Baustoffwerke Havelland: Berlin, Germany

Backbone of production

12 solid hours of operation every day, 230 days per year, up to 5 tonnes per cycle and incredibly important for production: Baustoffwerke Havelland is a producer of building materials and, since March 2017, dependent on the Yale GDP120DC Heavy Duty Forklift Truck supplied by Yale dealership MF Gabelstapler Service GmbH. Baustoffwerke Havelland is located north-west of Berlin where it produces bricks for the building industry.

The company supplies a modular kit for the building industry. Architects send CAD data directly to the sand-lime brick manufacturer, who then produces the precision “plane-elements” ready to be assembled at the building site. Although this makes things much easier for the builder, it is a tough challenge for the producer: the plane-elements come in various sizes and widths of up to one metre. Because they are sold by the piece, palletising makes no sense: a forklift truck is required at the end of the plane-element production line. The truck grabs up to 20 elements with a total weight of up to 5 tonnes and transports the package to the company’s outdoor storage area. When it’s time for delivery to the site, the forklift picks up the specified items and places them on a lorry – round the clock, 230 days a year.

    What is a Stakeholder?

    A stakeholder is a Mircosite that has the power to highlight a product or service, launch a promotion, or promote brand awareness to the construction industry in a way that full websites or more traditional marketing cannot.

UK Construction Online is updated daily, with the latest news across all sectors within the construction industry and all stakeholders are promoted on both social media and to a mailing list of over 122,000 subscribers.
