store fewer products.

Dustier environment: Because the products are stored on the floor, the warehouse is usually dustier than with a high rack.
