Making growth more affordable
August 1st 2009 Continued growth at van
and truck mounted access
platforms manufacturer,
Versalift has necessitated
additional space at peak
times and, to keep costs as
low as possible, the firm
uses temporary buildings
from Spaciotempo to
provide a flexible and cost
effective solution.
During the latter half of
2008 the company required
a short term building to
increase the production
facilities for assembling and
mounting their famous
access platforms on to
various sizes of vans and
trucks. Located adjacent to
the main factory, the 10 x
25m building was fitted
with a roller door at each
end to create a drive
through production line
with vehicles arriving at one
end leaving the other with a
fully fitted platform.
With separate doors
provided for personnel –
ensuring that all health and
safety requirements were
rigidly adhered to – the
building was also installed
with heating and lighting for
a comfortable working
environment. Erected and
dismantled by the team at
Spaciotempo to very short
deadlines, Dave Ruffett
production manager at
Versalift, is impressed.
"The flexible nature of
temporary buildings suits us
very well as a company and
Spaciotempo is always
accommodating of our
needs," he says. "Most
importantly, they react very
quickly once we have placed
an order for a building. This
saves us the time and
expense of constructing a
new building that may only
be used partially during the
year". More articles from Spaciotempo UK Ltd: |
