Standardized warehouse racking placement is crucial for ensuring smooth warehouse operations, ensuring item safety, and improving work efficiency. Proper warehouse rackingplacement not only improves warehouse space utilization but also reduces the risk of damage and loss, while facilitating easy management and retrieval. The following is a detailed set of warehouse racking placement standards designed to help warehouse managers achieve efficient, safe, and orderly warehouse management.

"Five Distances" Requirements for Warehouse Stacking safety standards


1. Ceiling Distance: The distance between the top surface of the stacked goods and the warehouse roof should be at least 50 cm (for gable roofs, this should not exceed the horizontal beam) to prevent damage and fire risks.


2. Lighting Distance: Fixed lighting in the warehouse should be at least 50 cm away from the merchandise to prevent the lights from coming too close to the merchandise and causing fires.


3. Wall Distance: The distance between walls and stacked goods should be at least 50 cm (for exterior walls) or at least 30 cm (for interior walls) to facilitate ventilation, moisture dissipation, and fire prevention.


4. Column Distance: The distance between the stacked goods and the columns should be 10-20 cm to prevent moisture from entering the columns and protect the columns.


5. Stacking Distance: The distance between stacks should be approximately 100 cm to facilitate ventilation and inspection, prevent confusion, and facilitate rescue and evacuation of supplies in the event of a fire.

Other considerations for Warehouse Stacking safety standards


1. Regular Inventory: Conduct regular inventory counts to ensure accurate inventory quantities and keep inventory information up to date. Label cartons or containers with the latest inventory count information for easy reference and verification.


2. Labeling: Each storage area and item should be clearly labeled with information such as material name, specifications, quantity, batch number, and date of entry. Labeling should be clear, accurate, and easily identifiable for easy management and retrieval.


3. Fire Safety: Firefighting equipment and equipment should be installed in the warehouse and regularly inspected and maintained. Smoking, the use of open flames, and the storage of flammable and explosive items are strictly prohibited in the warehouse. Electrical equipment in the warehouse must meet fire prevention requirements and be regularly inspected and maintained.


4. Personnel Safety: Warehouse personnel should receive safety training and be familiar with warehouse safety operating procedures and emergency response measures. Safety operating procedures should be followed when handling, loading, and unloading goods to prevent accidents.
