Advanced Carton Flow Racking System
Accelerate your order fulfillment with gravity-fed precision. Gieantech carton flow systems reduce walking time by 40% while ensuring 100% SKU visibility and zero-energy replenishment for high-speed picking operations.
High-Speed Gravity Flow Solution
Designed for split-case picking and high-volume SKU rotation.
Gieantech Carton Flow Racking, also known as Gravity Live Storage, is a high-density system using inclined roller beds to move cartons from the loading side to the picking side automatically. It effectively separates replenishment from picking, eliminating traffic interference and maximizing worker productivity in e-commerce, pharmaceutical, and F&B distribution centers.
Auto-Replenishment
Gravity drives stock to picking face.
Density Boost
Eliminate aisles between boxes.
Ergonomic Picking
Optimum reach height for pickers.
Scaleable System
Easily retrofittable to pallet racks.
Eliminate Picking Bottlenecks
Stock Rotation Issues
Deep static shelving leads to expired goods or buried stock behind new shipments.
✅ 100% Strict FIFO FlowWasted Travel Time
Pickers spend 60% of their time walking between spread-out static shelving bins.
✅ 40% Reduction in WalkingLoading Interference
Replenishing stock blocks pickers, causing safety hazards and pick-delays.
✅ Dual-Aisle SeparationSystem Key Features
Strict FIFO
First-in, first-out ensures fresh inventory and stock rotation.

Trusted Across High-Volume Industries
Carton flow racking is ideal for warehouses handling high-volume, fast-moving consumer goods, especially in e-commerce, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and retail distribution industries.
Cold Storage & Freezer
Galvanised steel tracks and sealed roller bearings perform reliably down to -30°C. Separate loading and picking aisles reduce cold-room door openings, maintaining temperature integrity and cutting energy costs in frozen distribution centres.
Food & Beverage
Gravity-fed flow lanes guarantee date-code rotation for perishable goods, reducing spoilage and supporting HACCP traceability requirements. Galvanised roller tracks withstand cold and humid environments for ambient, chilled, and frozen distribution.
3PL & Logistics
Enable rapid floor replenishment by keeping best-selling products continuously presented at the pick face. Adjustable lane widths accommodate a wide variety of retail carton sizes, making seasonal range changes fast and tool-free.
E-Commerce Hubs
Perfect for high-velocity fulfillment centers handling thousands of daily orders. Carton flow lanes keep fast-moving SKUs auto-replenished at the picking face, slashing picker travel time and enabling same-day dispatch at scale.
Electronics MFG
Support ESD-sensitive component storage with anti-static roller options. Flow lanes keep PCBs, connectors, and sub-assemblies organised by production batch, ensuring correct sequencing and minimising handling damage on the assembly floor.
Automotive Parts
Organise high-mix, low-volume parts for assembly lines and dealership stockrooms with dedicated SKU lanes. Carton flow systems ensure sequenced delivery of components to the line side, supporting just-in-time production without manual sorting.
Cosmetics / FMCG
Handle hundreds of active SKUs with zero cross-contamination between product lines. Individual carton lanes maintain brand and batch segregation, while the gravity-fed system keeps shelves looking full and picking errors to a minimum.
Pharmaceuticals
Strict FIFO rotation ensures earliest-expiry stock is always picked first, eliminating waste and supporting GMP compliance. Lane dividers segregate SKUs cleanly, reducing mis-pick rates in high-accuracy pharmaceutical distribution environments.
Fast, Modular Installation
Upright & Beam Setup
Erect the basic industrial shelving structure using our boltless clip-in design.
Flow Bed Mounting
Hook the roller beds onto the beams at the required incline angle (4-6%).
Track & Lane Alignment
Install dividers and exit trays based on your specific carton dimensions.

Common Questions
Rigid plastic bins and high-quality cardboard cartons work best. We provide different roller materials (plastic/steel) to match your box friction.
Yes, Gieantech flow beds are designed to clip onto most standard teardrop or P-profile pallet racking beams.
Our rollers are sealed for life. Maintenance only involves periodic visual inspection for debris on the tracks.
Typically 3-5 tiers for manual picking. For taller systems, we integrate them into multi-tier mezzanines with walkways.
