Frozen Food Processor, 80-Foot High-Bay Freezer
The Challenge
A frozen food processor needed to maximize storage density in a -20°F freezer while minimizing worker exposure to cold.
The Solution
MTLI installed an 80-foot unit-load ASRS with 25,000 pallet positions, eliminating the need for workers to enter the freezer for putaway and retrieval.
Results
- 25,000 pallet positions
- Zero freezer labor
- 30% energy reduction
- 2,000 pallets/day throughput
