The ini­tial sit­u­a­tion: Lots of staff. Lots of risks. DEXION is a mar­ket leader in Europe and oper­ates world­wide as part of the Gonva­r­ri Mate­r­i­al Han­dling Group. Every week, some twen­ty con­tain­ers leave its Laubach fac­to­ry in Hesse, typ­i­cal­ly car­ry­ing mate­ri­als for…

An inno­v­a­tive con­tain­er load and unload sys­tem is reap­ing enor­mous div­i­dends for an Aus­tri­an ski lift manufacturer’s glob­al trans­port bot­tom line. The back­ground Aus­tri­an-based firm Dop­pel­mayr Seil­bah­nen is the world mar­ket leader in build­ing rope­way constructions,…

Logis­tics is the dri­ver of glob­al­i­sa­tion. And con­tain­ers are its tur­bo, as a glob­al­ly recog­nised stan­dard capa­ble of being han­dled any­where in the world. Which is why SIMPLY. is expand­ing its solu­tion world­wide. Because load­ing and unload­ing con­tain­ers was something…

Pro­MAT is held in Chica­go every two years. Hav­ing start­ed in the 1950s, it is today America’s lead­ing trade fair for sup­ply-chain man­age­ment, with 950 exhibitors pre­sent­ing lit­er­al­ly thou­sands of solu­tions for engi­neer­ing, sys­tems and tech­nol­o­gy. This year’s event…

Equip­ment such as pro­tec­tive hel­mets or safe­ty boots are a mat­ter of course when it comes to mate­r­i­al han­dling. They also stand for pas­sive occu­pa­tion­al safe­ty and health mech­a­nisms. In oth­er words, they are only effec­tive if some­thing actu­al­ly hap­pens, preventing…

The SIMPLY. web­site fea­tures a unique tool – the ROI cal­cu­la­tor. This will help you deter­mine the point from which the SIMPLY con­tain­er load­ing sys­tem will start pay­ing off for you. While the basic idea is sim­ple, the exe­cu­tion is sophis­ti­cat­ed. You’ll be given…

Load­ing con­tain­ers using SIMPLY sys­tems is becom­ing a mat­ter of course for an increas­ing num­ber of cus­tomers. But the SIMPLY team con­tin­ues to set itself the task of attract­ing and impress­ing prospec­tive cus­tomers – and famil­iaris­ing new cus­tomers with the…

A trade fair is the per­fect place to forge per­son­al con­tacts. Above all, how­ev­er, it’s a place to obtain exten­sive infor­ma­tion first-hand. And that doesn’t just apply to the­o­ry; over those few days, poten­tial solu­tions to prob­lems are all on dis­play for comparison –…

The SIMPLY. suc­cess sto­ry began with flood-pro­tec­tion sys­tems. These were very heavy and bulky, yet the man­u­fac­tur­er was required to ship them world­wide in large quan­ti­ties. Using SIMPLY. was the answer to all ques­tions revolv­ing around speed, safe­ty and reliability.…

Mate­ri­als han­dling is always also a direct way of deal­ing with the com­pa­ny’s returns. This is sig­nif­i­cant­ly depen­dent on pro­duc­tiv­i­ty, and the per­for­mance pro­vid­ed by many work­ers can sim­ply be increased by mak­ing the work eas­i­er. Whether it’s bet­ter access to…
