What sets your solutions apart from others in the warehouse automation market?
We are offering solutions that enhance warehouse safety, speed, and efficiency. With 30 years of experience, we understand the challenges faced at loading bays and entrance automation. Our solutions are built to withstand heavy loads, high-frequency operations, and tough working conditions, making them dependable. What sets us apart is our precise engineering, uncompromising focus on safety, and ability to deliver solutions tailored to the unique requirements of each warehouse.
Are your systems customisable based on specific industry needs?
Yes, all our solutions are customisable. Different industries face different challenges—pharma and food warehouses require air-tight, hygienic doors, while automotive and manufacturing facilities need robust, heavy-duty equipment to manage large volumes. We offer solutions tailored to these specific needs like high-speed doors for cleanrooms and food processing units, insulated sliding doors for cold storage applications, and rugged dock levelers and dock shelters for industrial use.
How do you ensure your products are future-proof and scalable as warehouse needs evolve?
We design our products to grow along with our customers’ evolving needs. Some of our systems are modular in nature, allowing them to be expanded or upgraded over time. Many of our solutions feature smart control sensors and automation options that can integrate seamlessly with warehouse management systems or existing building infrastructure. Our high-speed doors can be linked to sensors and access systems for hands-free operation. Whether a customer is beginning with basic automation or operating a fully smart warehouse, our solutions are built with the flexibility to adapt to future needs.
How do your systems enhance safety for workers and goods during loading and unloading?
Safety is at the heart of all our designs. Our dock levelers have anti-slip checkered platforms and built-in safety features that prevent workers and forklifts from falling off the edge. High-speed doors come with sensors that stop the door if a person or vehicle is detected. Dock shelters create a sealed environment to protect goods from weather, dust, and pests. We follow global safety standards in design and installation to minimise the risk of accidents and product damage during loading and unloading.
Are your products compliant with global safety and environmental standards, such as OSHA or ISO?
Yes, our products are developed with a focus on global safety and environmental compliance. Gandhi Automations is certified to ISO 9001:2015 for Quality Management, ISO 14001:2015 for Environmental Management, and ISO 45001:2018 for Occupational Health and Safety, showing our commitment to delivering reliable, sustainable, and safe solutions. Our products comply with important European safety standards such as EN 13241-1 for industrial and commercial doors, EN 12453 for the safe use of power-operated doors, and EN 1398 for dock levelers. These ensure our solutions meet high performance benchmarks, while supporting safety, durability, and environmental responsibility across diverse industries.
What kind of training do you offer to ensure proper and safe use of your equipment?
We offer complete support—from installation to after-sales service. Once a product is installed, our team imparts training to the warehouse staff on how to operate it safely and efficiently. We also provide user manuals and basic troubleshooting norms to ensure smooth day-to-day use. For long-term reliability, we offer Annual Maintenance Contracts and have a service network across India, along with a global presence in over 72 countries. Our trained technicians respond quickly and work to minimise downtime, helping customers maintain uninterrupted operations.
Can automation in this part of the supply chain contribute to reducing a warehouse’s overall carbon footprint?
Yes, automation can help reduce a warehouse’s overall carbon footprint. Our solutions are designed to improve energy efficiency and minimise waste. For instance, our high-speed doors operate quickly, which help maintain the indoor temperature. This reduces the load on AC or cold storage systems, saving energy. Our dock shelters and seals prevent outside air, dust, and moisture from entering the warehouse, which improves insulation. Faster loading and unloading saves time and reduces energy use and fuel consumption.
