Optimising logistics processes at Omefa
To support the expansion of its production facilities, Omefa partnered with Walraven to develop a flexible pipe support solution for its new materials department. The project was designed to improve logistics efficiency while providing the adaptability needed for future growth and process changes.
Supporting an expanding facility
Omefa, a leading manufacturer of high-quality plastic products, recently expanded its operations with a new materials department designed to increase production capacity and streamline logistics processes.
The challenge was to create a horizontal and vertical pipe support network that integrated seamlessly into the new facility while allowing silos to be relocated without disrupting material flow. The installation also needed to support the suction system responsible for transporting raw plastic pellets through the various stages of production.
In addition, Omefa required a modular solution that could easily adapt to evolving production processes, as well as a rooftop support system that would provide safe access without damaging the roof structure.
Flexible and future-proof installation
As a specialist in innovative pipe support solutions, Walraven designed a modular fixing system tailored to Omefa’s operational requirements.
The solution incorporated Walraven RapidStrut® Systems and Walraven KSB2 brackets to create a flexible and user-friendly mounting grid throughout the warehouse. The modular design allows the installation to be assembled efficiently and modified or expanded in the future if organisational or production requirements change.
The pipe network supports the transport of raw materials across the facility, helping to maintain an efficient production flow from storage through to manufacturing.
Integrated rooftop access solution
The pipework installation extends beyond the warehouse and onto the roof, where Walraven designed several bespoke support systems across different staircase locations.
To ensure safe and convenient access to rooftop areas, Walraven developed custom mounting solutions tailored to the site’s specific requirements. Walraven installed Walraven Yeti® support feet to provide stability on the flat roof while eliminating the need for drilling and protecting the roof membrane from damage.
Delivering operational efficiency
Walraven combined modular fixing systems with tailored rooftop support solutions to create an installation for Omefa. The solution supports both current operations and future development.
As a result, Omefa now benefits from a flexible and efficient infrastructure. The installation optimises material flow, simplifies maintenance and provides the adaptability needed for continued growth.
