Farrall’s Group divide large warehouse for multiple uses
Sector: Warehousing & Logistics
Company: Farral’s Group
Location: Deeside
Overview: Flexiwall for adaptable warehouse partitioning
Solution: Flexiwall
Farrall’s Group, a national logistics network offering expert transport and warehouse solutions, approached Westgate Global due to a change in their storage needs at their Deeside Industrial Park warehouse.
An existing client had requested the need to store additional products and therefore Farrall’s Group needed to accommodate these products within their existing warehouse space. The decision was made to separate the warehouse and loading areas, which were currently one large space, into two sections.
Westgate Global were one of three businesses approached to consider and advise on the requirement. Farrall’s Group selected Westgate Global due to their professional approach, extensive experience delivering multiple solutions for this type of project with other clients in the warehousing sector, the robust nature of their specialised Flexiwall partitioning product and the ability to use specialised anti-fungal fabric.
FR680 anti-fungal fabric is essential in the warehouse and food sector when adhering to BRC accreditation. Flexiwall can help prevent dust movement, noise control, manage temperature and avoid cross contamination, making Westgate Global’s Flexiwall partition the ideal solution in warehousing environments.
Spectra needed a way to segregate their manufacturing site in Suffolk, specifically creating segregation between production and storage areas.
Westgate Global provided a Flexiwall partition that was 20m wide x 5.6 – 7.8m high with a curved roof. Spectra made it clear that the structure needed to be very corporate, with the colours matching their existing brand colours. One of the many benefits of using Flexiwall is that it’s very easy to provide corporate colours and branding to ensure consistency.
Flexiwall can be installed between racking and can fit into any space. Whilst Flexiwall is a permanent solution, it is also adaptable to change and therefore can be relocated to suit future developments within Farrall’s Group warehouse if the need arises.
Flexiwall can fit any height and any width due to the way the panels are manufactured and pieced together. In this instance the Flexiwall partition installed was 36m wide x 8m high.
Farrall’s Group also requested a smart, corporate looking partition that reflected their brand, so Westgate Global suggested using red with a yellow border on the bottom section of the partition and white fabric on the top section. Westgate Global have a range of fabric colour options available and can also print company logos or images too.
Two Fastflex doors (4.5m wide x 3.5m high) and one sliding pedestrian door were also incorporated into the Flexiwall, to allow easy and safe access from one section of the warehouse to the other.
Although Flexiwall is quick to install, this particular project was carried out over several weeks to accommodate the customer at their convenience.
