Warehouse Management

The management of any warehouse/store needs an effective code labelling and identification system. Stock needs to be identified and in its rightful place in order to maximise order picking and minimise costly errors.
It is understood that many order pickers working in an environment where an ineffective system operates, waste a large proportion of their time trying to pick goods that are not in their place. This also leads to an increase in picking errors.
These errors hurt every aspect of the business as not only does it lead to having to re-process the order and re-despatch taking up lots of precious time, but it could also lower customer retention.

Location labelling systems

For many SMEs having a fully barcoded order-picking system doesn’t seem feasible due to costs and as a result, most businesses retain their existing systems which often become antiquated as a result of changes in product, market fluctuations and warehouse practices.
A small outlay to produce a racking labelling system can help in achieving lower picking times, reduce errors and often help in increasing customer satisfaction.
Beaverswood manufactures all kinds of location labels, for racking, shelving, bins and anything that needs a location. The labels can be printed with alphanumeric codes, check digits, barcodes and colour level identification, check out our labelling options in our Labelling Guide.
