Livestock Identification Services Needed More Storage Without Wasting Resources
Livestock Identification Services (LIS) was expanding into a new facility and needed a cost-effective way to increase their archival storage. With a commitment to sustainability, they also wanted to minimize waste while keeping costs under control. Rather than starting from scratch, they sought a solution that could repurpose existing shelving while seamlessly integrating new storage components.
Westbow Systems was the perfect partner to make this happen.
Reusing, Expanding, and Recycling for a Smarter Storage Solution
To meet LIS’s needs, Westbow Systems designed and implemented a solution that:
Reused Shelving from a Previous Foothills Systems Project – Maximizing available resources to cut costs.
Added 80% New Shelving – Expanding storage capacity while maintaining consistency with existing structures.
Recycled Remaining Materials – Reducing waste and keeping the project environmentally responsible.
Customized the System for Archival Storage – Ensuring LIS had an optimized layout for their specific needs.
This approach demonstrated Westbow Systems’ ability to balance cost savings, functionality, and sustainability—all critical factors for LIS.
A Budget-Friendly and Sustainable Outcome
LIS was highly satisfied with the results:
Significant Cost Savings – By reusing materials and strategically integrating new shelving, project costs were kept under control.
Seamless Expansion – The combination of old and new storage provided a cohesive, functional solution.
Environmental Responsibility – Recycling and repurposing materials minimized waste and aligned with LIS’s values.
This project highlights how Westbow Systems delivers smart, cost-conscious storage solutions while supporting sustainability efforts in Western Canada.
