When it comes to large-scale capital projects—particularly automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS)—it’s easy to get caught up in the big-picture automation benefits while overlooking crucial, practical details. One such detail? The humble tote. These containers are where your valuable products actually reside during storage and movement within the system. Selecting the right tote is not just a formality—it’s foundational to performance.

A Strategic Approach to Storage Efficiency

At Streamline-IT, we place our clients and their operations at the heart of everything we do. Our collaborative process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your specific products and the nuances of your manufacturing, storage, and distribution environments.

From there, we apply our proprietary Needs Analysis Protocol—a structured framework designed to match your operation with the ideal mix of material handling containers, dunnage, dividers, and pallets. This ensures that every component is selected not only for compatibility but also for operational efficiency and long-term value.

Our offerings span a variety of materials including corrugated plastic, molded plastic, and fabricated options. We supply specialized formats such as:

• Stackable and nestable totes

Test. Refine. Optimize.

Before full deployment, we strongly encourage thorough in-situ testing of our pre-production samples. This allows clients to assess performance under real-world conditions and validate that their selected containers will deliver optimal results in their unique environments.
