About Synergy Retail Support

Established nearly 40 years ago from humble beginnings Synergy are now a 3PL and eCommerce fulfillment powerhouse, located in Northamptonshire, with over 280 team members. Synergy process and distribute tens of thousands of orders and returns daily.

For Synergy, their core beliefs are the three S’s.
Safe; Secure; and, Sustainable.
As part of their culture, they take each of these responsibilities seriously and continuously look at how they can do better.

With Sustainability in mind and wanting to maximise their pick space with a cleaner, sleeker more durable system, Synergy contacted us. Our team designed and created the perfect solution which was incorporated into their existing warehouse installation.

poorly stacked boxes

Issue

The 150,000 sq. ft facility with over 30 brands, operating 7 days a week, relying on cardboard bins to store SKUs, the Cardboard bins would quickly become damaged and collapse, resulting in stock falling, making picking difficult, resulting in a loss of time and money.

Solution

PIX® H- SLOTS Angled, SKUs are retained more efficiently in the sloped pick compartments eliminating time wasted replacing fallen stock. Constructed entirely of our strong honeycomb board, the structure of the cell technology maintains the form and function of the shelves preventing sagging from the repetition of picking.

Optimizing space with the flexibility to adapt to samples.

A cost-effective product that incorporates durability, longevity, and strength.

"We have a 150,000 sq. ft. facility in Northampton with over 30 brands, operating 7 days a week. By installing PALLITE’s PIX® units we know that we have the most flexible system available combined with the strength and durability to withstand years of e-commerce fulfillment. PIX® SLOTS provides 100% optimization of our space.

The previous cardboard storage bins would collapse really quickly, making them difficult to pick from and stock would fall. With the new installation of PIX® SLOTS there are no concerns as to their resilience and, our customers love them.

PALLITE’s Victoria Murray visited our site to help advise on the best solution to suit our business needs and goals, the units were produced specific to our space, delivery was within four weeks and were installed ready for picking within a few hours. Excellent service!"
