Choosing the right partner for intralogistics solutions among so many storage companies is a strategic decision that directly impacts productivity, operational costs and the ability to respond to the market.
It’s not enough to just think about your physical space; the focus should be on systems that optimize the use of your warehouse, ensure safety and offer scalability. After all, well-planned systems increase productivity and ensure better handling of goods.
In this regard, specialized companies make the difference. With more than five decades of experience, Bertolini Storage Systems offers complete solutions that include products, automation technologies and services.
This article explores how to identify the best partner for your intralogistics needs and how Bertolini relies on this expertise to support your operations.
The importance of efficient storage solutions
Storage solutions are the foundation of intralogistics efficiency. When properly planned, they allow:
- Maximize available space: Systems such as pallet racks and drive-in are designed to utilize vertical and horizontal space intelligently.
- Reduce operational errors: Automation and advanced technologies minimize human errors, optimizing the separation and movement of goods.
- Increase responsiveness: In periods of high demand, robust systems ensure agility and accuracy.
A practical example is the Cervosul case, one of the largest distributors of medicines and perfumes in the South of Brazil. With a storage project developed by Bertolini, the company doubled its production capacity in the same physical space, optimizing processes and increasing operational efficiency.
What to Consider When Choosing Storage Solutions
Products: efficiency, durability and adaptability
Selecting the right products is one of the first steps. Systems such as pallet trucks, Drive-in and Flow Rack should be chosen according to the specific needs of your business.
Here are some examples of important solutions:
- Pallet trucks: Guarantee quick and selective access to each pallet, being ideal for diversified operations.
- Drive-in: Maximize the use of space in operations with high storage density.
- Flow rack: Optimize picking by reducing order separation time.
- Mobile bases: Reduce the need for aisles, expanding the useful area of the warehouse.
- Cantilever: Designed for long or bulky items such as sheets and tubes.
Node Valdir Saraiva Group case study, for example, Bertolini Sistema de Armazenagem delivered a customized fractional picking solution to Dimacol, one of the group's companies.
This technology, which integrates LED and intelligent software, has brought more precision and agility to operations, positioning the company for scalable growth in the coming years.
How to evaluate a supplier's products?
- Make sure materials, such as galvanized steel, are sturdy and strong.
- Evaluate the adaptability of systems to changes in product mix or growth in operations.
- Look for companies with a diversified portfolio and proven experience.
Automation: technology to maximize productivity
In a scenario of high demand for efficiency, automation plays a central role. Always look for automated systems that can integrate tools such as:
- Shuttle systems (satellite car): Optimize storage density, operating at multiple depths with FIFO and LIFO principles.
- Industrial transporters: They speed up internal transport, connecting sectors in a fluid manner.
- WMS (Warehouse Management System): Management system that integrates inventories, order tracking and resource allocation in real time.
These technologies allow:
- Reduction of manual errors.
- Increased order processing speed.
- Better use of space and less need for human intervention.
Services: security and customization
In addition to offering products and technology, look for a company with specialized services that complement storage solutions. Among them are:
- Technical consultancy: Development of customized layouts that optimize logistics flow and increase efficiency.
- In-company training: Training teams for the operation and maintenance of structures, ensuring safety and compliance with standards.
- Safety inspection: Technical monitoring of structures, with risk analysis and suggestions for improvements.
