How we optimised Airshoppen's new warehouse

Warehouse optimisation solutions for Airshoppen
Airshoppen is part of the Nordic Leisure Travel Group and is responsible for packing and distributing pre-ordered duty-free goods to the group's air passengers worldwide. The company stocks around 1,200 products from leading brands in skin care, perfume, jewellery, sunglasses, confectionery and alcohol.
When Airshoppen decided to move its central warehouse to a new logistics facility in Landskrona in 2019, it contacted AJ Products with a specific request: to maximise the storage capacity based on the design of the building and to make sure that all the required fittings and fixtures were installed on schedule.


A long list of requirements
Rickard Larsson, a project sales team member at AJ Products specialising in warehouse solutions, led the project to deliver a complete solution tailored to the customer's need. Alongside a space-saving layout and high-quality warehouse fittings, the specification also included good ergonomics, efficient picking routines and a high level of safety.
"This was a task that suited us very well," says Rickard. "With our wide range of warehouse fittings and extensive experience of large-scale logistics projects, it didn’t take us long to come up with an attractive proposal that met the customer's existing and future needs."
Once the Airshoppen management team accepted our proposal, we began focusing on all the practical issues.

We ticked all the boxes
Armin Seceragic, a project engineer at AJ Products, was initially responsible for all the technical calculations and drawings. After that, he took on the role of the project manager right up until the customer moved into the warehouse.
"We resolved all the issues from optimising the floor plan to manufacturing, delivering and finally assembling all the pallet racking and packing tables on site," says Armin. "We had daily discussions with the customer and the building contractor. There were a lot of additional orders that we sorted out gradually, including office furniture. It was a great project!"
It is worth adding that all items, big and small, were installed on schedule.


We supplied a complete solution
- Pallet racking ULTIMATE with a total of 4300 individually labelled pallet spaces.
- Around 1,000 picking spaces on flow rack conveyors that are integrated into the pallet racking for the best-selling products.
- Long-side access to pallets at all picking spaces for a more ergonomic picking process.
- Safety solutions including anti-collapse panels, pallet stops, upright reinforcements, collision guards and pallet backstops.
-
Additional warehouse fittings such as packing tables and picking trolleys, plus office furniture.


A good result for the future
Airshoppen moved into the new warehouse on schedule during the second quarter of 2020. It is now in a strong position for the future. The company has an efficient, safe warehouse with the capacity to pack around 2,500,000 products and to serve 1 million passengers per year - for many years to come!
Space-saving benefits of ULTIMATE pallet rackig
1) Beams adjustable in increments of just 50 mm, making it easy to maximise storage capacity.
2) ULTIMATE has narrower uprights than standard pallet racks, freeing up floor space that can be used for additional pallet racks or to provide forklift drivers with a little extra wiggle room. Airshoppen chose the latter.Want to know more about AJ Products' logistics solutions? Contact our warehouse experts here
