If your company currently has a keystone/republic system or you need a strong strength-to-weight ratio, this solution may work best for you.
In a keystone system, the columns feature solid corners, and keystone clips are inserted into the areas of least stress so that the system can bear a high load capacity. The unique design decreases the overall amount of stress on a pallet system and protects against injury and product damage because if torn metal. A keystone pallet rack also uses U-shaped braces in a Z-pattern to add increased strength.
