With real estate at a premium and its business growing, Julius Blum maximizes production in Austria with efficient materials handling on several levels. In the U.S., we spread out. In Europe, they move up. And that's exactly what Julius Blum Inc. did at a manufacturing plant in Bregenz, Austria. It even went a little further with that concept. Not only did Blum go up but it also went underground to make maximum use of its real estate. The main plant, which is three stories tall, connects to a two-level plant by a 100-yard long tunnel, explains Wiegbbert Haller, logistic leader.
