Salpomec designs and delivers garment conveyor systems for garments on hangers (GOH). Our systems support efficient garment flow in fashion and apparel logistics, industrial laundries, e-commerce returns, garment rental operations and 3PL/4PL warehouses.

Designed for garments on hangers

Garments on hangers require a different handling approach than boxed goods, pallets or standard parcels. They need to move without unnecessary folding, stacking or manual transfer.


Salpomec systems are designed for GOH logistics, where garments move through the facility while staying on hangers. This supports smoother handling in operations where garment condition,  sorting accuracy and flow are important.


Typical applications include:

  • Fashion and apparel logistics
  • Industrial laundries
  • E-commerce returns
  • Garment rental operations
  • 3PL and 4PL logistics
  • Preloved and second-hand fashion
  • Distribution centres
  • Finishing and packing areas

WHERE GARMENT CONVEYOR SYSTEMS ARE USED

Garment conveyor systems can transport garments between different areas and processes within a facility. Depending on the operation, conveyors can connect receiving, sorting, storage, finishing, packing and dispatch areas.


Systems can be designed for continuous garment movement or for routing garments to specific destinations using switches, identification and control technologies.


Salpomec conveyor solutions can be adapted to different layouts, capacities and garment handling processes.

GARMENT CONVEYOR TECHNOLOGIES

Different garment flows require different conveyor technologies. Salpomec designs conveyor systems according to the required capacity, routing, available space and the way garments need to move through the operation.

Clip conveyor systems

Garments are transported using clips attached to the conveyor system. Clip conveyors can be used for controlled garment movement between different areas and processes.

Pin conveyor systems

Pin conveyor systems provide another method for transporting hanging garments through the facility and can be integrated into larger garment handling systems.

Automatic  switches

Automatic switches can direct garments to different conveyor lines, storage areas or processing stations. Routing can be combined with identification and control technologies depending on the application.

INTEGRATION WITH GARMENT HANDLING EQUIPMENT

Garment conveyor systems can be integrated with other technologies to create an efficient and connected garment handling process.


Depending on the operation, the system can be connected with:


  • Gravity rail systems
  • Garment lifts
  • Garment storage systems
  • RFID identification
  • Automatic switches
  • Garment counters
  • Bagging machines and steam tunnels
  • Truck loading systems

These technologies can be integrated according to the requirements of the garment flow, facility layout and level of automation.

 
 

BUILT AROUND YOUR PROCESS

Every garment handling operation is different. Required capacity, garment flow, available space, existing equipment and the level of automation all influence the conveyor system design.


Salpomec designs garment conveyor systems around the customer’s actual operation. A project can include:


  • > Reviewing the existing garment flow
  • > Identifying manual handling points and     bottlenecks
  • > Designing the conveyor layout
  • > Selecting suitable conveyor and routing technologies
  • >Integrating the system with existing equipment
  • >Installation and commissioning
  • >Maintenance and system development

The result is a garment conveyor system designed to work as part of the customer’s overall GOH operation.

EXPERIENCE IN GARMENT HANDLING

Salpomec has over 40 years of experience in garment handling and GOH logistics. Our experience covers garment conveyor systems, gravity rail systems, storage, sorting, loading and supporting garment handling technologies.


This experience allows us to look beyond individual conveyor components and understand how the system needs to work as part of the customer’s complete garment flow.
