Day: 23 January 2019

Top European door provider, Hörmann UK, is recognising a significant business milestone in 2019, marking its 40th anniversary with a range of events and incentives to celebrate both its customers and employees.

Founded in 1979 following the success of its German counterpart, Hörmann UK has firmly established itself as the number one provider of industrial products, domestic garage doors, front entrance doors and timber internal doors, as well as loading technology and much more besides.

Over the last four decades Hörmann UK has built a strong relationship with homeowners, architects, specifiers, warehouse owners and construction professionals, reflected in its diverse and ever expanding product and service offering.

Throughout 2019, Hörmann UK will be hosting trips for both its employees and customers to its headquarters in Steinhagen, Germany, for an opportunity to find out more about its German heritage and latest product developments, whilst also hosting a “40 years of Hörmann UK” gala event, following the Homebuilding & Renovating Show in March at the NEC.

Wolfgang Gorner, Managing Director of Hörmann UK, said: “Each year as a business we continue to go from strength-to-strength, with our 40 years in operation testament to the hard work and commitment of every single one of our employees. This iconic milestone presents us with the ideal opportunity to recognise each of them individually throughout the year with a special series of events.”

The 40th Anniversary follows successful and continued growth in the service department, which has doubled over the last year to now offer a 20 strong fleet of engineers, available to both existing and non-clients. This has been achieved whilst also maintaining its impressive market share in the domestic sector, offering the highest standard in garage and entrance doors via its nationwide network of stockists.

Wolfgang continued: “2019 is an extremely exciting year for us as a business as we launch our new timber composite internal doors to the market, whilst also continuing to expand our dedicated projects team, working with some of the nation’s most high profile clients. The future is looking very positive for Hörmann UK and we are looking forward to building on this further throughout the year across all areas of the business.”

To celebrate the anniversary, Hörmann UK will also be giving away the 40th domestic garage door order it receives each month to a lucky end user, as a way to thank its customers for their continued loyalty and support.

Keeping efficiency high in cold environments is a challenge, therefore having access to the right technology to minimise downtime is key. The lithium-ion energy solution from Toyota launched last year brings many benefits to each operation, particularly to temperature-controlled zones.

“We are happy to expand our offer of lean solutions for cold environments. Our lithium-ion energy solution for low-temperature operations will help many customers handle goods such as fruit, dairy, fish and pharmaceuticals in an efficient manner,” says Sven Kruizenga, Product Manager Energy Solutions at Toyota Material Handling Europe. “We welcome you to find out more about this new solution at LogiMAT in Hall 2, Stand A05 between 19 and 21 February 2019 in Stuttgart, Germany.”

Save energy with lithium-ion for cold store

The in-house assembled lithium-ion solutions from Toyota offer energy savings, service-friendly operations and enhanced safety. But especially in very cold operations the li-ion solution for cold store, now available from Toyota, is an attractive alternative to the traditional lead-acid batteries. Battery power loss is minimal and the ability of opportunity charging in the cold rooms allows the trucks to stay inside longer. The less frequently the trucks need to go outside, the fewer issues will occur with condensation when going out the cold room.

Save time, space & resources

The prevention of waste is a key principle in Toyota’s lean-thinking philosophy. Lithium-ion battery technology is an excellent example of how cost savings can be achieved. Especially in cold store this will be appreciated: no maintenance, maximum battery performance, fast opportunity charging, and in-cold-store charging. The standard Li-ion battery solution works efficiently in chilled areas and for a limited time in cold store. The solution with battery heater even makes charging and working longer periods in temperatures down to -30°C possible, fulfilling all customer requirements.

Fresh thinking from Toyota

Chilled or frozen operations require efficient solutions that minimise waste of space, resources and time, while also ensuring reliability in these demanding environments. Toyota Material Handling has a long history and experience working in low-temperature operations and offers a wide range of lean solutions for cold environments.

The manual and automated truck range from Toyota Material Handling are as standard equipped to work efficiently in chilled areas. Smart technology such as I_Site and Li-ion from Toyota can improve efficiency even further, while solutions such as mobile racking and shuttles maximise the use of space in cold store rooms. Thinking about the workers, heated cabins provide an effective working environment, ensuring they stay motivated, productive and healthy.
