Our Very Narrow Aisle operational model condenses traditional aisle widths from 3M to nearly half at 1.7M. Ideal for small pick items (garment, pharmaceutical etc.) The configuration of shelving from the floor to 11M in the air, allows for previously unobtainable storage density. The wire guided ‘man up’ machinery delivers exceptional picking and placement productivity gains. When combined with “Put Arrays”, we are able to nearly half the costs that traditional processing models offer.

To give you an idea of how well this system works, high velocity “own store” pick/pack/dispatch of garments used to cost around 0.50 to 0.60/per garment. With this new model we are able to offer rates between 0.30 and 0.35 per garment and also means we are more future-proofed for our storage costs compared with other providers.
