Material Handling Solutions
ZIGR delivers comprehensive material handling solutions optimized for mission-critical logistics, industrial operations, and national security environments. Material handling equipment falls into four primary categories: storage and handling equipment, industrial trucks, bulk material handling equipment, and engineered systems. Our capabilities span the design, procurement, installation, and integration of these systems within both secure and commercial facilities. ZIGR’s approach focuses on throughput efficiency, safety, and compliance, with particular expertise in supporting DoD supply chains, MRO operations, and defense-industrial base (DIB) infrastructure. Our subject matter experts evaluate client requirements across lifecycle operations—ranging from warehousing and staging to deployment and sustainment—and deliver tailored, standards-driven solutions that maximize operational resilience and asset velocity.
ZIGR designs and implements modular racking, shelving, mezzanines, and pallet flow systems engineered to maximize cubic storage utilization while maintaining ergonomic access and throughput efficiency. We specialize in integrating high-density storage solutions into space-constrained environments such as hardened structures, SCIFs, and urban logistics hubs. Our configurations are optimized for vertical lift modules (VLMs), barcode and RFID tracking, and smart inventory management systems, ensuring compliance with DoD or GSA facility standards.
For clients managing granular or aggregate materials—such as fuels, aggregates, grains, or construction commodities—ZIGR provides heavy-duty conveyor systems, hoppers, stackers, reclaimers, and silo management infrastructure. These systems are engineered for high-volume, continuous-flow operations and can be tailored for rail-to-warehouse transfer, port logistics, or theater-level supply nodes. We also perform throughput simulations and load-bearing analysis for high-risk or expeditionary applications.
ZIGR provides specialized material handling solutions for hazardous materials, including flammable, corrosive, radioactive, and biohazardous substances. Our systems include compliant containment enclosures, explosion-proof lift equipment, chemical-resistant racking, and integrated fire suppression. We align with OSHA, NFPA, and DoD 4145.26M standards, ensuring that storage and transfer processes reduce risk exposure and regulatory noncompliance. HAZMAT material handling is often integrated into our broader design of logistics nodes near military installations and defense manufacturing zones.
For the secure handling of weapons, munitions, and explosive ordnance, ZIGR delivers hardened transport systems, guided handling mechanisms, and vibration-isolated storage units. Our solutions support armory logistics, depot-level sustainment, and munitions transport both CONUS and OCONUS. We design for MIL-STD-129 and 1901A compliance, and integrate access-controlled handling zones, lift-assisted loading systems, and remote monitoring sensors for security and accountability.
ZIGR integrates mechanical handling systems including powered conveyors, overhead cranes, scissor lifts, AGVs (automated guided vehicles), and robotic palletizers. These systems are engineered for continuous uptime, minimal maintenance, and heavy-load environments, making them ideal for defense MRO depots, OEM production facilities, and large-scale logistics centers. We offer lifecycle support, retrofit upgrades, and controls integration for Industry 4.0 alignment and predictive maintenance.
