Remstar equipment helps reduce the amount of physical space required. “Floor to truss” space maximization is how Remstar can reclaim up to 85% of the space used by file cabinets, tool, drawer systems, shelving and rack.

Remstar customer’s can reduce their total building construction footprint by up to 15% by using Remstar equipment throughout their facility.

The Remstar Electric Lateral Filing System (ELF) is a series of vertically arranged rotating carriers controlled by an electronic keypad or software. Files are delivered to an ergonomically correct height, eliminating walk and search time, improving filing productivity up to 56 percent.

The Remstar ELF offers more than 2,500 linear inches of letter-sized filing space, the equivalent of approximately 16-five drawer file cabinets. By taking advantage of unused overhead space, it can hold the same number of files as traditional five-drawer filing cabinets or lateral files in 60 to 75 percent less space.

How do organizations continue to manage theirfacilities while reducingtheir impact on the

environment? By reducing the carbon footprint in any and every opportunity.

The business case for building greenusing sustainable design and construction is supported by the three cornerstones, known as thetriple bottom line: environmentalstewardship, social responsibility and economic prosperity.

Remstar can help in your mission tobuild sustainable green buildings orredesign existing buildings to meet green standards.

Defining the Triple Bottom Line

1 PerformanceEnvironmental Stewardship:protecting air, water, land and ecosystems, as well as conservingresources, including fossil fuels,thus preserving the earth’sresources for future generations.

2 ErgonomicsSocial Responsibility:improving the quality of life andequity for individuals, communi-ties and society as a whole.

3 ProductivityEconomic Prosperity: reducing costs, adding value and creating economic opportunity for individuals, organizations, communities and nations.

Traditional filing systems require users to bend, stoop, twist,reach, push, and pull to store and retrieve items, creatingfatigue and reducing productivity. The ergonomic designand operation of the Remstar ELF system is based onprinciples of universal design that minimize physical effortsuch as twisting, bending and tight grasping.

Every Remstar MediaStation ELF complies fully with the“Barrier Removal Act” to accommodate your entire work force.

All Remstar systems eliminate fatigue by automaticallybringing items to the operator allowing more productivityfrom all of your work force regardless of ability. Creating a fully accessible work environment with 100% access to stored items.
