Alpha Manufacturing have recently completed a project to rapidly manufacture and assemble 3500 hand sanitizer stations destined for pubs and restaurants across the UK.
The enquiry came to Alpha from a retail POS manufacturer who was struggling to meet the unprecedented demand for the units from the leisure and hospitality sector as a result of the current pandemic.
In terms of sheet metal fabrication, the units required laser cutting, CNC folding, welding and powder coating before being assembled complete with dispenser and internal fixings and finally branded with vinyl graphics.
Since the order was placed, Alpha have produced around 450 per day to meet the demand with new production lines created and additional assembly operatives allocated to ensure a constant flow of finished units.
