In September last year, item opened its new site in Tamm and, in doing so, reinforced its presence in the Stuttgart metropolitan area. By establishing its fourth branch in the economic powerhouse of Baden-Württemberg, the market leader in building kit systems for industrial applications has expanded its logistics network to include ten sites across Germany. Drawing on this network, item ensures customers benefit from widespread support, a consistently high availability of goods and rapid access to all products. The profile and linear technology specialist took advantage of the inauguration to provide an overview of its product portfolio for the MB Building Kit System, Work Bench System, Lean Production Building Kit System and Automation System.
In pursuit of its goal to meet specific customer requirements even faster, item has opened a new site in Tamm, north of the German city of Ludwigsburg. “By further strengthening our service network in the Stuttgart metropolitan area, we can process orders flexibly and in less time,” explains Jürgen Kupka, head of sales for the south of Germany at item. “Our customers can therefore continue to count on our short delivery times and the high quality of our products.” Indeed, catalogue goods ordered in Germany are dispatched within 48 hours. Customers can access the entire product range offered by the market leader in building kit systems, with local contacts providing direct support for projects. In addition to this, item runs on-site training sessions that cover basic and advanced elements of specialist mechanical engineering and reveal the ideal ways that profile and linear technology can be used. “As ever, our priority is to maintain direct and personal contact with our customers,” says Kupka, adding: “As part of that approach, the intelligent item online configuration and engineering tools are helpful in making project work easier.”
Conveniently situated near the A81 motorway and in close proximity to Stuttgart, the Tamm branch is helping to ensure item components are delivered quickly – despite the growing volume of orders. This new site, which spans approximately 3300 m2, has around 2300 m2 of storage/production space.
As it celebrated the opening of the site, the innovative company showcased solutions and products for industrial applications and revealed the almost unlimited possibilities for combining modular item components.
