Some impressions of our customer solution
Project brief
The BITO Solution
Multi-storey shelving system with shelving racks, pallet racks and BITOBOXES
» The agricultural machinery manufacturer now uses BITO SL86 large-volume containers sized 800 x 600 mm to store their varied range of very heavy components.
Two multi-storey shelving systems with 21,500 shelves, pallet racks with a capacity of 2,000 pallet spaces and 5,000 reusable containers MBD64321 Eco.
» With half the size of a conventional pallet, two 800 x 600 mm SL containers can be stored on the footprint of one mesh box pallet.
Multi-storey shelving unit with three levels and a total shelf area of 11,426 m² and a stage area of 4,944 m²
» SL 86 large volume containers can be stacked on top of each other, allowing more boxes to be placed in the same space.
Pallet racks for Euro pallets weighing 750 and 1,100 kg
» The generous internal volume allows significantly more components to be stored in the same space than was previously possible.
Customer benefits
In what way has the BITO solution helped our customer to realise their full potential?

- Efficient storage system for all items
- Maximum use of space with shelving on several levels
- MB reusable containers made from recycled material are not only an environmentally friendly option. Nested also saves you an enormous amount of space during return transport.
Our goal was to increase storage capacity to ensure the availability of goods in the region while supporting Hostivice's central warehouse. The entire project was carried out with BITO, our partner, with whom we have already implemented several other projects. It was the biggest project for us in recent years.
