Retail Shelving and Storage Solutions
The large influx of shoppers flowing into your outlet store can be a good sign of fortune blossoming. In addition to having good store traffic, it is also important to optimize your retail store layout to convert visitors into paying customers.
Due to space concerns, retail shops often only house a limited amount of stock for each SKU. This can affect your brand image and sales revenue when your outlet runs out of stock during sales or peak shopping seasons.
Here at Fortisco, our storage solution can help you double the storage capacity in your shop. Learn how your investment in our mobile retail shelving can help benefit your business in the long run. Our solution helps maximize sales per square foot.
Benefits of Our Mobile High-Density Retail Shelving System
1. Increase Retail Sales By Displaying More Products In-Store
Our retail display shelves provide compact storage. This storage system allows retailers to showcase and exhibit more products within the same square feet.
Customers are able to see, touch, feel and try out more products in-store.
This can lead to a higher conversion rate as customers are distracted and tempted to purchase items that may not be in their shopping list in the first place.
2. Increase Salesperson’s Productivity By Minimizing Trips to Storeroom
For some industries, it may not be possible to display all product variations on the sales floor due to limited space. A shoe store, for example, will only display a single shoe and a single size on the retail shelving racks. Customers will usually need to wait for the salesperson to retrieve the right pair of shoes from the storeroom.
With mobile shelving, customers can easily grab their desired pair of shoes right from the retail shelves. Your salesperson can also focus on serving the customer right on the sales floor instead of having to run back and forth to retrieve merchandise from the storeroom.
3. Retail Display Shelves are Custom Made to Fit In-Store Design
To fulfil your display and storage needs, Fortisco provides mobile shelving that is flexible and customisable.
We can tailor-make decorative panels for the retail store storage racks. It can be customised to look stylish, presentable, and also to match with the floor design.
Increase Retail Storeroom Storage Capacity
To house a greater amount of stock within the same footprint, we often recommend our clients to invest in mobile shelving for the backend storage. This type of shelving rack offers a higher storage capacity and greater utilisation of the existing storeroom space compared to static shelving.
If you have more storage space in your store, you will be able to save on logistics costs as you do not need to restock from outskirt warehouse as frequently as before.
An Organised Storeroom Will Lead to Retail Success
In addition to the improved backend storage capacity, a mobile shelving system allows you to better organise your stock according to their category. Not only will it be easier for you to track and secure your inventory, but your stock will also be visible and accessible. This makes it efficient to retrieve or count stocks.
If the storeroom storage space is not properly planned, it will be time-consuming to look for a particular stock. You might end up losing a customer due to the long waiting time.
Conclusion

Art Rack Storage For Art Gallery and Museum
Whether you’re an avid private art collector or curator for art galleries or museums, if you’re looking for a professional solution to properly organize and store expensive artworks, you are at the right place!
With three types of art racks and seven different options, Fortisco offers a wide range of storage solutions that are designed to compactly and safely store valuable and irreplaceable artwork collection.
Our high capacity artwork storage racks can be installed as a static or flexible mobile storage system, depending on your storage needs. Our wide range of artwork storage solution is also famous for its compact and space-saving designs.
Static Art Rack For Intermediate Storage
Our ArteStore Static range is immovable, which is perfect for temporary artwork storage in museums or galleries. To minimize the risk of cross-contamination in storage and exhibition areas, having a temporary storage area to house any incoming collection is a good practice. This allows the new collection to be individually isolated, inspected and if necessary, cleaned.
In addition to temporary storage, static shelving is also a cheaper solution as this simple design has fewer mechanisms involved. This is the best starting storage option when space is not yet that big of a concern for your organization.
Mobile Art Rack For High Capacity Long Term Storage
Up next, we have 3 different product lines that are best for high capacity and long term storage.
Roll-Out Art Panel Storage System
ArteStore Terra and ArteStore Penda are both a roll-out art panel storage system. They are great for artwork display, preservation and storage. The former is guided by railing on the ground while the latter has suspended railing for easy manoeuvre.
ArteStore Terra
With this roll-out art gallery storage system, patrons can now admire any artwork from the collection simply by pulling the art panel out. This promotes engagement and allows paintings to be easily located and examined in situ.
ArteStore Penda
Mobile Shelving Storage System
Meanwhile, Compactus® ArteStore is mobile shelving with screens made of rigid wire mesh and supported on a metal frame. It is the most space-saving solution as it only requires us to reserve an aisle’s worth of walking space for artwork retrieval. However, as Compactus shelving involves movement of a few shelving units at every operation, this may not be desirable in some instances. Please consult our specialist for artwork storage recommendation if you have such concerns.
Compactus ArteStore
Depending on your existing floor layout, budget and storage goals, our specialists will propose the best design to fit your storage requirement.
Increase Access to Museum Collections Through Visible Storage
Visible Storage is a new storage concept that allows visitors to have access to museum collections that would otherwise be hidden from public view.
With many museums and galleries holding up to 90% of their collection in storage, this technique is becoming more common. In recent years, institutions ranging from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to London’s Victoria & Albert Museum have adopted visible storage to display elements of their stored collections.
We are able to help your museum implement visible storage via our custom artwork storage rack. By allocating proper storage space for every single piece of artwork in a visible storage casing, we can help maintain optimal preservation environment and ensures security at the same time.
In short, our storage system maximizes the storage capacity within the same footprint, effectively leveraging the available space in your gallery or a museum.
Artwork Storage Rack is Meticulously Designed To Protect Artwork
Noting that most of the paintings are heavy and expensive, our art storage racks are carefully and innovatively designed to reduce vibrations and disturbance during artwork storage and retrieval process.
Made of stainless steel, the painting brackets are specially designed to hold the four sides of the artworks. Even if you move the panels, the brackets will hold the painting firmly in its place, ensuring the security for up to 25kg per bracket, i.e 100kg per artwork frame. You never have to worry about your paintings falling off the rack!
Besides that, the wire mesh panel is designed to have all vertical wires fitted in front of the horizontal wires. This simple but considerate design can help reduce vibration during artwork installation. Your artwork will not repeatedly slide against the horizontal grid which may cause irreversible damage when hanging heavy paintings.
Lastly, art collection should be environmentally controlled by a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. This is crucial to ensure a safe range of temperature and humidity for the artwork storage all year round. If artworks are not properly stored in the right controlled environment, they can easily decay and damage over time. This is undeniably a big concern for our hot and humid tropical weather.
