PHILOSOPHY
Since SCHRACK TECHNIK reverted back to being an independent Austrian company, we have been working at high speed to realign the company to an Austrian client base.
The new SCHRACK LOGISTICS CENTRE is located on the B17 at Guntramsdorf. You cannot miss it - the outside of the building is covered with the SCHRACK DESIGN providing a glimpse of the 7 product ranges which are handled inside the logistics centre: Energy technologies, Light systems, Industrial products, Cables and Lines, Plant engineering, Building systems technology and Network technology. ”Our logistical aim is to optimise product availability for our Austrian customers. One way of doing so is with high stock levels and quick movement of goods within the Logistics Centre at Guntramsdorf, another one is to ensure decent product availability when picking up from our regional outlets. This contrasts sharply with the general trend towards a philosophy of centralised product warehouses. Today, companies such as ours with a huge range of products must be able to know exactly where the needs of our customers are.“
10,000 m² surface area, the warehouse has a length of 224 m and a height of 11m, over 13,000 articles can be moved around almost fully-automated. There is also a 2,500 m² outdoor cable storage facility.
After making a total investment of over five million Euros, SCHRACK TECHNIK is taking active steps towards becoming the leading company in Central and Eastern Europe.
This will also save SCHRACK TECHNIK CUSTOMERS money thanks to a product range that is well-suited to the needs of our customers, enabling you to get most of what you need in one go. Our new Logistics centre at Guntramsdorf means customers can take delivery of their products in a way that suits them best. They can also pick them up directly from a SCHRACK CUSTOMER COMPETENCE CENTRE.
