Case Studies
Selective Rack + Cantilever Rack for Large Range of SKUs – A Case Study
A company needed a material handling system that could house their 13,000 SKUs which varied in shape and size. REB implemented a layout with different design elements to accommodate the SKUs while still providing high selectivity.
Flue Keeper Feature® – A Case Study
In order to maximize box storage without comprising adherence to fire codes, REB designed an order picker system with unique flue keeper and mid-span carton stop features. Learn how this solution ended up saving this records storage company over $300K and additional 20% savings on shelf material costs in this month's case study.
Selective Rack + Carton Flow Rack + Cantilever Rack – A Case Study
In this case study you will learn how REB designed a layout option to maximize a manufacturer's vertical storage for their new building expansion. This project was divided into two phases and consisted of selective, carton flow and cantilever racking systems to allow for storage of varying sizes to be easily accessed for faster picking.
Pallet Flow Rack + Custom Pallet Design – A Case Study
In this case study, REB provided design services for a customized pallet flow racking system for a manufacturing company.
Custom Drive-In Rack for Mattress Storage – A Case Study
A mattress manufacturer needed to move from an existing 270,000 sq. ft. facility to a 130,000 sq. ft. facility. We proposed a 2-deep drive-in racking system which increased storage density while allowing the manufacturer to continue using their existing lift equipment. The result was a layout that exceeded the current capacity without leasing a second location. Additionally, this solution estimated an annual real estate savings of $840K (based on $8/sq. ft.)
Rack System Relocation – A Case Study
A packaging supplier needed to expand and relocate their storage and distribution operation. To save the company money, REB provided a design with selective rack and wire decking that incorporated both new material as well as material from their existing racking system. This allows them to store larger quantities while expediting their picking and shipping processes.
