Reducing energy consumption and increasing operational efficiency, is a critical plank in almost all business growth strategies today.
Organisations are leveraging new technologies and best practices to boost operational and production efficiencies, and thereby drive business transformation. Warehouse flow is an important element of this business process where companies are required to understand the day to day flow of within their operations, with greater transparency, before investing in facility improvement initiatives.
This is especially imperative with increases in energy costs which is expected to increase their operational expenses. With the increased overhead costs, this means of course, increased break-even targets and any saving that can be made from efficiency innovation and less energy use, will contribute straight to the bottom line. Choosing the right products for your facility comes into play here with high energy consumption and maintenance costs possibly indicating wastage when it is totally unnecessary.
How do automated products impact the bottom line of a business operation?
When there is no clarity on energy use patterns and time-consuming machinery/processes within a business operation, it leads to inefficiency and costly wastage, and inability to introduce efficiency measures. This lack of information increases the company’s risk exposure, resulting in higher costs and impacting profitability.
A simplistic overview of how innovation in productivity strategy could benefit your business could demonstrated in the example below:
- Warehouse facility A carried out an analysis of its operations, following the initial order through to manufacturing/processing through to packing and finally to delivery. They found that significant time could be saved by increasing the speed of their doors in which forklifts passed through 10 or more times throughout the course of the day. Additionally, aging and slow operating roller doors and sliding doors were accruing substantial maintenance and repair costs. The initial investment of installing new Rapid Roller Doors was high but the savings resulted in less time spent waiting for doors to open and because they automatically closed after the forklift passed through – this also meant reduced energy loss – especially in temperature controlled environments. Not only saving energy and increasing efficiency but also reduced contamination from dust and pests.In conclusion – an initial investment to replace all aging and slow roller shutters, saved costs in three ways resulting in a quick payback period for the initial investment and then reduced running costs for the business in the future.
Remax’s Rapid Door Solution
Energy optimisation is a data-driven process; unless the data on company-wide energy use is not collated, studied and analysed, the opportunities for optimisation and demand reduction will remain invisible. How do you cut costs if you don't know what is contributing to the costs?
With this in mind, the team at Remax have engineering and manufactured a range of Rapid Roller Doors suited to many different environments such as food processing, schools, manufacturing, logistics, Dairy and Agriculture, Medical, Meat and Poultry, frozen foods as well as car showrooms.
For smaller companies, often the cost of high speed doors is out of reach. However the all-new Movidor ES40 Rapid Roll Door by Remax offers a simple and durable fast roll-up door, -at up to 25% lower initial outlay than tradtional high speed doors.
