Storage for 5 million garments
December 1st 2009

CI Logistics has recently completed installation of Quodeck garment hanging, racking and shelving at a new distribution centre for Dimensions Clothing in Long Eaton, Nottingham. Consisting of four warehouses, the facility has the capacity to store up to 5 million garments.

In one warehouse, garments are unloaded from lorries using a telescopic boom then transported into the hanging storage area by Quodeck's Slictrac elevator, then into bulk storage.

On the ground floor CI Logistics has installed a longspan pick face shelving system with open steel mesh shelves and dividers for cartons. The longspan shelving supports the upper floor, which is devoted to bulk garment storage for 200,000 items.

The garments are stored three levels high in a Quodeck Hook-In garment structure.

CI Logistics has also erected a mezzanine floor, fire enclosed staircases and suspended ceilings, as well as supplying collapsible stillages and packing benches.
