Warehouse and Logistics

At Silmid, our state-of-the-art, paperless warehouse enables us to efficiently support the evolving needs of both our suppliers and customers. With digital processes and real-time visibility, we ensure fast, accurate, and reliable fulfilment across all online and offline channels.

Silmid’s aerospace warehouse and logistics services support customers with specialist storage, temperature-managed warehousing, refrigerated and freezer storage, separated chemical storage, shelf-life management, same-day dispatch, and local delivery support for eligible key account customers.

Warehouse Capabilities

Temperature Managed Warehouse

Due to the specialist nature of our product range, our warehouse environment is managed to ensure that the ambient temperature does not drop below 10°C during the winter months.

Freezer Storage

Our storage facility includes both fridge and freezer storage for temperature-critical items. Freezing ensures that shelf life can be maximised, while fridge storage is used primarily for the correct storage of technical adhesive products.

Paperless WMS

Silmid continually invests in modern IT systems. With our paperless Warehouse Management System (WMS), we achieve incredibly accurate stock counts and exceptionally short order picking times, allowing us to fulfil web orders until 5:30pm.

Narrow Aisle Pallet Warehouse

Our state-of-the-art distribution centre in Coleshill was designed with efficiency in mind and uses high bay, narrow aisle pallet racking to maximise the available space. This capacity is utilised for both stock and contract customer storage requirements.

Separated Storage For Incompatible Materials

To maintain safety and protect product integrity, all chemicals in our warehouse are stored in carefully designated zones based on compatibility. This ensures that reactive or sensitive materials are never stored together, reducing the risk of contamination or degradation. By keeping products properly segregated, we can guarantee that every item leaving our facility maintains its quality and performance, giving our customers confidence in every order.

Shelf Life Management

Our warehouse management system continuously monitors shelf-life data, tracking expiry dates in real time. Products nearing expiration are automatically flagged for customer review before shipment. This process ensures that only in-date, fully compliant materials are released for order, reducing the risk of unserviceable items entering the aerospace supply chain.

Temperature-Controlled Chemical Storage and Product Integrity

Silmid supports specialist aerospace materials with temperature-managed warehousing, refrigerated and freezer storage, separated storage for incompatible materials, and real-time shelf-life tracking through its paperless WMS. These controls help protect product quality, reduce the risk of unsuitable materials entering the aerospace supply chain, and support reliable fulfillment for customers handling technical adhesives and other sensitive chemical products.

Logistics Services

Same Day Despatch

Our WMS systems and automation within our sales order processing system means that orders can be processed from website to despatch in under ten minutes. If the product is in stock it will ship on the date of order.
