A rack-supported platform is a storage system that incorporates a mezzanine floor built directly on top of pallet racking or shelving units. This design allows for the creation of additional storage or work space above the existing floor level, utilizing vertical space efficiently. The mezzanine structure is supported by the racking system, which can handle the weight and provide stability. Rack-supported platform are ideal for warehouses and industrial facilities looking to maximize their storage capacity without the need for structural modifications to the building. They offer a cost-effective solution for expanding usable space, improving inventory organization, and enhancing operational efficiency.
