There are still great opportunities in many warehouses to make processes more efficient and error-free. Think of scanning delays or picking errors that cost time every day. With smart labels, clear signs and innovative scanning plates, Labelfabriek.nl has been making a difference since 2012. "Our solutions provide 20 to 25 percent faster processes and error margins that drop to two per mille," say founders Jeroen Wijs and Ties Bakker.
Labelfabriek.nl deliberately takes a personal, no-nonsense approach. "We prefer to just step into a warehouse to see how it works," says Wijs. "That's where customization begins. For example, by looking along, asking questions and only then coming up with solutions." Unlike suppliers who think from production, Labelfabriek.nl looks at what is needed on the floor. "We do not deliver a standard product, but a fitting solution. Every design is applicable to every material, from magnet to stainless steel."
Labelfabriek.co.uk's product range is fully geared to practice in warehouses. For example, the company supplies warehouse labels and magnets. It also supplies scanning boards and signs for location marking, as well as floor labels and robust scanning plates for intensive use. "Our strength lies in the combination of flexibility and simplicity," says Bakker. "A clear layout, recognizable colors, optimally scannable bar codes, compatibility with a WMS and the right format, that makes all the difference."
The added value of good labeling is evident in the results. "Companies see the number of picking errors drop once our labels are in use. And scanning goes up to 25 percent faster. With that, you can simply do more with the same team." Something Labelfabriek.nl also does is help customers standardize layouts and colors so that recognition increases and confusion decreases. "Everything is about peace and order in the warehouse."
A good example of Labelfabriek's customer-focused innovation is the rugged scanning plate. It replaces traditional floor labels that wear out or get broken. "The plate is made of stainless steel, as thick as a floor label and able to withstand heavy internal transport," says Wijs. "That extends its life and ensures constant scannability." The scanning plate will be on display at Logistica Next. "There, visitors can see the plate in action. That is experience. It emphasizes our vision: solutions must be practical as well as sustainable."
Labelfabriek.nl operates in the Netherlands and Belgium, switches quickly and delivers with short lines of communication. "We are accessible, think along and do what we promise. No fuss, but results. And always focused on improving our customer's warehouse."
