Project Summary: Design and installation of a highly efficient pick and pallet racking storage solution
SEC Storage has designed and installed a highly efficient pick and pallet racking storage solution at Midlands-based Nero Pipeline Connections, ensuring improved pick operations through swift replenishment of stock held in the additional pallet locations.
Nero Pipeline Connections is a market-leading distributor of stainless pipeline products and has been specialising in the supply of high-quality pipe fittings and valves for over 30 years, with a broad portfolio of products suitable for commercial and industrial environments.
Their warehouse facility had some existing racking in place which they’d steadily expanded as the company grew, however, this offered them mainly pick locations and only limited pallet storage capacity. The racking was also only 4m high and with the building offering 9m of height capacity, they were only utilising 50% of the available storage space.
Darryl Spencer-Hicks, Operations Director at Nero commented:
“Due to the significant ongoing growth of the business we needed a quick solution to ensure the flow of stock remained unhindered. With this in mind, we contacted SEC to design and project manage the re-racking of the warehouse with the minimalist disruption to Nero. As with any large project, things change and it is how they are dealt with. SEC went to great lengths to rectify any delays and this meant our customers saw no impact on their orders.
SEC worked alongside Toyota Material Handling to design the racking system to maximize the use of the warehouse space and worked with Systems Finance to deliver a cost-effective finance package with us.”
