Benefits of a used warehouse layout

Laying out a warehouse takes time and effort. You research which layout best suits your work processes and then want to design it with the best quality for the lowest price. When a warehouse layout is used, it can often be reused for years to come. This plays a major role in the growing interest in used products. In the overview below we list the advantages for you.

Save money with used warehouse equipment

The most obvious and for many the main advantage of used warehouse equipment is the low price compared to new products. Because the products have been used before and do not have to be produced again, they are cheaper. This makes the warehouse furnishing a lot more affordable, without having to compromise on quality or functionality.

Used warehouse layout functions like new

A used warehouse layout must be functional, otherwise it is of no use to you. This is precisely why Kruizinga's buyout process is fast and efficient for the supplier, but precise and thorough for the potential new owner. Before Kruizinga buys up used products, the condition of the products is examined. This is because if they are not functional, they cannot be reused. In such a case, a product is not bought up.  

 

Upon receipt at our warehouse, all products are once again thoroughly examined and tested by professionals trained for this purpose. Only when the products are proven to be functional are they added to our used warehouse equipment assortment and photographed in our photo studio. We make sure that the photos clearly show possible signs of use. Thus, you can view photos of the used warehouse layout on our website to assess its condition. As a result, you will never encounter any surprises when purchasing a used warehouse layout from Kruizinga.

Used warehouse equipment is more sustainable

When producing new storage and transportation equipment, the burden on the environment is greater. This includes the use of new raw materials, materials and transportation. Companies can therefore use raw materials more intelligently by reusing storage and transport equipment. This contributes to a circular economy and a more sustainable work policy. This is important, also considering that the climate law stipulates that the Dutch industrial sector must be 100% circular and climate neutral by 2050. . 

Disadvantages of used warehouse equipment

When a warehouse layout is used, it also brings disadvantages for the reuser. We also list these for you so that you can decide what products to furnish your warehouse with.

Expansion options

If you plan to expand (in the future), it is important that you pay attention to the expansion possibilities of the used warehouse equipment you purchase. This is because a product or model may stop being produced over time. This makes expanding your warehouse more difficult. It is not an insurmountable disadvantage; by doing your research before purchasing, this can be avoided. In addition, it may also happen over time that a product or model you purchased new is no longer produced.
