Storage – the small stuff
When you think about storage, people tend to think about pallets and huge heavy items yet it is not just these larger items that need storing – in every warehouse and business there are smaller items to be kept as well and putting them on a pallet can result in lost or damaged stock as it just is not ideal.
Small parts storage is a range of really adaptable products especially designed to bring some order to the chaos that comes from storing small parts. These can include storage items such as containers, feeder trolleys, plastic drawers and more. Each and any of these items can be used on their own of alternatively they can be combined together to make a full storage system. For the industrial workplace these items could include screws, nuts and bolts, or for the retail industry it could be tags, hooks and pricing items.
A great benefit of using this sort of storage system is that it makes organising these items simple enough that stock rotation or stock checking becomes a much easier task – as opposed to looking at a pile of small parts and taking a wild guess.
Using louvred panels is particularly attractive for many warehouses because these mean that containers can be hung on them – making use of valuable space that could otherwise be wasted. Alternatively plastic drawer units can be stored in the storeroom of factory workshop.
By exploring all the storage options open to you, you can make the most of your storage space and save time and money – just what every business needs in the recession.
