Constant temperature equipment specialist LAUDA builds new logistics center
The enormous increase in sales in recent years has necessitated an expansion of the LAUDA company premises. To this end, the breaking ground ceremony on December 15, 2011 laid the cornerstone for the construction of a new logistics center. This modern building with its semi-transparent, polycarbonate facade is being built in the middle of the company grounds. An investment sum of 2.3 million euros has been earmarked for the initial construction phase. The new building should be ready for occupancy as early as July 2012 and is due to be inaugurated on July 20, 2012 within the scope of a grand summer fete with all our employees.

Construction of the logistics center heralds the next phase of the 'STEP_3' (location development program) project. Located in the middle of the company grounds, the new building will supply material to various product areas. The process chain has been optimized by reorganizing incoming goods and incoming shipment inspection, warehousing, preparation, material transport of the parts to assembly and back, as well as the packaging of finished equipment for dispatch. Warehoused goods can be stored to the impressive height of 7.50 meters in a total of 1,150 storage bays over an 800-sqm area offering 9.70 meters of headroom. These storage bays are serviced by a so-called narrow aisle lift truck.
