A factory warehouses is a bustling place of goods, forklifts and people. A typical mid-size factory warehouse stores hundreds types of raw material, as well as hundreds to thousands of types of end products, tens of forklifts busily travel among tens of tight, high-stacking rows of shelfs, picking items from thousands of shelf positions.

​

Many factory warehouses don't have digital warehouse/stock management system, operators manually check and record where stocks are thorough barcode scanning, resulting in issues such as:

​

• Manual Inventory: It is time-consuming to run inventory check and audit

• Slow order fulfillment: Different products are sorted manually to combine into shipping pallets, it is time consuming and error-prone

• Wrong label for customers: Sometime different customers need different label (language, product number etc) for same product, but it is easy to make mistake when preparing the shipping pallets manually

​

Thingple's warehouse solutions contains the following components:

​

Robust Tags: Robust and durable shelf-tags and pallet-level tags to identify shelfs and pallets respectively. Also can accommodate pallets that already have embedded RFID tags.
