A large domestic petrochemical group with multiple production bases and a nationwide sales network, processing over 20 million tons of crude oil annually. Specializing in crude oil, refined oil, chemical raw materials, and products, its warehousing materials cover various hazardous chemicals such as flammable, explosive, and corrosive substances, urgently needing to build a safe, efficient, and intelligent warehousing and logistics system.
The traditional warehousing model faced four major challenges: high safety risks in hazardous chemical storage, with manual operations prone to safety accidents; difficulty in inventory management due to a wide variety and specifications of warehousing materials, with a 3% inventory discrepancy rate; low manual handling efficiency, with a daily outbound volume of less than 500 tons, unable to meet production and sales demands; and only 20% space utilization, resulting in severe land resource waste. An intelligent upgrade via an Automated Storage & Retrieval System (AS/RS) was urgently required.
