In the system Fulfilment Factory of SSI Schaefer uses a system of air transport with ‘loaderss' apt standard to be instrumented with transponders RFID.

Because of other current tendencies like the fast changes that produce in the fashion and in the development of products, the products to store in a centre of distribution are not of long life, what means an almost insuperable challenge in terms of the placing of the products in the systems of traditional storage. To confront to these variable requests of the future and at the same time reduce to the minimum the expenses of the distribution, SSI Schaefer developed the solution of Fulfilment Factory.
