IronMax Storage Solutions Co., Ltd. specializes in structural engineering and direct manufacturing of heavy duty push back racking systems. Designed to double or triple warehouse storage density compared to standard selective pallet racking, push back systems utilize nested cart mechanisms traveling on inclined structural steel rails.
Operating under the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) inventory control principle, forklift operators remain in the main aisle, pushing existing pallets back when adding new stock. When a front pallet is retrieved, gravity seamlessly glides the remaining pallets forward to the picking face, drastically reducing loading and unloading cycle times.
Engineered to safely accommodate 500 kg to 5,000 kg per beam level, with lane depths spanning 2 to 6 pallets deep.
Eliminates multiple forklift aisles, reclaiming up to 75% of wasted aisle floor space for productive storage.
Precision-welded nested carts equipped with sealed steel bearings ensure zero binding and smooth movement.
Available in hot-dip galvanized coating or epoxy powder finish designed for sub-zero freezer operations.
Standard and custom configurations built to international FEM, RMI, and ISO safety standards.
Every push back racking project manufactured by IronMax Storage Solutions Co., Ltd. undergoes rigorous engineering stress analysis based on seismic factors, vertical height clearance, forklift tilt angles, and pallet deflection parameters.

Push back racking utilizes inclined structural rails and a series of nested rolling carts. The first pallet is placed on the top cart. When the second pallet is loaded, the forklift pushes the first pallet back, revealing the next cart beneath. Retrieval works via gravity: as pallets are unloaded from the aisle, remaining pallets glide forward automatically.
Unlike drive-in racking, push back racking does not require forklift trucks to drive into the rack lanes. Operators remain in the main aisle, resulting in faster handling speeds, reduced rack frame damage, and higher selectivity across individual storage lanes.
Yes. IronMax Storage Solutions Co., Ltd. customizes cart dimensions, rail lengths, upright profile gauges, and load capacities based on your specific pallet sizes (Euro, GMA, or industrial custom steel pallets) and warehouse CAD layouts.
Each export order includes steel mill material test reports, dimensional inspection logs, coating thickness verification, step-by-step assembly drawings, and remote video installation support from our engineering team.
