Increasing Efficiency and Future-Proofing: STOROJET in Use at a Sporting Goods Mail Order Company in the Ruhr Area

The STOROJET system occupies a footprint of only 400 square meters yet provides space for around 7,300 load carriers. This efficient use of space allows the company to store a wide range of products, particularly sports textiles, in a compact and organized manner. The system’s compact design made it possible to expand storage capacity without costly structural modifications – a crucial advantage in a region where available space is often limited.

A special highlight of the system are the individually customizable load carriers based on wooden boards, with a footprint of up to 50 by 90 centimeters, which could be perfectly tailored to the company’s requirements. The company chose to equip the load carriers with a simple edge frame, allowing textiles to be stored directly in their outer cartons. This simple but effective solution eliminates the need for unpacking and repackaging, enabling goods to be shipped directly from storage. This not only saves time but also conserves resources by significantly reducing packaging material consumption.

The decision to implement the STOROJET system was not only about efficiency but also a strategic response to current challenges. Like many other companies in the logistics industry, the sporting goods mail order company faces a growing shortage of skilled workers. Finding qualified staff is becoming increasingly difficult, forcing companies to design work processes that are more efficient and less labor-intensive. This is where STOROJET’s automated processes come in. The system takes over time-consuming tasks such as organizing and providing goods, relieving employees for other activities.
