Our customer, Omefa in The Netherlands is a manufacturer of high quality plastic components. They were expanding their facilities by adding a new raw materials department to process the plastic pellets and deliver them seamlessly to other areas within the factory.
Omefa approached Walraven to develop a horizontal and vertical pipe-fixing network that would fit into the new part of the building and facilitate the relocation of silos without disrupting the efficient material flow.
It was important for the support system to be modular to accomodate potential future layout changes. The piping system needed to align with the suction system that would take the raw plastic pellets from one side of the factory and route them to the different stages of production.
Additionally, an external rooftop solution was required to allow access to areas of the roof without damaging the rooftop surface.
Walraven’s RapidStrut® channel system and pipe clamps created a flexible and user-friendly pipe support system in the warehouse. Given the scale of the project, the RapidStrut pre-assembled connectors were a huge benefit, allowing a quick and efficient assembly. The system also allows for easy disassembly if necessary, for any future adjustments that may be required.
On the rooftop, a non-penetrating stepover solution was designed using Walraven Yeti® 480 mounting feet to allow safe and easy access to rooftop sections.
