Transforming Warehouse Shelving into a Semi-Automatic System
Customer Journey: From Traditional to State-of-the-Art Storage Solutions
Facing the evolving challenges of efficient warehouse management, Prestige has cultivated expertise in guiding customers through the transition from conventional static syste advanced automation solutions. A recent collaboration showcases this journey - an ongoing project with a client utilizing a 3,200 square-foot two-level shelving system featuring robust Hallowell closed shelving capable of supporting up to 600 pounds per level, complemented by 48” wide x 24” deep shelves.
Equipped with two sets of external U-shaped strcases and pallet landings on both sides, this system has served as an efficient hub for product storage over several years. The ResinDek gray flooring not only enhances durability but also provides a professional appearance to the warehouse space.
Addressing Future Needs
The client approached Prestige seeking solutions to address their current limitations:
How can we accommodate expected growth in bulk storage?
Can we increase operational throughput?
Is there a way to ensure precise item retrieval every time?
How do we promote ergonomic practices among our employees?
What measures can be taken to secure highly classified items?
Given the 37 feet clearance and the potential benefits, Prestige recommed transitioning from two-level warehouse shelving system to Modula Vertical Lift Modules VLMs. This partnership will not only reduce the footprint by about 80 but also repurpose one full-time employee for other roles within the facility.
Disassembly Reuse of Existing System
To prepare this transition, our in-house team is tasked with dismantling the existing shelving and mezzanine structure. The system's excellent condition enables us to repurpose it as part of our used inventory portfolio, offering customers an affordable option while minimizing waste.
The Benefits of a Used Warehouse Shelving System
Purchasing a used system offers several advantages:
Cost Efficiency - Opting for pre-owned shelving systems can significantly reduce costs compared to new installations, allowing businesses to focus their resources on other operational enhancements.
Quick Installation - Our dismantled and reassembled systems can be installed more quickly than custom orders, ensuring minimal downtime in warehouse operations and faster access to additional storage space.
Environmental Responsibility - By repurposing existing structures instead of producing new ones, we support a sustnable approach that reduces the demand for raw materials and energy consumption during manufacturing.
