Containers for Automated Warehouses
Monoflo International has introduced two containers engineered to bring efficiency and durability to automated warehouse operations: the Foldable Stack-Only (FSO) container and Dual Base Stack-Only (SO) container.
With a 4:1 storage ratio, the FSO container (shown) offers up to a 75% freight reduction and requires a significantly smaller storage footprint for space-constrained facilities. This new design is engineered to maintain structural integrity and to work interchangeably with fixed-wall containers.
The SO container is a one-piece, injection-molded design engineered specifically for automation-driven warehouse environments. Building on the spider-base container designs widely used in European logistics systems, the SO container features smooth interior and exterior surfaces suitable for fresh food and sanitation-sensitive automation applications. The textured conveyance bottom and angled rib geometry are engineered to improve conveyance and reduce system noise in high-throughput operations.
