High-density storage solutions to maximize space, capacity and productivity

High-density storage solutions create capacity by maximizing vertical space and reducing aisleways, helping you get more from your existing footprint. FORTNA combines data-driven operational design, automation and intelligent software to develop tailored solutions that increase capacity, improve accuracy and support faster, more efficient fulfillment.

Create capacity without expanding your footprint

Growing inventory, increasing SKU counts and limited warehouse space can make it difficult to scale without expansion. High-density storage helps distribution operations make better use of existing space, optimizing to accommodate more inventory while supporting the throughput and productivity needed to outpace demand.

Solutions such as FORTNA AutoStore und Hai Robotics combine high-density storage with goods-to-person automation to reduce travel and manual handling, improve inventory flow and make more efficient use of available labor. These solutions can reduce storage footprints by up to 75%, helping operations create additional capacity without expanding their facilities.

But maximizing density is only part of the equation. FORTNA evaluates your inventory, order profiles, throughput requirements and facility constraints to design a solution that balances capacity, productivity and long-term scalability.

Benefits of high-density storage

  • Maximize space utilization: Store more inventory within your existing footprint by reducing aisle space and making better use of vertical capacity.
  • Improve labor efficiency: Reduce operator travel and manual handling by bringing inventory directly to operators, helping operations accomplish more with available labor.
  • Increase throughput: Optimize product flow and reduce congestion to move inventory more efficiently and support faster fulfillment.
  • Support growing SKU counts: Accommodate more products within the same footprint with flexible storage configurations that adapt to changing inventory profiles and growth.
  • Improve inventory control: Gain greater visibility into inventory locations and movement while reducing manual handling and errors to support more accurate fulfillment.
  • Support scalability and flexibility: Adapt to changing demand with modular solutions that can expand as storage, throughput and product requirements evolve, helping operations grow without major facility redesigns.

High-density storage FAQs

High-density storage is a warehouse storage approach designed to maximize the amount of inventory that can be stored within a given footprint. These solutions use compact storage configurations, vertical space and automation to increase storage capacity while reducing the floorspace required for inventory.

High-density storage solutions that incorporate automation and Ware-zur-Person workflows can reduce the time operators spend walking, searching for inventory and manually handling products. This can help organizations make better use of available labor while improving productivity.

High-density storage can be extremely valuable in brownfield facilities where available space is limited and building an additional facility may not be practical. By maximizing vertical space and reducing the footprint required for inventory, high-density solutions can help operations create additional capacity within their existing facility.

The right solution depends on factors such as SKU count, item dimensions, inventory velocity, order profiles, throughput requirements, available space, building height and labor requirements. FORTNA uses operational data and modeling to evaluate these factors and identify the technology and configuration that best fit your business objectives.

High-density storage maximizes available space by reducing unnecessary aisleways and maximizing vertical space within the facility. The result is greater storage capacity within the same footprint.
