Sager Electronics' distribution center achieves 1000% increase in storage density with LISTA ESD drawer storage cabinets July 10, 2014

Company

Sager Electronics, Middleborough, MA. The industry's leading privately held, employee-owned distributor of world class electronic components.

Problem

Sager needed a storage system for their new centralized distribution center, a system that would be better organized and more efficient than their current racks and industrial shelving.

Objective

To invest in a storage system that increased both storage density and productivity.

Solution

Sager purchased a system from LISTA consisting of 40 mid-width modular drawer storage cabinets, each featuring a space-efficient 47" wide by 28" deep footprint. All the cabinets are painted with ESD paint, which is critical in the storage of sensitive electronic components.

Benefits

According to Mark Lincoln, Sager's distribution manager, the company has realized a number of benefits from their LISTA purchase, including:

  • a 1,000% increase in storage density
  • a 100% increase in productivity
  • increased picking accuracy
  • a 40% reduction in wasted space
