Diverse handling

Polymer specialist Rehau has turned to Yale, and its authorised dealer Yale CZ, to manage its complete materials handling operation requirements in the Czech Republic.

Rehau's 9000m2 facility in Cestlice includes indoor and outdoor storage areas products ranging from small, expensive components to large window profiles up to 6.5m in length as well as large plastic tubes in various lengths and dimensions.

The solution was a fleet of four, five tonne lifting capacity Yale Veracity VAX forklift trucks fitted with double pallet handling attachments to allow multiple pallets to be moved simultaneously. The introduction of the new fleet has already had a significant effect on the logistics operation on the site, increasing operator efficiency and productivity.
