This unprecedented pandemic e-commerce boom has also accelerated square footage issues associated with using totes in very busy distribution facilities.

In this podcast, Jim Page, tote stacker/de-stacker sales manager at Huron Technology Corp., and Matt Kindt, tote sacker/de-stacker application specialist at Huron, join Michael Levans, group editorial director of Peerless Media’s Supply Chain Group, to discuss how e-commerce growth has exasperated the labor and square footage problems associated with using totes in a distribution facility.

You'll hear how Tote Stacker automates the ability to increase storage density of empty totes and improve worker process efficiency and minimize the use of floor space.
