There are, of course, many factors to consider when designing a warehouse and implementing a logistics program within that warehouse. You need to ensure that items can be accessed easily and quickly regardless of how often they need to be access but priority should be given to those products that you need to access on a regular basis. You should also ensure that anybody who enters the warehouse can quickly and easily find their way around, locate the items they’re looking for, and read and update any relevant information about those items. Signposting doesn’t have to be complex or expensive but it does need to be efficient and effective.
A simple signposting system can help provide clarity in a warehouse environment. Signs can be added above important locations and, rather than committing to the use of specific item names you can implement a full logistics system. This will allow for the regular updating of information without the need to have brand new signs created every time.
There are many forms of signposting that you can choose from including rectangular signs. These are most commonly used to hang over specific areas and to give an identifying location. The use of codes means that you don’t have to have new signposting created if you decide to alter the layout of your warehouse.
Triangular signposting can be placed above a number of rows and aisles in order to provide greater visibility from a wider range of angles. However, if you want to provide directions as well as locations you can use cube shaped signposting. Anybody that uses your warehouse will be able to see where the items they want are located and not only will they benefit from this but so too will you.
By integrating effective and highly visible signposting with a logistics system you can ensure the successful and efficient running of the warehouse. You can implement a code system that means warehouse workers and other users of the warehouse can easily find their way around, locate the items they require, and even update the layout of the warehouse to benefit everybody.
