If you're storing large quantities of similar or identical goods, the CR18 Drive-in Pallet Racking can free-up as much as 90% of existing floor space, compared to conventional pallet storage.
Case Studies
With an increase in sales, the warehouse at the Ötigheim plant needed significantly more storage capacity. The warehouse also required modernising to become a more effective, high-density operational space.
Due to enormous company growth, Van Heugten Transport decided to build a new head office, complete with a warehouse.
In 1985, the first Jula department store, with combined head office and warehouse, opened in Skara, Sweden. The business expanded rapidly, and with that, its need for warehousing space and storage.
In consultation with the architectural firm, Constructor has created a very efficient design for the layout of the warehouse.
A cost/benefit analysis was carried out to evaluate the cost of time spent transporting tyres versus investing in a new storage facility.
Using their range of specially constructed products and accessories, Constructor Denmark’s compact storage solution with mobile tyre racking was the perfect system for AT Biler.
The Constructor team started by working out the best way to store each of the 40,000 items that C&G stock. As these can range in size from small parts to palletised loads and complete plumbing systems, the answer was to provide multiple solutions which worked together as one seamless solution.
The new shuttle installation has allowed for an increase in capacity; allowing the warehouse to hold 600 tonnes of raw material – a three-fold increase.
Santa Maria also required a remodelling of its ‘buffer zone’ Narrow Aisle system, to give it the flexibility to accommodate future expansion – plus a Shuttle system for its raw materials zone, to incorporate both FIFO (First-In, First-Out) and LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) storage principles.
The solution provided by Constructor has a hot dipped galvanized surface to the racking and a customised Pallet Shuttle that can work in either a cold or ambient environment.
The solution was to install two Constructor products that worked together seamlessly: Constructor Pallet racking in combination with Pallet Flow and Drive In with the Constructor Pallet Shuttle.
