We already have achieved progress in lots of areas of our operations to be a cleaner company and have started looking at further areas we can improve. Here are the some of the efforts we have already made:

• Our vehicles are the latest Euro6 spec so as environmentally friendly as possible.
• Vehicles are generally set to ‘Economy’ level in order to maximum fuel efficiency and we monitor these levels
• Reach trucks are modern electric powered trucks.
• We have introduced a computerised Traffic Management system and Warehouse Management system which has decreased our paper usage.
• Invoices & POD’s etc are almost 100% sent electronically.
• We have removed our electric immersion boiler hot water system and replaced with 3 x 10l under counter water heaters.
• We have replaced much of our lighting with low energy LED bulbs.
• We recycle our waste. The company we use guarantee that all waste is (hand) sorted at their depot for recycling including cardboard, tins, bottles paper etc.
• We recycle wood (pallets mainly).
• Our website is hosted in the UK in a state-of-the-art data centre using the latest in security technologies running on 100% renewable energy with a PUE of 1.12. PUE stands for power usage efficiency, and lower is better.

To start 2022 we made an investment in a new electronic forklift from SWIE – a Mitsubishi Edia EM range FB18 Electric Forklift.

We know the importance of moving from gas to electric and we were extremely impressed by its compact design yet spacious cab, the Edia EM is the most intelligent and the most agile electric forklift on the market.

The Edia EM range is packed with features, it delivers the manoeuvrability, power and reliability you would expect from a Mitsubishi Forklift.

The spacious yet enclosed cab will be really appreciated by the staff, particularly on those colder and wetter mornings!

We have been impressed with the professional and communicative service from SWIE. Are you thinking of going electric? If so get in touch to see how SWIE can help.

We have plenty more environmental initiatives to work on this year and we will update you as we achieve them!

The more recent big changes we are making here at Parc Ferryman include major site improvements.

While Rapid Racking are busy kitting out one of our warehouses with more racking for high quality customer storage, Dragon Roofing & Cladding have been busy starting our roof overlay.

We are always updating and improving the Parc Ferryman site to create a better working environment for our Ferryman logistics and storage operation. But also to create more ambient warehousing space for our current and potential storage customers.

Check out the extra light being created by the roofwork:

What we can offer:

300,000sq foot of ambient warehousing capability. From offering tailored pallet storage solutions for large or small customers OR the capacity to sublet units on site – we can accommodate your requirements. 

Short term or long term solutions are available.  We want to work in partnership with you to offer a solution which fits your needs.

In conjunction with the logistics solutions available on site you needn’t go anywhere else for your storage and transportation requirements.

Our site is manned by onsite Security during hours when there are no staff scheduled and is accredited and monitored by Rentokil.

Get in touch to discuss warehousing requirements – warehouse@ferryman.org.uk or 01495222300.
