- Label holdersClear plastic sleeves are designed to attach to shelving using pre-applied double-sided tape or by clipping onto metal mesh placed over shelving beams. The key advantage of these systems is their flexibility—allowing easy repositioning of inserted tags. This is particularly useful in areas where the type or quantity of stored products may frequently change.
- Line marking / Warehouse line markingPainted lines on the warehouse floor that delineate traffic lanes, storage zones, safety areas, or workspaces. They guide staff and machinery flow and clarify functional divisions in your warehouse. Lines are created using highly durable UV-cured paint which is successfully used in cool-rooms and areas requiring immediate access to the painted markings.
