Optimised workflow for a leading supermarket chain with Profielnorm mezzanine solutions
A leading supermarket chain sought to optimise its space utilisation and operational efficiency. Partnering with a system integrator and automation specialists, we had the opportunity to assist in enhancing their state-of-the-art distribution centre.
We designed and implemented specialised constructions capable of withstanding the dynamic forces generated by heavy pallet conveyors and automated systems. To ensure seamless integration, the project was managed in multiple phases, covering both delivery and on-site construction. Meticulous on-site project management was essential to prevent interference between different work crews and to keep the project on schedule.
Our engineering team developed custom mezzanine solutions equipped with robust structural elements to support the demanding automation requirements. Expert installation ensured alignment with customer specifications and smooth integration with the existing infrastructure. Our Profielnorm mezzanine floors allowed for significant space savings by efficiently accommodating automated systems and heavy pallet handling equipment efficiently.
This project included 1,500m2 of chipboard and 2,100m2 of grating mezzanine floors. We also integrated 4 catwalks, spanning 26 metres each, and 12 cage ladders for safe access. Additionally, lifts and shuttle systems on top were seamlessly incorporated into our mezzanines.
In short the benefits for this customer:
- Enhanced efficiency: automated palletising and depalletising processes optimised operational workflows, reducing manual handling and improving throughput.
- Space optimisation: mezzanine floors effectively utilised vertical space within the distribution centre, eliminating the need for expansive floor expansions.
- Operational reliability: reliable support structures and integrated automation systems ensured consistent performance and minimised downtime.
Profielnorm’s successful completion of the automated distribution centre project for the supermarket chain underscores our capability to deliver complex mezzanine floor solutions. By leveraging our expertise in customer engineering and precise installation, we enabled our customer to achieve enhanced operational efficiency and maximise their warehouse space effectively.
