Logistical solutions for hanging goods (GoH)

Hanging garments on hangers is a very special logistical challenge. DFT has been mastering this specialty since 1954 with the aim of mapping the complete process from goods receipt to storage, order picking and goods out. This has resulted in an extensive portfolio of products for warehouse technology in the hanging goods sector, which has been optimized through many projects.

Since the beginning of 2000, DFT has been involved in the efficient logistical handling of flat-folded goods in the fashion industry. From split-tray sorters to pocket sorters, tried and tested solutions have been developed that have been installed in many projects worldwide and are still in operation today. To this day, DFT’s focus is on high-volume throughput and high system reliability. There are just few fashion brands in Europe that have not become DFT customers over the years. New brands from North and South America have been added in recent years and long-standing existing customers from Europe have successfully implemented further projects with DFT.
