At Hermes’ fulfilment center in Haldensleben, a great NEDCON project has been realized consisting of two mezzanine floors with shelving. For this project, a 50% water permeable shelf has been developed, a unique solution, made possible by the development and execution of tests in our Test Department. With this project, Hermes takes over the entire shipping process for its customers. From the moment the consumer places the order, the warehousing up to and including the processing of returns. The spectrum of goods varies from textiles and jewelry to smartphones, furniture and washing machines. The fulfillment center is directly connected to the Hermes transport network, which means that parcels can be sent to recipients very quickly. The delivered installation supports Hermes in providing its customers with a smoothly functioning supply chain, so that consumers receive the placed order very quickly.

The installation is suitable for storage of small goods on shelves that are equipped with the 50% permeable shelf. This design of the shelf was required according to the VDS guideline (independent testing institute). After an extensive period of testing of prototypes in our Test Department, this unique concept has been created. The rounded holes make the shelf extremely safe for use. The specially developed fall of protection, which is attached to the shelf, ensures that the container cannot fall from the shelf during order picking.
Even a great plan is just a plan....
