SIMPLIFYING TRAFFIC
AND STORAGE
Why organize traffic and storage in your factory, your warehouse?
Because it can help you increase productivity, reduce workplace accidents, keep inventory up to date, and optimize your storage capacity. Here are some tips to help you simplify traffic and storage in your business.
First of all, you have to manage the flow of machinery and products. Depending on your needs and the space you have, make sure to:
- the layout of the racks: optimize the space by creating necessary areas
- the location of the products according to their frequency of sale or internal use
- loading and unloading areas for your goods
Then, you will be able to clearly delineate the spaces you have set up. Standardization is the key to optimization. So be consistent in choosing your floor marking or signage so that your employees quickly and without possible error understand where they should go, pick up or drop off what they need.
Different solutions are available at Factopsis:
- aerial panels to visualize the different workshops, the different areas easily
- marking on the ground in order to materialise the traffic zones of the machines or individuals, the locations of the products, pallets or machines, etc.
- various display media to present the rules implemented to all your employees. This ensures that your company’s standards are met.
Adhesive tape for floor marking
Different ranges are available at Factopsis to adapt to your environment. In a classic industrial environment with frequent passing of machines, we recommend category 3. We offer different colors, you choose the one you deem suitable for your situation. 1 rule is to be observed: choose a marking on the floor that differs from the color of your floor! Although you can do what you want in terms of colors, some uses have become more common: yellow or white for areas of passage of vehicles or storage, yellow/black hatching for dangerous areas, blue for pedestrians, white/red hatching for fire prevention, white/green for sanitation/health, red for rebus and green for recycling.
Adhesive shape for floor marking
Our forms are designed to be the most effective in your workshops. Angles or T allow the identification of locations such as pallets, wagons or other vehicles. The dots or bands allow to materialize lines without which are complete.
This is very useful when you have a high risk of stripping the marking off the ground. For the choice of colors, set standards within your company to keep consistency between the workshops and with your ground plotting.
Bring additional information to your teams with signage on the ground. From simple pictograms to indicate locations, an obligation, a prohibition or a danger, to the half-circles indicating the prohibited storage areas, we offer a range adapted to the industrial universe. Depending on your needs, you can also order custom prints from us.
Customised panel
Visually identify workshops, workstations… with our custom panels, create a simple yet visual communication to guide your employees at a glance. Choose the size according to the reading distance required for the panel and the number of sides according to the possible reading directions (front, front/back, 3 or 4 sides). Count 3 to 6 cm of character height for a distance of 2 m. 8 to 14 cm for a distance of 5m; 20 cm for a distance of 6 m.
