| Security for cash, staff and
customers is an on-going concern for all sectors of the retail industry. Less money at the till substantially reduces the risk and value of checkout theft but the frequent removal by staff of large sums of cash poses a risk to both. |
|
Where the challenge is to reduce cash sums at point of sale, whilst
maintaining staff efficiency and customer service, the solution is to
install a market-leading pneumatic cash handling system from Air Tube
Conveyors.
Our Air Tube Conveyor system
leads to increased profitability through time saved and better utilisation
of all staff. Moving cash from the checkout to a secure area becomes a
simple, automatic operation without the need to involve senior staff.
There is no need to close checkouts as cash is transferred as part of the
operators’ normal duties. Cash is moved safely through public areas
without the need for security staff and without risk to staff or
customers. The continuous transfer from till to cash office removes peaks
in cash counting and reconciliation.
Air Tube Group is the foremost
provider of front-end retail solutions and has the most comprehensive
range of products and services in the UK. We have been working with the
UK’s leading retailers for over 20 years and Air Tube will help you take
cost out of your business through improved security, increased
productivity, improved communications, improved customer services and will
contribute overall to the protection of your assets. Our capability and
infrastructure enables rapid roll out, either internationally, nationally
or regionally.

| Today’s bank branches are keen
to receive customers in a welcoming, friendly and open environment. In
many cases a lobby or self-service area is accessible to the customer
performing certain transactions at any time of day. Unfortunately
Automatic Cash Dispensers also attract criminals. In order to avoid this
kind of attention it makes good sense to remove the temptation. |

This is precisely the objective of the Air Tube
Group CashNet system, which is designed to forward the exact amount of
money requested to any teller or ATM in the lobby or
“through-the-wall”. In addition it allows the teller to despatch to
the back office any deposits received, in order to avoid any cash in the
open customer area.
Profitability and safety are improved by CashNet
as well as our traditional offering to transfer monies to safe ATM rooms,
thereby doing away with corridors of expensive ‘dead’ space.

While doctors and nursing staff
are dedicated to looking after the patients the Air Tube system installed
within a hospital is dedicated to the transport of documents, samples and
medicines throughout the hospital. The system not only saves time but also
space: laboratories can centralised and stocks in the decentralised
medicine stores can be reduced. Furthermore, the Air Tube system helps
increase efficiency and customer service as staff are able to focus on
their core roles of patient care.
Air Tube systems have to fulfil
high demands and are becoming increasingly prominent in the capital plans
of hospitals and other healthcare establishments as a cost effective
method of improving the quality of service to patients. Air Tube
systems provide an efficient, rapid and secure means of transporting
various items such as blood and tissue samples, medicines, X-ray films and
documents from one department or ward to another, which allows a quicker
turnaround, meaning that both patients and staff can quickly receive test
results more quickly allowing for improved work flow and patient care.
Representing a major breakthrough
in the use of pneumatic tube systems within the hospital environment is
the leak proof container. Designed and developed for the healthcare sector
it uniquely meets the requirements of the HTM2009 and will satisfy the
requirements of Health & Safety Risk Management Assessments.
The innovation and design means
that the leak proof container will contain any spillages from items such
as test tubes and samples within the carrier. The leak proof sealed
carrier is the only way to minimise the risk of infection and cross
contamination during the transportation of potentially hazardous
materials.

Air
Tube systems are well suited for a variety of businesses and offices. In
administration, logistics centres, banks, printing plants, publishing
houses and shipping companies, pneumatic tube systems connect departments
and decentralized offices in other buildings via buried or exposed tubes.
Installation is possible at any time, either during construction of a new
building or retrospectively in an existing structure, and interrupting
ongoing operations is not necessary.
The system can transport
virtually anything which fits into the carriers: photographs, film,
official documents, shipping documents, delivery notes, plans, production
orders, small parts, copies, outgoing mail and internal correspondence.
At Air Tube we understand that
fast and efficient administration is vital to a company’s smooth
operation, which is why our systems deliver, 24 hours a day.

Industrial
Operations are extremely complex facilities with numerous departments and
work areas. The demands made on these operations are growing steadily. The
industrial pneumatic tube system provides fast and reliable help in
meeting these needs at a reasonable cost.
Different systems are available
for a variety of needs. For example, small parts and tools can be sent
throughout the plant on demand from a central storage area, and samples
can be transported to the laboratory. Most importantly, the carrier is
transported immediately and at a relatively high speed. The results of
analysis can be made available as soon as possible, thereby speeding the
decision-making process for further action.
Whether installed in a new
building or added retrospectively the industrial air tube system provides
customised transport. A variety of standard modules offer the dimensions,
transport weights and system capacity, which will best fulfil the
customer’s individual needs. Furthermore, any special environmental
requirements are taken into consideration during construction of the
system.
Our industrial pneumatic tube
system can transport virtually anything that’s fits into one of the
special carriers: cold or hot steel samples, liquids, powders, granulated
materials, aggregates, small parts or tools. The carriers can be loaded
and unloaded either manually or automatically.
Warehousing and distribution
systems are used to transport official documents, shipping documents,
outgoing mail, plans, orders, etc providing greater productivity and
profitability.
