Grid
Our Lightest, Most Scalable Grid for Unmatched Cubic Storage Capacity and System Efficiency.
Customer demand, efficient space utilization, rising real estate costs, inventory security, and insurance premiums. All are key factors in selecting a cost-effective storage solution that scales with any fulfillment operation.
Our tall grid yields 33-51% more vertical storage capacity per floor than the leading alternative cubic ASRS. Stackable to 21 bins high (7.6m) in a 12m warehouse, you can maximize your vertical space to store more inventory (within different temperature zones), and reduce (or better leverage) your footprint and fixed costs.
Its modular construction means it can quickly and easily be installed into almost any greenfield or brownfield facility, of any size or shape; even on multiple stories or in seismic regions, with bin lifts able to connect the grid across floors.
A unique double-track layout supports our patented single-cell robot design to maximize routing efficiency and productivity. The new, ultra-lightweight robot frame allows for a lower-cost grid design and minimizes long-term structural wear and tear.
Bin containment within the grid provides outstanding security - key for high-value or hazardous items. In conjunction with our new metal bins, our grid offers a revolutionary new global standard on fire risk containment - improving storage density and lowering infrastructure and insurance costs.
Key Features
The grid sits at the heart of the Ocado Storage and Retrieval System (OSRS). It's a light, flexible, modular structure, assembled in as little as two weeks and designed to maximize and secure your inventory storage within densely stacked bins.
