Tilt shelves present the product to the picker, rather than forcing awkward reaching, stretching and bending. Even for slow moving items, this can add up to reduced injuries and strains. Ergonomic improvements add up over time, and also pair with productivity increases, as making the physical task of picking a carton easier or a few seconds faster means the process is safer and better every time through the future, which can be hundreds of times every month and thousands of times a year.
