How ZOLT Group Helped Volvo Group Australia Elevate Warehouse Storage, Identification, and Efficiency with Custom Labelling & Signage Solutions

Written By Lawrence Tan

When APC Storage Technology Pty Ltd, one of our trusted industry partners, reached out to collaborate on supporting their client—Volvo Group Australia—with warehouse labelling, signage, and other operational solutions, the ZOLT Group team was ready to help. 

We knew that delivering the right outcome required more than supplying labels and signs. It required a deep understanding of Volvo’s warehouse environment, operational demands, and global standards. 

 

Starting with Understanding

Our process began with a detailed site visit to Volvo’s existing warehouse facility. We spent time walking the operation with their team, reviewing racking layouts, observing workflow challenges, and understanding their logistics and safety requirements firsthand. 

Through this assessment, we quickly identified their key challenge: Improving warehouse organisation and safety while supporting efforts to maximise cubic utilisation and store a wide range of product sizes efficiently. 

This included the need for a comprehensive, compliant, and durable warehouse labelling and signage system that aligned with both Volvo’s global standards and Australia’s WHS requirements. 

 

The Challenge

Volvo Group Australia required a warehouse solutions partner who could deliver: 

  • A complete warehouse labelling and identification system that was clear, durable, and optimised for high‑traffic industrial environments 

  • WHS‑compliant safety signage installed in accordance with Australian Standards 

  • Systemised identification that would support their engineered storage expansion, including pallet racking and vertical utilisation 

  • Integration with APC’s customised racking design, ensuring labels and signage aligned with new structural configurations 

Together with APC, Volvo was striving to maximise building height, match global storage models, and improve operational efficiency—requiring a labelling and signage system that enhanced, rather than hindered, the upgraded storage infrastructure. 

 

Our Customised Solution

ZOLT Group worked closely with APC and the Volvo team to deliver a tailored warehouse labelling and signage package that aligned perfectly with their operational and compliance needs. 

✔️ Custom Warehouse Labelling System 

We designed and supplied durable, high‑contrast labels for: 

  • Pallet racking locations 

  • Beam levels 

  • Aisle identification 

  • Bulk storage zones 

These labels were engineered for long‑range scanning, visibility, and longevity—critical factors for a high‑activity warehouse environment. 

✔️ WHS‑Compliant Safety Signage 

We supplied and installed signage that met key standards including AS 1319‑1994, ensuring compliance across: 

  • Hazard and warning zones 

  • Mandatory PPE areas 

  • Traffic and forklift routes 

  • Emergency exits and equipment locations 

✔️ Integration with APC’s Storage Engineering 

Our labelling and signage were fully coordinated with APC’s custom racking features, including longer uprights and wider beam configurations designed to fit four pallets per level. 

This seamless integration ensured: 

  • Clean workflows 

  • Accurate location identification 

  • Zero interference with structural or operational elements 

 

 

The Result

We are proud to have partnered with APC and Volvo Group Australia to deliver a warehouse solution that enhances: 

  • Operational efficiency 

  • Safety and compliance 

  • Navigation and workflow clarity 

  • Storage productivity and cubic utilisation 

By combining APC’s engineered racking solutions with ZOLT Group’s specialised labelling and signage systems, Volvo now benefits from a high‑performing, clearly identified, and compliant warehouse environment. 

 

Our Approach

At ZOLT Group, we believe that the best warehouse solutions come from partnership and understanding. By taking the time to learn Volvo’s operations and collaborating closely with APC, we delivered solutions that not only meet today’s needs but adapt to future growth. 

 

The Takeaway

Effective warehouse performance relies on more than storage systems—it requires: 

  • Clear, durable identification 

  • Compliant and strategic safety signage 

  • Integrated collaboration between engineering and operational partners 

  • A deep understanding of your unique requirements 

This is why companies like APC trust ZOLT Group to support their clients with comprehensive warehouse labelling, signage, and optimisation solutions.
