Interdean Responds to Recent Figures Showing High Amounts of Ukrainians Moving Abroad

Interdean Responds to Recent Figures Showing High Amounts of Ukrainians Moving Abroad

(PRWEB UK) 23 April 2013

According to the Global Voices Online, six and a half million Ukrainians, or 14.4 percent of the population, have immigrated to other countries. Further information showed that some of the most popular destinations to immigrate to include Russia, the Czech Republic, Hungry, Poland, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Such high movements of population to other European countries has led to a shrink in the population with around 330,000 per year leaving to live and work abroad.

The recent change is said to be caused by unemployment, low wages for those that are employed and a lack of opportunities and has become known as the 'suitcase mood.' The phrase, penned by experts, describes the feeling that Ukrainian residents have highlighting the desire to leave their home country and travel to areas with more prospects.

The company, who are based in 123 locations within Europe, offer services including shipping, storage and excess baggage solutions for a range of worldwide destinations including Australia, Japan and France. A representative explained, 'Suitcase mood has dramatically impacted the population of Ukraine with huge amounts of residents leaving each year in search of a better life and higher income in Western Europe and neighbouring Russia. Migration is affected by recession and the figures simply reflect this, as a moving company, any moving is good news and we look forward to helping people move people throughout Europe in the near future.'

Interdean continues to follow migration news.

Creative Safety Supply is Now Offering SafetyTac Floor Tape for Aisle Markings

Creative Safety Supply is Now Offering SafetyTac Floor Tape for Aisle Markings

SafetyTac Aisle Marking Tape

Lake Oswego, OR (PRWEB) April 03, 2013

Occupational safety in the workplace is important to business owners as well as employees. Aisles that are properly marked can be a simple solution for creating a safe work environment. OSHA has set guidelines and regulations for marking standards at warehouses, factories, and other similar structures. Creative Safety Supply is now offering SafetyTac aisle marking tape that complies with OSHA's standards.

Osha has provided a few instructions for marking aisles and the minimum acceptable widths of aisles in industrial operations. The first is that a line should be used to designate the aisle, although that line may be any color or combination of colors as long as it clearly identifies the aisle as such. The lines may be composed of dots, square, strip or continuous, so long as the entire aisle dimensions are sufficiently covered. Safety Tac tape is available through Creative Safety Supply in different shapes, designs, and ten colors as recommended by OSHA.

OSHA also requires that every aisle marking be at least 2 inches wide, and recommends an aisle marking width between 2 to 6 inches. The width of the aisle itself, on the other hand, must be at least 3 feet wider than the largest piece of equipment that will travel through it, and in no case narrower than 4 feet in width. SafetyTac tape is available in 2, 3, 4 and 6 inch widths and thereby complies with OSHA's width standards.

SafetyTac tape is considered the strongest industrial floor tape in the market. It has withstood the toughest tests and trials on the planet including high volume traffic from forklifts dragging heavily loaded pallets across its surface, as well as heavy trucks and tons of foot traffic. Aisle marking projects can be completed in no time with the simple and easy peel-&-stick installation. SafetyTac's tough exterior material and super strong adhesive backing makes cleaning a snap.

A maintenance worker commented, "SafetyTac tape has saved man hours when it comes to applying aisle markings and has made my life simpler."

For more information about SafetyTac Aisle Marking Tape, please visit http://www.creativesafetysupply.com/Aisle-Marking-Tape/ or call toll-free (866)777-1360 to speak with a professional representative.

Now it?s OK to Abuse Your Bostwick Consistometer

Now it's OK to Abuse Your Bostwick Consistometer

CSC Bostwich Consistometer

Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) March 29, 2013

The CSC Scientific Bostwick Consistometer is a simple rugged stainless steel trough, with a gate and calibrated etched markings on the bottom. It has been used since 1925 to measure the thickness or consistency of products like sauces, toppings, slurries, paints and other flowing materials.

The Bostwick is a tough device suited to the harsh conditions of a manufacturing site. It takes ingenuity to find ways to destroy it. King Cong like personnel find ways to make the Bostwick inoperable, but most of the serious damage happens when it is repeatedly dropped from varying heights onto concrete floors or when it gets under forklift trucks. These actions tend to bend it to a degree that makes it not function.

CSC has devised an optional add-on called the Abuse Protection Option (APO) that minimized damage from all but the most creative abusers. The APO can be added to a new unit before shipment or when a Bostwick is being repaired by CSC.

