Optimization of a storage area for tires and automotive equipment
The Roady automotive center in Villefranche-sur-Saône (69), part of the Les Mousquetaires group, specializes in automotive maintenance and repair.
The center comprises a store and a repair workshop.
The customer's problem
In need of space to store its tires and store products, Roady wanted to increase the storage capacity of its storeroom without building.
The Provost solution
A platform solution with circulation aisles that takes advantage of the height of their stockroom to store and retrieve tires and products.

Increase storage capacity by capitalizing on stockroom height
In line with roady's aim to "increase storage capacity without building", we propose a high-bay racking solution that takes advantage of the height of their previously unused storeroom.
Equipped with a circulation aisle level, it enables tires and automotive accessories or parts to be stored and retrieved over the full height of the facility, i.e. 5.1 meters.
"We chose Provost because our contact person was able to advise us on the layout of the storeroom, integrating our constraints. We developed the project together to bring this platform concept to fruition. We now have an ergonomic installation that saves us time on a daily basis in stock management and product research"
Philippe Heitzmann, Chairman and CEO of Sytech Roady.
A modular solution that adapts to seasons and peaks in activity
To complete the platform solution with aisles, our design office suggested installing a PROPLUS LP3 self-supporting platform to enable tire pallets to be deposited on the floor, thus freeing up floor space.
The entire installation is entirely modular, adapting to the seasons and peaks in activity.
By placing a wooden panel on the beams, the tire spaces can quickly be transformed into a picking area for maintenance products, equipment and accessories sold in-store.
An ergonomic tire hopper
Drawing on its experience in the world of automobile distribution, Provost's design office integrated an ergonomic "tire hopper" solution into the heart of the installation to facilitate the descent of tires from the platform floor.
By avoiding the need for an operator to descend the staircase with arms loaded with tires, the risk of RSI and falls down the stairs is reduced.
