Mallard Manufacturing announces opening of Iowa carton flow rack production facility
July 10, 2019 - Mallard Manufacturing, a manufacturer of gravity flow storage products, announced the opening of a production facility in Maquoketa, Iowa. The 30,000 sq. foot facility opened its doors on July 1st, 2019 as a dedicated carton flow rack manufacturing site. The need for the facility is largely due to the increased market demand for carton flow rack to handle faster, smaller, more customized order fulfillment.
All six types of Mallard carton flow will be produced in the Iowa facility. The style selected by customers is mostly dependent upon the size and style of inventory that will be stored in the flow system. Dyna-Flo is a leading wheeled carton flow product from Mallard and Cart-Trak is their leading roller system. Wheeled systems accommodate inventory of different sizes within the same picking bay, whereas roller systems are more suited for same-sized inventory. Mallard’s Dyna-Flo HD is for cases, cartons, packaging or totes weighing up to 50 lbs. per item. Beverage, wine & spirits, dairy are often prime HD inventory.
Other Mallard carton flow products include Dyna-Deck which is a replacement system for old or ineffective carton flow products, Flo-Guide which is a flanged-wheel system for items that might shift in the lane, and economy products Rack-Trak and Econ-Flo.
