Synsus Warehouse Lakeland

The Challenge

When Synsus Private Label acquired a new distribution facility in Lakeland, Florida, they needed a complete warehouse layout solution to support higher inventory volume, improve operational flow, and ensure safe and efficient material handling. To meet these goals, they partnered with Atlantic Rack to design and equip the facility with a fully optimized storage and loading system. The project included selective pallet racking, edge-of-dock levelers, and pallet rack safety accessories, each playing a key role in transforming the new warehouse into a high-performance operation.

Selective Pallet Racks

The installation of selective pallet racking provided Synsus Private Label with a flexible and highly accessible storage solution ideal for a fast-moving warehouse environment. This system allows direct access to every pallet position, significantly improving picking efficiency and reducing product retrieval times. It also offers scalability, enabling the company to adjust rack configurations as inventory demands evolve.

By maximizing vertical storage space while maintaining clear accessibility, the selective racking system helped improve overall space utilization and operational productivity.

Rack Protection Equipment

To ensure long-term warehouse safety and protect both personnel and infrastructure, pallet rack safety accessories were integrated throughout the facility. These included upright protectors, end-of-aisle guards, and column protection systems designed to absorb impact from forklifts and reduce damage to rack structures. These enhancements not only extend the lifespan of the racking system but also significantly reduce the risk of costly accidents and product loss.

For Synsus Private Label, this added layer of protection reinforced a safer working environment and supported compliance with warehouse safety best practices.

Edge of Dock Levelers

To streamline loading and unloading operations, Atlantic Rack installed edge-of-dock levelers at the warehouse loading bays. These levelers provide a smooth transition between dock and trailer, improving safety and efficiency during material handling. Unlike traditional pit levelers, edge-of-dock solutions are compact and cost-effective, making them ideal for facilities with space constraints or lighter-to-medium duty loading requirements.

For Synsus Private Label, this upgrade reduced loading time, minimized manual handling risks, and improved the overall flow of inbound and outbound shipments.

Project Outcome

  • Improved storage density through efficient use of vertical space with selective pallet racking
  • Enhanced inventory accessibility, allowing direct reach to every pallet location for faster picking and restocking
  • Better SKU organization and control, supporting accurate inventory rotation and tracking
  • Increased warehouse safety by reducing congestion and improving aisle clarity for forklift movement
  • Stronger rack durability with protective systems that help reduce impact-related damage in high-traffic zones
  • Improved equipment protection at aisle ends and critical contact points
  • Safer and smoother dock operations through edge-of-dock levelers that stabilize trailer-to-floor transitions
  • Faster loading and unloading cycles, improving overall shipping and receiving efficiency
