Special Report: Maximizing space, gaining efficiency

In light of the growth of e-commerce-and the fact that consumers and businesses are buying again, many of the discussions that we had at ProMat 2015 didn’t revolve around the products and the equipment on display as much as it did the supplemental technology and solutions that are designed to optimize systems in an effort to work “smarter.”

With goods moving off the shelves at such a breakneck pace, warehouse and distribution center (DC) managers are now under more pressure than ever to carve out space and optimize throughput in the face of a stronger digital economy. In most cases, the goal is to maximize storage capacity and labor productivity within the same footprint—and do it without breaking the bank.

In this special report, we have collected stories designed to help warehouse and DC managers gain a better understanding of how to meet the pressing e-commerce and subsequent omni-channel fulfillment challenge by putting solutions to work that will maximize existing space you and bring labor efficiency to a whole new level.
