GEORGE WESTON & SONS
Meca Racking Solutions recently completed a replacement project for George Weston & Sons in Queensland, where an existing pallet racking system was configured with insufficient capacity for its cubic volume resulting in reduced usage and constant monitoring of system.
George Weston & Sons is one of Queensland's leading non-ferrous metal suppliers specialising in all types of copper based alloys, specialist metals, mainly brass and copper sheeting and bar products. The business was using an alternate cantilever system for storage and dispatch in their main warehouse facility however the system was under engineered and lacked the required capacity for the day-to-day business.
Meca Racking Solutions, on review of the requirements of the product and business, replaced the system with a heavy duty, 60 tone capacity Cantilever system with more capacity than cubic volume providing George Weston & Sons increased efficiency and a safer structure for current business needs with the capacity for future growth.
Robert Lund, Manager of George Weston & Sons said “The new warehouse configuration has solved our storage problem with its superior design and weight holding capacity and at the same time created a safer environment for our staff. It has increased our holding capacity and stream lined our receiving ability.”
Having reviewed the businesses concerns and warehouse functions, Meca Racking consultants were able to provide a complete warehouse storage solution for George Weston & Sons that will ensure their products can successfully be stored today and into their next growth stages.
