Case Study

Growing pharmaceutical company doubles its floors space, providing more organization for the implantation of another production line.

Client: Elan Pharmaceuticals Inc

Location: King of Prussia, PA

Challenge: Existing growth required an additional manufacturing line in a very limited space. Off-site inventory storage was inconvenient in terms of transit, control, costs, security, accessibility and storage conditions.

Objectives: Concentrate the existing line's inventory storage for all raw materials and packaging, which would provide enough space to support the new production line. Eliminate expensive costs related to off-site storage: personnel, security, transportation and management costs, and capitalize on the building Elan was already leasing for the long-term.

Solution: Montel's HD industrial powered mobile storage systems mounted on pallet rack for heavy-duty storage.

	“After visiting existing Montel moveable pallet racking system installations, we were more than convinced on Montel’s capabilities and the reliability of their systems.

	Our storage capacity nearly doubled!

	We were able to reduce our operating costs, benefit from important savings, and moreover find enough room to implement another production line.

	Our Montel powered system has performed exceedingly well.”
