Carton Flow Rack
Carton flow racks from Culver Equipment deliver gravity-driven, high-density FIFO storage for order picking and split-case operations. Upgrade your warehouse with custom case flow racking, designed for maximum SKU visibility, fast picking, and effortless replenishment.
What is Carton Flow Racking?
Carton flow racks (gravity flow, case flow) use inclined roller lanes to move boxes, bins, or totes from loading to picking—no electricity needed. Perfect for high-volume order picking, split case, and small parts storage, carton flow maximizes product visibility and reduces picking times in warehouses, distribution centers, and fulfillment operations.
- FIFO Inventory: First-in, first-out picking keeps stock fresh and rotation efficient.
- High-Density: Save valuable warehouse space—store more SKUs per square foot than static shelving.
- Order Picking Speed: Cartons automatically flow to the pick face, boosting pick rates and accuracy.
- SKU Visibility: Every SKU is visible and easily accessed for fast, accurate picking and inventory control.
- Custom Designed: Flow lanes and rollers are built for your product sizes, weights, and picking methods.
- Easy Integration: Fits new or existing pallet rack frames—add flow where you need it, when you need it.
- Cost-Effective: Reduce labor costs and product damage—lower total picking costs over time.
