Puustelli Group Oy acquired drivable Sprint order pickers as tools for their warehouse operations.
Puustelli Group Oy is part of the Harjavalta Group, a Finnish family-owned company. As Finland’s leading kitchen furniture manufacturer, Puustelli produces approximately 10,000 kitchens per year, requiring efficient picking of numerous small items in the warehouse. After testing the drivable Sprint order pickers, Puustelli decided to invest in them.
The Sprint order picker makes it easy and safe to reach picking heights of over five meters. Lifting and lowering movements are quick and smooth. The pallet racks are fitted with mesh shelves and dividers, making them ideal for storing small items.
The Sprint order picker allows effortless and safe item picking from heights over five meters. Lifting and lowering movements are fast and smooth, making the equipment highly efficient. The Sprint can easily maneuver from one spot to another, and it’s compact enough to turn comfortably in tight spaces. A single battery charge provides approximately 15 hours of continuous use.
Improved Picking Efficiency at Puustelli
With the new Sprint order picker, Puustelli significantly enhanced its picking operations. Employees can now collect items comfortably and safely from heights above five meters. The Sprint is highly agile and performs rapid yet stable lifts and descents. Puustelli has expressed great satisfaction with this equipment choice, which followed a successful free trial arranged by Turun Hylly- ja Trukkitalo (THTT). Puustelli appreciates THTT’s recommendation, finding the Sprint order picker perfectly suited to their needs.
Increased Picking Locations
Puustelli needed additional picking locations in their warehouse but faced constraints regarding available space. THTT provided a comprehensive solution from their product range. Pallet racks were outfitted with mesh shelves and dividers, making it possible to pick items stored at heights up to five meters. The compact Sprint order picker was selected due to its suitability for the available aisle widths.
Smooth Picking Operations with Sprint
The Sprint order picker enables fast and efficient picking operations, with its height adjustable even while in motion, thanks to its excellent stability. The equipment ensures operator safety by automatically reducing speed as height increases. The driver’s cabin rails comply with safety regulations and offer ergonomic comfort. The Sprint picker operates effectively through an entire workday on a single charge and requires minimal maintenance.
Effortless Procurement Process
Working with THTT was straightforward and hassle-free. After understanding Puustelli’s needs, THTT proposed an optimal solution. The shelving system was designed to maximize vertical space utilization, accommodating both pallet storage and ample small-item picking locations within the same system. The innovative lifting device was initially provided on a trial basis, after which Puustelli confirmed the purchase. All necessary accessories for the Kasten shelving were delivered on schedule.
