This is a standard foldable wet floor sign that is required in any space where the general public might encounter wet floors.

From supermarkets that have spills, to office corridors that are being mopped while people are in the building. These signs alert people that the floor will be slippery.

Slips, trips and falls are the leading cause of injury in NZ, and this is one way to protect your workforce and customers from risk of harm.

Use dunnage racks for efficient storage and protection.

Mills Display Retail Trends and Tips

Dunnage racks offer a more flexible storage rack solution than other more bulky options like plastic pallets.

Dunnage storage racks primarily protect products from moisture, dirt and other damage that could occur if they were stored directly on the floor.

Quality plastic dunnage racks can support heavy and bulky products.

They are designed to be easily adaptable to a range of businesses and give you solid value for your investment.

Why should you consider using dunnage racks?

Plastic dunnage racks support a range of weights

Made of heavy-duty plastic, dunnage racks are highly durable and provide stability during storage.

You can choose from a range of differently sized models that have different weight capacities.

This way you can pick something that suits your space and your businesses’ needs.

Dunnage racks easily withstand cold temperatures and weather changes

Plastic dunnage racks are ideal for coolers and freezers because they can withstand temperatures that fall as low as -14oC.

They are also often used at garden centres and petrol stations because they are resistant to most industrial chemicals.

Also water and weather changes that typically affect conventional outdoor storage racks.

They are easy to maintain

Plastic resists mould, mildew and pathogens which makes these racks ideal for food storage.

Since plastic is corrosion resistant, they last for much longer and can be cleaned easily on a regular basis with water blasting or steam cleaning.

Unlike plastic pallets, these are structured so that you can clean the floor underneath and this makes it easier to maintain your storage space as well.

Dunnage racks reduce product damage

Storing your products appropriately is essential to reduce damage and prevent product waste.

Durable plastic dunnage racks are practical options to keep your products off the ground, away from moisture and dust.

They also have structural features like rounded edges so your products don’t get damaged by getting snagged on sharp corners.

This also protects your employees from similar accidents.

Plastic dunnage racks are space efficient

Plastic dunnage racks are available in a range of sizes so you can choose the number and size of the racks you need, based on your needs.

These racks can then be configured and stacked as you like so you can come up with a way to use minimum floor space.

This is what makes dunnage racks especially useful for unusually shaped rooms or small spaces.

To make transport easier, these racks are lightweight, and some models even have corner pockets that make them simple to stack. This is useful for storage and transport.

They can double up for displays

Like plastic pallets, dunnage racks can also double up to hold products for display.

Since they’re easily configurable and look appealing, they work well for visual merchandising.

Why are dunnage racks useful for food related businesses?

Made of tough plastic material, dunnage racks are good at enduring the food acids and temperature changes that are common in the food transport and production industry.

In large kitchens and food production units, these racks prove to be convenient storage solutions for ingredients and other products, keeping them safely off the floor.

Thanks to the fact that they can support heavy weights, even bulky bags or boxes can be stored on these storage racks.

Space is generally a premium in kitchens and production units so it is useful that dunnage racks can be arranged in such a way that they make the most efficient use of the available floor space.

Since they can be cleaned easily and plastic is resistant to pests, pathogens and microbes, these are the preferred options for food storage.

They last a long time and can be maintained using fairly simple methods of cleaning and disinfection.

Being plastic, they are not susceptible to rust and this gives them a huge advantage over metal dunnage racks.

Some food products and ingredients need to be stored at freezing temperatures and plastic dunnage racks have the ability to withstand these temperatures.

Some are even designed with slotted tops to encourage air circulation so fresh produce or perishables will last as long as possible.

It is all these properties that make plastic dunnage racks suitable to meet food safety regulations.

Case Study – Improved Shelf Presentation for Supermarket

Mills Display NZ Case Study

Our Team of shelf product presentation professionals can help your business find the right

product display solution.

Call us or visit our showroom at 327A Neilson Street, Penrose in Auckland.

We work alongside many New Zealand businesses to create retail display, point of sale and

merchandising products.

Our retail display catalogues and website product range can offer practical information.

But nothing beats talking with one of our retail display professionals to discuss how we can help you.

What was the problem the customer needed solving?

Recently one of our supermarket customers approached us to help with an off shelf display

issue.
This Supermarket has a display issue with their Natural Bread Wraps products.
They stock a range of Natural Bread Wrap products and were having problems displaying them on their shelving.
The product would not sit upright well and as such their customers could not see which flavours of the product were available.

How did we help this local supermarket store?

We presented a product to improve the presentation of the Wraps.

After speaking with our customer I went away to look at what options we had to help them.
The best option we came up with was our Pie/Wrap/Pita Bread stand which could be use with multiple products.

This product would fit well on the shelf space they had and could be used for a variety of products. I sent images and dimensions of the stand to our customer and they thought  looked like a viable option to trial.

What was the outcome of the shelf product presentation trial?

We sent out some stands for our customer to trial and asses their feedback. This Supermarket

customer tried them with some of their Natural Wrap products and Pita Breads.

Our customer was pleased with the improved display of the products and how easy they were

to use and implement.

They presented very well and the feedback from their customers was that they found it easier

to shop the Wraps and Pita Breads and find the flavour/variety they wanted.

Our customer has since ordered more stands and are using them widely in those categories.

