Compatible and competitive
February 1st 2008 Car care and vehicle valeting
products provider, Autoglym,
has recently opened a global
distribution centre in
Letchworth Garden City. The
bespoke storage solution in
the facility, which consists of
wide aisle pallet racking,
pallet live storage lanes and
picking levels, has been
manufactured and installed
by LINPAC Storage
Systems.
Mark Evans, site manager
(logistics) at the 46,000ft2
facility, selected LINPAC from
a competitive tender of four
of the UK's leading storage
providers. "Although we were
ordering new racking, we
also wanted some existing
LINPAC racking moving to the
new premises," says Evans.
"We chose to award the
contract to LINPAC because
they offered the most
professional service, a
competitive price and, of
course, the racking was
compatible."
Bulk stock is housed on
five levels of wide aisle pallet
racking and accessed by
reach trucks. There is a
separate section of the
warehouse for hazardous
products, which are also
stored on pallet racking.
To store the smallest items
in the Autoglym range,
chipboard picking shelves
have been installed by
LINPAC in the ground floor
bays. More articles from Linpac Storage Systems Limited: |
