CLS - Brands, Lda®, a leader in the personal protective equipment and safety clothing sector, is excited to announce significant progress in the development of its new facilities. The company is about to reach a new milestone in its journey with the construction of a state-of-the-art logistics warehouse, which will house a robotised picking and packing unit. This initiative is aimed at boosting the production and expansion of the company's own-brand product ranges, which comprise FOR WALK® GLOVA®,FIELD® and FORWEAR®.

    Over the last two years, the FOR WALK® own brand has shown remarkable success and growth within the industry, achieving an average turnover of 5 million euros. This achievement has motivated CLS - Brands, Lda® to invest in expanding production capacity, equipping it with more modern and advanced techniques, equipment and technologies to meet growing demand and boost export operations.

   In addition to investing in FOR WALK® Footwear, CLS - Brands, Lda®  is also committed to the continuous development and broadening of its product range. Brands such as GLOVA® - Safety Gloves, FIELD® - Personal Protective Equipment and FORWEAR® - Personal Protective Clothing are undergoing expansion and enhancement, aimed at strengthening the company's position in the PPE market.

    One of the most important aspects of the innovative logistics warehouse is its advanced, fully robotised Picking and Packing unit. "Using a Kardex system, CLS Brands will be one of the few companies in the sector with a fully automated software/platform that integrates all logistics sectors in exact time and with much greater efficiency, which aims to increase shipping capacity by 40%, which promises not only to revolutionise, but to profoundly transform the efficiency of order preparation, packaging and shipping operations.", explains Diogo Amorim, Programmer at CLS - Brands, Lda®. 

   This cutting-edge automated platform, combined with the integration of state-of-the-art systems, will allow the company to meticulously optimise the entire order preparation process, driving a substantial increase in the speed of deliveries. In addition, the implementation of new processes and technologies will facilitate day-to-day logistics and make deliveries faster and more secure. This cutting-edge technology will not only ensure speed, but will also raise standards of excellence, underpinning the highest quality of service for valued customers. This platform will also enable close and engaging interaction with customers, providing a more agile and intuitive experience throughout the sales process.

    The new warehouse and associated facilities are expected to be completed between mid and late 2024. These new facilities will cover an impressive area of more than seven thousand square metres and will be a decisive contribution to the work and safety textiles sector at national and international level.

    Strategically located close to the A28 motorway access (Viana do Castelo-Porto), this new infrastructure will serve as a reference showroom and warehouse in the Iberian Peninsula for safety and work protection products (PPE). This reinforces CLS - Brands, Lda®'s determination to lead the way in innovation and excellence in the sector.

    CLS - Brands, Lda® hopes that these initiatives will not only boost its own position in the market, but also contribute to the growth and development of the personal protective equipment (PPE) industry.