Using cage trolleys for restocking and temporary stock storage solutions

Mills Display Retail Trends and Tips

Product Display Solutions Case Study Auckland

Cage trolleys offer a simple solution for moving stock around the warehouse or retail area, for big or small businesses. Contact Mills Display today…

Save time, money, and make your operations compliant with health and safety legislation by using cage trolleys. Increase productivity by saving staff time and decrease stock losses by storing and moving items correctly.

Why you should use cage trolleys?

Streamline your stocking and storage systems by adding cage trolleys to your operations. Our cage trolleys reduce the number of trips your staff take to restock shelves and decrease stock losses due to damage from being incorrectly stored or dropped.

They are easy to use, manoeuvre and can be used as temporary storage when needed. In short, they are an easy solution for a range of stock movement problems.

Who uses cage trolleys?

Any retail store that need to move items from storage to shelves will benefit from a cage trolley. Supermarkets, retailers, hardware stores, courier companies, hospitals and garden centres use our cage trolleys to get everything from A to B, quickly and with no damaged product.

Why do you need a cage trolley for health and safety?

New Zealand health and safety regulations mean that actions such as bending, lifting, and carrying heavy items are all discouraged. Injuries are common, especially when staff lift and move repeatedly, and these can lead to ACC claims and sick days.

For many companies, a pallet jack or sack barrow is used to move product around. However, if there are standard width doorways that pallets won’t fit through, or the product is loose and doesn’t stack on a sack barrow, then those options aren’t viable.

To comply with OSH requirements, you need to have an option for staff to move product without carrying many heavy items and without having to take multiple trips.
To further ensure safety on the floor, our trolleys also have brakes. Once they’re in place, there’s no danger of unexpected movement.

What kind of cage trolley do you need?

There are a range of cage trolleys available, but you need one that fits your products and moves them safely to where they need to be. They aren’t designed for massively heavy and bulky items, but are ideal for smaller items you can hand-lift at each end. Our cage trolley can move up to 300kg of product at a time, which is generous and makes it suitable for most products.

Our two-sided cage trolley with a shelf will meet most people’s needs. In this instance, the shelf is removable, so you can take it out altogether. Or, you can easily re-install it using the simple drop clips to have the shelf at a different height that fits your products better.

For instance, it’s hard to stack plants, so having one shelf lower and then having another shelf higher up means you can move more stock at once. Less trips back and forth saves a lot of time for your staff.

If you’re shifting long items, having two sides open means you can take more objects stacked long-ways. If you are taking small packages, you might need to invest in a cargo strap that wraps securely around the trolley, ensuring nothing falls out.

When making decisions about what works for you, make sure you take the door size into account. The trolley needs to fit through all the relevant doorways from shop floor to warehouse. Our trolley is 1725mm high, 785mm long and 670mm wide, so it fits through standard doors easily.

https://millsdisplay.co.nz/products/cage-trolley-2-sided-with-shelf/

What are the benefits of cage trolleys?

The mesh sides mean you can easily see the product. The trolleys are often used as temporary storage, so being able to see what is stored there and how much stock is there makes life easier for warehouse staff. The trolleys don’t take up much storage space either and can be moved easily if space requirements change.

Using them as temporary storage is a great idea, as you can unload one day, and then restock a few days later as needed- no double handling of stock and saves considerable time.

The steel zinc-plated powder-coated frame is suitable for use outside or moving wet items such as plants. They can also be used in refrigerated or warm environments.

Call us to find out if this is the solution you need

Here at Mills Display, we sell quality products that last the distance. Our cage trolley is hard wearing and will help you with health and safety compliance. The castors are long lasting and ensure a smooth controlled journey.

The addition of cage trolleys to your storage and stock movement capabilities make you more compliant with health and safety requirements. Your staff will also save time by taking minimal trips back and forth, as well as minimising the chance for stock losses by dropping or incorrectly storing items.

They make the whole process easier and faster, ensuring better productivity and cost savings for the organisation.

Case Study – Motor Vehicle Display Signs for Car Dealer

Product Display Solutions Case Study Auckland

Product Display Solutions Case Study Auckland

Motor vehicle display signs Case Study. Our Team of retail display professionals can help your business find the right product display solution. Call us or visit our showroom at 327A Neilson Street, Penrose in Auckland.

We work alongside many New Zealand businesses to create retail display, point of sale and merchandising products. Our retail display catalogues and website product range can offer practical information.

But nothing beats talking with one of our retail display professionals to discuss how we can help you.

What was the problem the customer needed solving?

Our customer had trouble attaching information to motor vehicles on their sales yard.

A motor vehicle dealer approached us with an issue around presenting information on the cars in their sales yard. They wanted to attach an info sheet to a vehicle but didn’t want to use any adhesive. As they were attaching information to a large number of vehicles the solution had to be easy to use and present well.

How did we help this local motor vehicle dealer…

We established the reason behind this was that they didn’t want any adhesive touching the the area they were attaching the info sheet to. After looking through our range of products we came up with a solution that would avoid the adhesive issue.

The product we though would work best is called a POP Clip which has a large clip on the bottom to attach to almost anything with a small enough edge. The top of the POP Clip has a smaller clip to hold printed material or a label. There was a fair amount of urgency around this as they had a promotion coming up and we delivered the stock within 2 days.

What was the outcome for the motor vehicle display signs…

They were pleased with the product as it allowed them to attach the printed material to the vehicle without using any adhesive. This meant there was no extra cleaning required and no damaged surface caused by an adhesive. A by-product of this trial was that the customer could move the information around a lot more easily as the Clip is quite versatile.
