Danone sometimes needed to stop production lines because containers with fruit preparations emptied unexpectedly. Nowadays, after each batch produced, the fruit containers are weighed on the hand pallet trucks that return them to the warehouse. This allows a higher efficiency in production planning and stock control.
Once every three months an inventory is made of the perfumes warehouse. Thanks to the weighing forks on the Linde forklift truck, the IBC containers only need to be lifted from the racking to know how much perfume they contain. When weighing a warehouse full of IBC’s, this saves them a full day’s work!
