LAFLIN, Penn. (May 6, 2015)—Golden Technologies’ primary lift chair distribution center in Laflin, Pennsylvania is undergoing a substantial rennovation aimed at improving the speed of product distribution, while significantly reducing the number of steps employees take every day.

“Prior to our renovations, each Golden employee walked anywhere from 17 to 22 miles every day, moving lift chairs from our freight trucks to their designated location on the floor and then to the loading docks. With our new system of power conveyors, racking and a re-organization of the entire floor, movement of product through the building will be much more efficient and faster,” explains Dave Leiby, Golden’s vice president of finance, who led the project and designed the new layout. Golden moved into the new distribution center in 2014, doubling its warehouse space from 50,000 square feet to 100,000 square feet.
