Efacec to expand in South East Asia with three partnerships
The three separate projects will see Efacec customising and implementing a series of advanced material handling solutions, including the Aisle-Switching Technology, Automatic Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS), Finished Goods Transport System, and Radio-Frequency Identification technology (RFID).
“We are thrilled by the accelerating growth momentum we’ve gathered in South East Asia,” said Pedro Furtado, projects director, Efacec.
“These three projects span across different industries and gives Efacec an opportunity to showcase the ability of our full suite of warehousing. Efacec has been operating in Asia Pacific for more than 20 years, and we believe these projects will boost our development in the region.”
In the first project, Efacec will provide a transport system for PT Smart TBK to deliver finished goods from the production facility to the main warehouse for storage purposes. For this facility, Efacec configured a system that directly interfaces with production by consolidating different production lines into a centralised conveyor system. The line is then connected to the main warehouse via pallet lifters, before separating into two climate-controlled storage areas.
For Lian Hock, a hardware provider for the marine, engineering, and construction industries, it will implement its ASRS solution for pallets and bins, featuring an aisle-switching technology and RFID system to its new warehouse in the western part of Singapore.
Finally, a global print partner of international publishers has asked Efacec to implement an ASRS for its facility in Singapore to increase business productivity. The ASRS system supports the pre-production storage of raw materials, pre-shipment storage of finished goods, and supplements picking and storage operations for the client’s documents.
