Storage Overview

Efficient logistics rely on smart storage practices. Modern inventory control and ERP systems optimize space, ensuring goods remain secure and accessible. Cloud-based TOS, IoT tools, and AIS further enhance operational efficiency.

Types of Facilities

Logistics hubs use diverse storage methods. Cold storage keeps perishables fresh, while dry bulk and break-bulk facilities manage non-perishables. Hazardous materials demand safety measures and ISO compliance, crucial for depot safety.

Optimizing Space

High-density solutions like automated cranes and IoT-driven yard management improve capacity. Combining RFID and GPS ensures seamless item retrieval and better berth planning. Advanced tech aligns with KPI-driven goals.

Technology in Logistics

IoT, AIS, and cloud computing modernize storage. Digital ERP tools improve asset tracking, equipment control, and ETA monitoring. These systems enhance transparency and reduce operational costs.
