Case Study

Project: Loading Bay for Mitchell Powersystems

Challenge: As Mitchell Powersystems evolved, they faced challenges with their outdated building, leading to a need for additional loading bay facilities to optimise warehouse space.

Solution: Smart-Space provided a 20 by 25 metre open-ended covered loading bay, a lightweight permanent steel structure clad in ocean blue panels. This solution enables covered loading and unloading, increases outdoor storage, and optimises space for efficient storage and stock management.

Outcome: The loading bay project increased capacity and improved operational efficiency while freeing up valuable warehouse space, allowing the company to better meet evolving business needs and streamline distribution processes.
