According to Equipto, reducing downtime in servicing new and existing vehicles in auto, truck and farm-equipment parts rooms and maintaining efficient parts availability—from tiny screws to bulky fenders to heavy engine blocks—is critical. Now a new flexible type of storage system, that starts from raw shelving and evolves as one’s business does, is allowing parts managers to create denser, more space and labor-efficient parts-storage capacity as business, budget and storage needs change. The V-Grip storage system begins with heavy-duty uprights, and top, bottom, back and side panels. Shelves with up to 400 lbs. capacity can be added and adjusted at 3-in. increments for storage of bulk items and items of different sizes.
