Warehouse Shelving Collapse Due to Improper Installation Collapse

All right so what we’re looking at here is a supermarket in Brazil. What you’re going to start to see here is due to improper installation of these warehousing racks that are being used as shelves in the stores.

Then the whole racking system starts to fail and has a cascading effect on the entire racking system. We see the people here returning back in there unfortunately there was a fatality in this accident.

Fatalities are the worst thing that could happen in these warehousing accidents and we try to prevent that loss of life or injuries more than anything else in these scenarios. The best that we could hope for is that we’ve only lost the inventory in our warehouse but of course, we want to try to prevent that.

Engineering is one of the key things that can prevent racking failure, to have the engineering specifications followed in great detail.
