Partnering with a small scale industry for a world class product

Metal storage systems, a medium scale manufacturer wanted to get into automated storage systems. The market here is dominated by imports.

Metal storage systems, a medium scale manufacturer wanted to get into automated storage systems. The market here is dominated by imports.

Under the government’s grant for design innovation, Metal Storage System got together with Ether Design and undertook a systematic study of what could be done in this space. Their indigenous system was not functionally robust and created big problems when the trays moved up and down. From a systems design point of view it required serious design intervention where functionality, aesthetics and ergonomics were concerned.

All these problems were solved and a world class product experience has been imparted in terms of modularity, ease of fabrication and maintenance and a robust mechanical operation.
