Project Champagne Charpentier

Champagne Charpentier is a producer of champagne with low-temperature fermentation (36 months to 6 years maturation). They own 24 hectares of land and 9 cuvées.

- Customer project -

In Château-Thierry, Champagne Charpentier has created a new winemaking site. They therefore needed to equip the site's storeroom with a storage solution adapted to their voluminous production, the frequency of their product rotation and the preparation of their orders.

- The Provost solution -

In the same space, we created a specific high-density storage area with an electric shuttle and a picking area on dynamic frames (Carrier Pushback) perfectly adapted to their order preparation.

7 m high
15 pallets deep
405 pallets

High-density storage with shuttle to meet high demand at the end of the year.

Our high-density Last In - First Out storage system enables us to store bottles packed in palletized cartons, on 4 levels up to 7 meters high.

For better logistical stock management, this storage area is made up of 9 lanes corresponding to the number of vintages. Each lane can accommodate up to 15 pallets deep

The integration of a shuttle ensures the safety of forklift operators, who do not enter the storage aisles, and the integrity of the structure. One pallet is equivalent to 480 bottles, or 960 kg, and can represent a hazard when handled manually.

The available space is thus completely optimized, enabling storage of 405 pallets or 194,400 bottles (388 tons).

Pallet Shuttle: high-density storage with shuttles

Dynamic pushback storage

Dynamic picking area for order preparation

To improve order picking for professional customers (wine merchants, semi-gastronomic and gastronomic restaurants, etc.), pallets are placed on the Carrier Pushback system.

This accumulation storage system is based on Last In-First Out management, with a single reference stored per level. This facilitates order preparation, and eliminates any confusion over vintages during picking!

This zone is made up of 5 lanes and 6 pallets deep with 3 levels. This corresponds to 90 pallets or 43,200 bottles and 86 tons of stored products.
