Distribution Centre Storage

The Challenge: Expanding Capacity with Integrated Storage Solutions

Bandai Namco Amusement Europe required a larger, efficient distribution centre to accommodate their growing operations. The new Midlands-based 51,000 sq ft facility needed tailored storage solutions to house gaming equipment, spare parts, and support a technical workshop for machine maintenance and refurbishment.

The Approach: Tailored Design for Optimal Efficiency

Apex, part of Whittan, collaborated closely with Bandai Namco’s project team, conducting site surveys and delivering CAD-drawn plans. The solution provided a 25% increase in capacity, including 2,500 pallet locations, a mezzanine floor with workshop space, Longspan racking, Euro shelving for small parts, and secure staff lockers for streamlined operations.

The Solution: Smart and Flexible Storage Systems

• Narrow Aisle Pallet Racking for large gaming equipment with timber decking
• Mezzanine Floor for 665sqm additional space with a workshop underneath
• Longspan Racking for spare parts and archival storage
• Two-tier Euro Shelving for small components
• Staff Lockers with sloping tops for clean and organised facilities

The Result: Enhanced Efficiency and Future-Proofed Storage

The integrated solution maximized space, increased storage capacity, and improved workflow, paving the way for supply chain efficiencies and future growth.
