Efficiency is a crucial element in manufacturing and logistics. Companies continuously seek ways to enhance and streamline their processes to remain competitive in a rapidly changing market. Omefa, a leading company that processes plastic pellets into high-quality products, recently expanded its facilities by adding a new materials department to improve its logistics processes. This addition integrates seamlessly with the existing infrastructure, allowing Omefa to increase production capacity while enhancing the efficiency of its logistics.
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. Indeed, one side of the building is dedicated to raw materials, which undergo various processes before being transformed into finished products on the opposite side.
As a quality specialist in innovative pipework solutions, Walraven was asked to provide the fixing system for the internal section of the warehouse, ensuring that the installation was modular to accommodate future organisational 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, Walraven designed a rooftop support solution that allowed access to certain roof parts without causing damage.
Walraven’s RapidStrut® system and KSB2 brackets created a flexible and user-friendly mounting grid in the warehouse. Thanks to the Walraven RapidStrut system accessories, the installation could have been quickly assembled and, if necessary, dissembled in the future, allowing adaptability if Omefa’s production processes change.
The pipe system extends beyond the interior, reaching the roof, where Walraven designed various mounting systems on different staircases. These custom solutions ensure safe and easy access to rooftop sections. Additionally, the Walraven Yeti® feet provide stability on flat roofs without causing damage from drilling.
