A large UK based OEM and distributor of lighting solutions and components needed more space quickly. As some of the company’s depots were closing due to a restructuring programme, one particular manufacturing facility faced immediate pressure to increase both the volume and variety of their products. With limited space available to store additional stock prior to shipping, the Operations Manager searched for a cost-efficient, prefabricated building structure of proven quality that he could rely on.

Following an initial phone call, Herchenbach was invited on site to see if they were able to provide a fast, cost-effective storage solution. As opposed to other solutions, Herchenbach’s temporary warehouses are suited for both semi-permanent and permanent installations. This made it an ideal supplier for a business that required flexibility between a temporary warehouse and a longerterm solution. Within two days, a customized quote was provided.
After comparing different offers, the optimal solution came from Herchenbach’s temporary building range. These high quality buildings feature a reliable German engineered aluminium frame, yet allow for customisation through size and accessories and are very cost-effective.
Going from the first enquiry to assembly in just 4 weeks, Herchenbach’s temporary warehouse provided 6932 sq. ft. of storage space, ready for immediate use. The building measured 65.9 ft. (20.08 m) wide, 105.5 ft. (32.16 m) long and 21 ft. (6.4 m) eave height, with trapezoidal sheet metal walls and sliding doors large enough for FLTs and lorries. Lighting and rain gutters were installed along the length of the walls to ensure optimal storage conditions. While heavy winds and snow initially disrupted the beginning of the installation, Herchenbach’s installation team worked seamlessly with a racking company to ensure everything was completed within the scheduled time frame. As the General Manager put it, “Herchenbach handled the project perfectly from start to finish within all deadlines and budgets and Health & Safety requirements, making the entire process hasslefree.”
Herchenbach is the industry’s leading and trusted provider for building solutions to capacity problems. It is the UK’s only provider that manufactures its building solutions itself so its customers do not have to go through any intermediaries or resellers. That does not only ensure short lead times but also guarantees the highest building availability and best prices, saving its customers valuable money and time.
