Logistics operator Eddie Stobart Logistics Europe has equipped its warehouse in Genk (Belgium) with pallet racking by Mecalux. Versatility and strength are the key features of these racks, which unquestionably ensure the efficient storage of the material and clothing of a renowned sport firm.
Providing capacity for 51,975 pallets with a maximum unit weight of 433 kg, the 42,000 m2 installation is divided into three areas, all fitted out with 8.5-metre-high pallet racking spanning five storage levels. Forklifts move along the aisles, which measure up to 118 m long. These machines are charged with depositing and extracting goods nimbly from their locations, thanks to the direct access to them.
This solution enables Eddie Stobart to prepare orders quickly. Moreover, it guarantees the versatility and adaptability to products of varying sizes and demands that its client requires.
