In 2018, The Nilkamal Sales Team in Vilayat, Bharuch sold a custom made ADD SAT Shuttle Racking System Grasim Industries at Bharuch. Grasim Industries Limited is the flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group. It started as a textile’s manufacturer in India in 1947. Today, it is a leading global player inVSF. The Company entered into the Chemicals business to manufacture Caustic Soda, an input for VSF. The business has grown multi- fold and today Grasim is the largest caustic soda producer in India with a capacity of 938 KTPA in FY18. It also produces a range of chlorine derivative products and epoxy. Further to an inquiry and a layout drawing we received from the IP sales person in January 2018, our first meeting with Grasim Industries was held in February 2018 wherein we presented Nilkamal as a one stop solution for warehousing & material handling needs. Prior to this meeting, we had noticed when the drawing was submitted that the customer was not aware of the different solutions which would be implemented. Their existing process was of a ground block storage with required self-stacking, as pallet placement requires skill and judgement the operations were slow which in turn reduced the overall throughput of the warehouse. Due to the existing process, the customer was not able to store more than 600 pallet locations and they also had to deal with identifying the products due to manual block stacking. After carefully studying the problem, we proposed the solution of: a. SAT ADD Shuttle Racking System which will increase storage, the speed of selection of pallets, reduce costs and damages.
