Why are industry-specific solutions important in warehouse logistics?

Industry-specific storage solutions are essential for many reasons. Different products have different requirements in terms of storage type, services as well as packaging materials and load carriers, which must be taken into account.

Warehouse types

Depending on the type of goods, it may be necessary, for example, to store them in a warehouse for cold storage, hazardous goods or temperature-controlled storage. It is therefore important to find a warehouse service provider that can cover the appropriate type of storage. No matter if you distribute consumer goods, produce textiles, food or electronics: In every industry, there are special features that need to be taken into account when it comes to storage.

Services

This also applies to special services, whose necessity and scope can vary depending on the industry. Therefore, when selecting a logistics service provider, you should focus on industry solutions in order to be able to cover all additional services. eCommerce companies in particular may have special requirements for picking and packing in order to ensure optimum customer satisfaction.

Packaging materials and load carriers

The type of pallets and packaging materials used can also differ. In addition to the widely used Euro pallet, for example, the CP pallet is most frequently used in the chemical industry and the hygienic pallet (H-pallet) in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Bulk goods from the construction industry are transported and stored in big bags.
