LIFO dynamic storage for cold rooms: PRODEX’s solution for pharmaceutical logistics

As a specialist in custom logistics solutions, particularly for the pharmaceutical industry, PRODEX designs, manufactures and installs an innovative range of dynamic storage systems based on the LIFO principle (Last In, First Out). These systems are specifically engineered to optimise pharmaceutical order picking in cold-room environments, while ensuring full compliance with drug storage and temperature control standards.

Dynamic storage racking systems optimised for cold chain logistics

In the pharmaceutical industry, precise temperature control is a critical factor in ensuring the integrity of sensitive products. This is why PRODEX has developed a range of cold room racking systems specifically designed to meet the constraints of refrigerated storage.
These dynamic storage systems enable optimised flow of bins or cartons through a gravity-driven roller system, while facilitating easy access and product rotation based on the LIFO (Last In, First Out) principle.

PRODEX racking systems are widely used in pharmaceutical laboratories, hospitals and pharmaceutical distribution platforms to ensure fast, ergonomic and health-and-safety-compliant order picking.

Custom-designed for maximum efficiency

The PRODEX LIFO range is fully customisable to adapt to the specific layout of your cold rooms. Our systems are available in 3-, 4- or 5-door configurations, depending on your logistics flows and the volumes to be handled.

Each racking level can support loads of up to 60 kg/m², evenly distributed, ensuring high robustness for pharmaceutical bins.
The structures are designed using materials compatible with cold-room environments (typically operating at temperatures between +2 °C and +8 °C), offering resistance to humidity and thermal fluctuations.

Our technical teams work from your drawings and layout constraints to design a custom refrigerated dynamic racking system that is durable, functional and fully compliant with current regulations.

Comprehensive logistics solutions for healthcare professionals

Beyond dynamic storage systems, PRODEX, part of the MAVENTIS Group, also designs a wide range of logistics solutions, including powered conveyors (belt or roller conveyors), drawer racking systems and other equipment specifically developed for sensitive environments.

Our conveyors can be integrated with temperature-controlled order picking workstations, with options for computerised management, batch tracking and ergonomic features designed to reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among operators.

All installations are custom-manufactured in our factory located in Bourgbarré, Brittany, near Rennes. We control the entire value chain, from design and manufacturing through to on-site installation throughout France.
