AR Racking boosts Brenntag Colombia’s logistics efficiency with new facility in Yumbo
The project was developed in the logistics centre of Brenntag Colombia, located in Yumbo, Valle del Cauca.
AR Racking has installed a pallet racking system in an area of 710 m², with capacity for 888 pallet positions.
AR Racking, a leading supplier of industrial storage solutions, has successfully completed the installation of a pallet racking system for Brenntag Colombia S.A., part of the Brenntag Group, a multinational company dedicated to the distribution of chemical products and ingredients and specialised services. This project was carried out in Brenntag’s logistics centre, located in Yumbo, Valle del Cauca.
The installed system, which covers a total area of 710 m² within the warehouse, allows a storage capacity of 888 pallet positions. AR Racking implemented a double-depth pallet racking system, specifically designed to optimise space and efficiency in the client’s logistics operations. The system has five levels of beams, with safety nets installed on the top level, providing direct access to the products and facilitating more agile inventory management.
‘This project has been an interesting challenge due to the need to maximise available space while ensuring that storage operations are highly efficient,’ said Edward Suescun, project manager at AR Racking. ‘With the installation of double-deep racking, we have managed to double the storage capacity per square metre, which will undoubtedly help Brenntag Colombia to optimise its operations.’
Brenntag Colombia S.A., is a leader in the distribution of chemical products in the country, serving a wide range of industries. Carlos Guaqueta, Head of Projects and Maintenance at Brenntag Colombia, said: ‘The solution provided by AR Racking has been key to improving our logistics capacity and the management of our products. The customised design and efficiency of the installation allows us to better respond to the demands of the market’.
This new storage system reinforces AR Racking’s commitment to providing high-performance logistics solutions for demanding industries such as the chemical industry. The company’s experience and technological innovation allow it to adapt each project to the specific needs of each customer, providing robust and efficient storage systems.
