A pallet racking safety net is a precautionary measure to ensure that workplace safety is maintained and asset loss is minimized during warehousing. Pallet racking by design is openly accessible, but in function this becomes somewhat problematic. A forklift is only able to address a pallet which is to be moved from one side of the rack or pallet. This leaves the opposing side of the rack open to spillage and potentially hazardous situations for workers on the floor below. Spillage and on the job injuries can be debilitating to operating a lucrative and ultimately successful warehousing business.

Pallet racking safety netting is affixed to a single side of the rack. This creates a barrier to stop loose objects falling during shelving supplier or removal. There are a number of different options that are available in a pallet rack net. The type of netting comes in a variety of synthetic/organic cordage and metal fabric or mesh. The size of the mesh should also be considered and is offered in a variety of patterns and sizes. Functionality of the rack and goods being warehoused should be considered when determining the type and size of netting suitable to the application.
