Chemicals firm installs modular dock

Genesys International needed the product to help improve loading and unloading times of 20ft and 40ft containers, as well as loading box trailers more efficiently. In addition to this, the modular dock was needed to ensure Genesys’ employees were able to do their job safely and efficiently.

Having searched online for support, Genesys found DARMAX and contacted them to discuss their project requirements. DARMAX is a trusted sales agent of Thorworld Industries and its director, James Corfield, scoped out the project and worked with Thorworld on the design of the modular dock, prior to its production.

The solution provided to Genesys included bespoke stairs to ensure the safest and quickest route to the dock from the building. They also integrated the existing container ramp on site, so that the costs to Genesys and the impact on the environment were kept to a minimum. 

James Corfield says: “In line with our environmental philosophy, the option to re-use the existing ramp rather than replace was well received by Genesys.”

Since the modular loading dock was installed, loading and unloading times have improved, which has resulted in the Genesys team working smarter and boosting output. In addition to this, employees have remained safe while operating a new piece of business-critical equipment.

Genesys senior production manager Nick Davenport, says: “I was very impressed with the service from both Thorworld Industries and DARMAX and would recommend their services to anyone. The whole process, from conception to completion, was flawless.

“We are incredibly happy with our new modular loading dock, which has already made a big difference to our business, whilst aligning with our core values surrounding team member safety.”
