Delivering on-site savings to transform project productivity and profitability

Material Handling Case Study: Time savings for on-site installations, productivity improvements, prompt end-to-end service and support

Location: Australia | Customer: FLIQUIP

Customer Problem

The success of a project is determined by efficiency at every stage. The materials handling industry is driven by a need to find ways to save money and increase profits without sacrificing quality across the production line.

FLIQUIP is a material handling equipment and maintenance provider that specializes in supplying equipment and filtration media for powder and granular materials as well as water treatment and filtration. Prior to working with Norgren, parts for new installations were assembled at various areas of the site which led to wasted time and reduced productivity. FILQUIP engaged Norgren to optimize on-site installation time for projects through a solution that provided:

• A consolidated area for installation that cut installation time and cost

• A fixed price for the solution to reduce total cost of ownership

• A reduction in downtime

• Better project control and value added to existing systems

Norgren Solution

In line with FILQUIP’s requirements, Norgren delivered specialized material handling installations and DC systems to enable significant time savings for on-site installations.

Control cabinets ensured installation was consolidated in one place and were purpose-built for various hopper and dust collection applications. Moreover, special kits developed for mobile hopper and pinch valve applications delivered 'Breakthrough Engineering' and innovation for reliable performance in the long-term.

In addition to quality, the longevity of FILQUIP's relationship with Norgren can be attributed to the professionalism of the team, end-to-end experience received and a service approach of 'going the extra mile'.
