Case study Stolp: 'We are pleased that we have teamed up with Axtra'

Axtra helps many companies active in the food industry, a diverse and interesting industry. Stolp International came to us when they were looking for a solution to their problem. Curious about Stolp International's challenge and our solution? Then read on quickly.

Foods from every corner of the world

Stolp International imports and distributes food products from all over the world. Think of dried subtropical fruits, nuts, seeds and kernels, ginger, canned fruit and coconut. Because Stolp International buys directly from the source, they are assured of the highest quality. What Stolp International is most proud of? Their excellent value for money, of course!

Hygiene and safety

Because Stolp International works with food on a daily basis, hygiene is an important part of their business operations. Due to this hygiene, the wooden pallets of certain goods must be replaced by plastic pallets. In addition, damaged loads must also be replaced regularly. Of course, all this must be done in a safe and efficient manner. Stolp International turned to Axtra for a solution to this problem.

The Axtra Spinturner pallet changer

“We soon found Axtra via the internet. On their website we found the Spinturner, a stationary pallet changer; this seemed like a perfect solution to our problem!” says Henk-Wim Knoppersen of Stolp International. The pallet changer that Stolp International found on our website is an all-in device that can be used to change pallets or goods. By placing the goods in it with a forklift or electric hand pallet truck, they can be rotated 180°; then the pallets or goods can be easily exchanged. “We contacted them, Axtra then advised us extensively about our problem and the possible solution.”

try before you buy

“Before we made the investment in the pallet changer, Axtra tested for us whether this device was suitable for our application. We have sent various foodstuffs for this.” says Henk-Wim Knoppersen. “This gave us a familiar feeling, it is nice that Axtra offers the opportunity to do this.” During this testing phase, we came to the conclusion that the pallet changer needed an adjustable pressure valve, as not all foodstuffs are created equal. Each type of food requires its own hydraulic working pressure. The ultimate solution to Stolp International's challenge was therefore an existing device with a bit of customization.

Short lines and good service

“Axtra is a reliable partner. The lines are short, the service is good and fast. We are glad that we have teamed up with Axtra. Our colleagues on the work floor are also very satisfied, they think the device works perfectly!” says Henk-Wim Knoppersen.
