Types of Bito racking and systems
Bito shelving racks (XL series)
The XL 400 and XL 500 shelving racks are Bito's flagship product: robust, modular and easy to extend. Available in light and medium-duty versions, ideal for storing boxes, bins and loose goods. The racks are height-adjustable in 25 mm steps and easy to assemble without tools.
Bito pallet racking
Besides shelving racks, Bito also supplies conventional pallet racking for storing pallets with heavy goods. Direct access to every pallet, available in single-deep and double-deep configurations. Suitable for all common pallet sizes and forklift types, certified in accordance with EN 15512.
Bito pallet flow system (PDS)
Bito's Pallet Durchlauf System (PDS) is a pallet flow rack for FIFO storage: pallets are loaded on one side and roll automatically to the unloading side. Ideal for perishable goods, pharmaceutical products and any item where storage and retrieval order matters.
Bito storage bins and containers
Bito is also world-renowned for its storage bins, KLT containers and container systems — the ideal addition to its shelving racks. From small picking bins to large stackable warehouse containers: Bito offers a complete system for organised and efficient storage of loose items.
