It is reported that a BITO Storage
Systems solution has transformed
storage and order picking
operations at Spirax Sarco, manufacturer
and supplier of components
for industrial steam systems.

Every product Spirax Sarco ships
around the world is now picked from
a storage and order picking system
from BITO Storage Solutions. Based
system features pallet rack bulk
storage for large parts, 800 x 600mm
XL plastic Euro containers on meshed
shelving for medium parts and a
carton live system for small parts.

The carton live storage system has
two pick faces either side of the
picking aisle with four beds of flow
shelves on one side and five beds on
the other.

The whole system has been
designed to maximise flexibility,
health and safety, the number of pick
faces, speed of put away and picking,
and also to use space effectively. Its
modularity allows Spirax Sarco to
adapt to future inventory
requirements.
