Variable glide systems for the retail trade

The POS‑T VARUS glide system, with its unique surface, is the ideal system to let your products slide forward smoothly, even with a mini­mal incli­na­tion of the shel­ves. This system is parti­cu­larly suita­ble for products with a fixed stand such as bever­a­ges, glas­ses and canned food. It can also be used in plus refri­ge­ra­tion without any problems — so you reduce shelf main­ten­ance for fast-moving items such as yogurt pots and milk cartons.

That’s what makes our product guidance system so special

The POS‑T VARUS glide system makes use of gravity. Instead of a clas­sic push­feed system, which works with diffe­rent spring strengths and the resul­ting pushing force, the glide system only requi­res a glide mat. On this mat, even heavy and bulky products such as drinks or canned goods slide opti­mally and evenly to the front of the shelf. Thanks to the precis­ely calcu­la­ted incli­na­tion on which the products slide forwards, it is also ensu­red that the goods are moved safely and unda­ma­ged. The conti­nuous front presen­ta­tion saves time and person­nel costs and offers a perfect shop­per expe­ri­ence.

Front presentation by gravity

How the gentle gliding system works for your products

Gravity, or the force of attrac­tion, mani­fests itself in the mutual attrac­tion of masses. In simple terms, on earth this means that bodies fall towards the center of the earth. We use this force for our POS‑T VARUS glide system: the products are placed on a kind of ramp which, toge­ther with the VARUS mat, func­tions like a slide. Thanks to the special mate­rial compo­si­tion and a precis­ely calcu­la­ted angle of incli­na­tion, the products only slide as fast as the weight of the goods allows. The front panel atta­ched to the front of the shelf stops the product gently and safely.

A so-called shelf divi­der ensu­res that the product rows are orga­ni­zed and subdi­vi­ded. This also keeps the goods stable.
The glide profile makes use of gravity and gently moves heavy or bulky products to the front of the shelf. The precise angle of incli­na­tion prevents damage.
The front profile can be orde­red in diffe­rent heights and prevents the goods from falling out.
With a cool curve — our VARUS curve nest­les perfectly against the round bott­les and allows them to slide gently onto the neigh­bor­ing side.
