Clarus Glassboards is one of the leading manufacturers of innovative glass dry erase boards. The company recently expanded their production warehouse with the help of H3 Construction.

Clarus Glassboards sees a need for expansion

By providing custom solutions, we were able to improve shipping and receiving operations with minimal disruptions to the client’s daily workflow. Our scope of work ranged from the expansion of the warehouse entrance to the expanding of the internal warehouse work area.

Improving manufacturing efficiency through accessibility

H3 converted an existing 4-foot deck height loading dock area into an 18 x 50-foot, truck-accessible loading ramp. This change allowed Clarus Glassboards to take deliveries off of lowboy trailers directly inside the warehouse and onto the production floor.

The job also involved 3,000 square feet of interior warehouse floor removal, 120 cubic yards of excavation in various equipment pits, 300 linear feet of plumbing trenches, and 200 linear feet of utility trenches to allow new production machinery drainage.

Specialty construction considerations

H3 Construction installed utility trenches to guide glass-infused water to be deposited into a dewatering system. This system removes unwanted particles, helps manage waste, and allows the recycling of valuable materials, improving the efficiency of operations at Clarus Glassboards

Our crews enjoyed meeting the challenges of this project while adhering to the client’s timeline, staying under budget, and minimizing the project’s impact on the production floor staff.
