Trail blazing application

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Schoolwear specialist, David Luke has selected LB Foster Materials Handling to design, manufacture and install a hanging garment system for 140,000 Eco Blazers.

The six tier solution with integral walkways maximises the 10,000ft2 of space in David Luke’s new Manchester warehouse.

Manufactured from LB Foster’s own proven garment racking system, Hook-In, combined with manually operated slick rail, the storage solution been configured into two levels. The upper level features integral walkways which are accessed by three strategically located staircases, as well as a new access into the existing first floor office block.

Blazers are automatically transported up and down the levels using a garment elevator which was moved by LB Foster from an existing warehouse. To ensure the safety of operatives working on the upper floor, netting covers all first floor hanging bays.
