The Smart Way to Set Up Your Plant Floor in a New Country
The Smart Way to Set Up Your Plant Floor in a New Country
Start With a Plan—Not Just a Purchase
When launching operations in a new country, many companies rush to order equipment before designing an efficient plant layout. This leads to costly retrofits, workflow issues, and wasted space.
Key Factors for Layout Efficiency
- Space-to-equipment ratio: Ensure you leave room for maneuverability, storage, and maintenance access.
- Workflow zones: Clearly divide inbound, production, and outbound areas.
- Charging infrastructure: Plan where lithium or electric forklifts will charge without disrupting operations.
Why Global Projects Often Go Wrong
- Assuming one-size-fits-all: U.S. layout standards may not work for facilities in Mexico or Asia.
- Ignoring utilities: Voltage, air flow, and loading dock specs often vary significantly by region.
- Using outdated equipment: Forklifts that are too large or inefficient can create bottlenecks fast.
