A Well-Known Industrial Challenge: Lack of Space
First, in a context of rapid growth, the industrial company Strong MDI in Joliette faced a major physical limitation: a saturated warehouse with no immediate expansion possibility.
The challenges were clear:
- Fixed aisles that unnecessarily occupied space.
- Complex circulation for teams.
- Handling heavy loads in a poorly optimized environment.
- Increasing pressure on logistical productivity.
Next, to continue operations efficiently without relocating, the company had to optimize its industrial storage while ensuring safety and smooth operations.
Project Objectives
🎯 Maximize industrial storage space in the existing warehouse
🎯 Ensure safe support of heavy loads
🎯 Simplify logistical workflows
🎯 Avoid a major construction investment
The Solution – The SAFERAK® 32P from Montel, a Technology Designed for Industrial Environments
A High-Performance Motorized Mobile System
That’s why Groupe SOMR proposed the integration of the SAFERAK® 32P to Strong MDI in Joliette.
A motorized mobile shelving system designed by Montel for demanding industrial environments.
This system is based on electronically controlled motorized bases,
capable of supporting significant loads while freeing up the maximum usable space.
Key Advantages of the SAFERAK® 32P
✅ Smooth and Safe Mobility: The shelves move smoothly thanks to intuitive motorization.
✅ High Industrial Capacity: Ideal for heavy or bulky materials.
✅ 50% Reduction in Fixed Aisles: Every square meter is optimized.
✅ Custom Configuration: Tailored to the space, type of load, and workflow.
✅ Integrated Safety: Detection systems and anti-collision devices ensure operator protection.
What the Project Manager Says
« The SAFERAK® 32P literally changed the way we work. We freed up space, improved productivity, and enhanced the safety of our teams.
It’s a project that brought real added value without disrupting our operations. »
Conclusion – A Real Optimization Project, Not Just an Installation
Moreover, this case study shows that it’s possible to gain in capacity, safety, and profitability without necessarily expanding the premises.
The SAFERAK® 32P offers more than just space savings:
🔹 It transforms existing warehouses into high-performance environments.
🔹 It pushes the limits of traditional installations.
🔹 It provides industrial companies with a concrete alternative to real estate expansion.
SOMR: Optimization First
Finally, at Groupe SOMR, we believe that the best way to grow is to make better use of what you already have.
