Key objectives
- Handling high volumes across finished products, packaging and raw materials
- Integrating temperature- and humidity-controlled areas
- Reducing handling times
- Limiting interference between operators
- Maintaining direct access to every pallet
- Ensuring flexibility in managing different pallet formats
Technical constraints and requirements
- Presence of temperature- and humidity-controlled areas
- Handling of several different load unit types
- The need to differentiate operating modes between areas
- Integration of manual and automated handling
- Warehouse organisation by functional area
Our solution
Key features
1. Dedicated areas and differentiated flow management
- A pallet racking system designed to support the storage of cosmetics, medical devices and food supplements.
- Warehouse layout divided into functional areas with different service levels.
- Separate management of raw materials, packaging and finished products according to specific operational requirements.
- Temperature- and humidity-controlled environments for the storage of sensitive products.
2. Integration between racking and flow automation
- Automated roller conveyors integrated into the areas with the highest handling intensity
- Automated pallet infeed and outfeed bays to reduce operational interference and improve flow continuity
- Combined use of VNA trilateral trucks, reach trucks and electric pallet trucks according to the different warehouse areas
- A system designed to maintain direct access to every pallet along with flexibility in managing different formats
3. Storage capacity and operational performance
- Over 13,000 pallet positions in the packaging area, served by trilateral trucks with static bays across 3 levels
- 4,522 pallet positions in the temperature- and humidity-controlled area for finished products
- Multi-format handling for 800×1200, 1000×1200 and 1200×1200 pallets
- A configuration designed to deliver better-ordered flows, shorter handling times and operational continuity across pharmaceutical and cosmetics logistics processes.

Key Benefits
Flows organised by functional area
Operational separation between finished products, packaging and raw materials, with differentiated management according to environmental conditions and handling methods.
Handling efficiency
Integration of manual handling and automation, with roller conveyors and IN-OUT bays supporting flows in the highest-intensity areas.
Integrated management of controlled-condition environments
Temperature- and humidity-controlled chambers for finished products, integrated with the remaining operational areas of the warehouse.
Flexibility in load unit management
The system is configured to handle pallets in several formats (800×1200 / 1000×1200 / 1200×1200) while maintaining direct access and operational continuity.