Many users have asked why CSC waited so long. It was a longtime customer who devised the solution. The APO is available form stock.

Check out the APO at The CSC Abuse Protection Option for The Bostwick.

Clearer Road: Truck Rental in Canada Industry Market Research Report Now Available from IBISWorld

Clearer Road: Truck Rental in Canada Industry Market Research Report Now Available from IBISWorld

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 05, 2013

The Truck Rental industry operated in a volatile environment over the past five years, according to IBISWorld industry analyst Kevin Boyland. The recession and its aftermath decreased activity in the truck transportation sector and markedly decreased housing construction activity; as a result, demand from the commercial and consumer markets waned in 2008 and 2009. Amid the tough economic climate, many surviving trucking firms opted for truck leases over purchasing vehicles outright to improve flexibility and lower operational costs.

Economic uncertainty has forced industry operators to streamline operations and improve efficiencies to maintain profitability, says Boyland. "One strategy the industry's largest operators undertook was to maintain and expand economies of scale through mergers and acquisitions." Indeed, major player Ryder Systems Inc. completed five industry-related acquisitions from 2009 to 2011. As consolidation within the Truck Rental industry increases, the number of industry firms is expected to decline 2.0% per year on average to 251 in 2013. The industry currently has a low level of market share concentration. Other major companies include Amerco (operating through U-Haul International), Penske Truck Leasing and Enterprise Holdings.

Following significant recessionary declines, a government stimulus package served to increase the number of housing starts. As more consumers moved, demand for truck rentals from this market increased. Although demand for truck rentals and leases waxed and waned, the industry received an overall net increase in demand over the five years to 2013, albeit a small one. As a result, revenue is estimated to grow at a meager annualized rate of 0.4% over the period to $ 2.5 billion in 2013.

Increasing emissions and fuel-efficiency regulations are anticipated to drive demand from the commercial market going forward. Indeed, regulation aimed at lowering emissions from long-haul tractor-trailers and large pickup trucks by 2018 will require downstream customers to either purchase or lease new vehicles. IBISWorld expects that the majority of firms will lease their trucks from industry operators as downstream fleet operators seek more predictability and flexibility in their cost structures. As trucking companies replace their fleets with more fuel-efficient leased trucks and housing construction activity recovers, revenue is forecast to grow over the five years to 2018.

Bigge Bets On Xtreme Manufacturing Forklifts

Bigge Bets On Xtreme Manufacturing Forklifts

Xtreme Forklift on the Job

San Leandro, CA (PRWEB) March 25, 2013

Bigge Crane and Rigging is now an authorized dealer for Las Vegas based Xtreme Manufacturing, maker of best-in-class forklifts. Bigge has these forklifts in stock for sale and lease through nationwide network of locations.

What makes Xtreme Manufacturing forklifts the best is the experience the Xtreme team brings to the table. Xtreme was a long time forklift leasing company when they thought that they could do better than lifts currently in the market. Xtreme then went about building a better machine, and have succeeded in producing fourteen forklift models with superior design and construction than their peers. Xtreme Manufacturing forklifts benefit from a much more rugged design than their competitors without sacrificing flexibility or operator comfort. Xtreme also has one of the best warranties in the business, warranting the frame and chassis for 10 years, the boom and rollers for five years, and the engine, electrical, transmission, drive axels and hydraulic components for two years.

An innovator in crane and rigging solutions for nearly a century, Bigge was impressed by the Xtreme designs enough to partner with them as an authorized dealer. Bigge currently has available for lease three Xtreme models, the XR3034, and ultra-high capacity roller boom lift with 15 ton capacity and 34' max lift height, its slightly smaller sibling the XR2450, with a 12 ton capacity and 50' max lift height, and the high capacity XR2045 with 10 ton capacity and 45 feet max lift height.

"Bigge is excited to be carrying the Xtreme product line," said Joe Nelms, VP of Sales and Marketing, "Many of our rental customers are already familiar with their equipment and have wanted us to carry them. We are happy to be affiliated with such an innovative brand." So next time you need forklifts for your job, you can go ordinary, or go Xtreme.

Consumer Capital Group Releases Fiscal Year 2012 Results

Consumer Capital Group Releases Fiscal Year 2012 Results

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 05, 2013

Consumer Capital Group, Inc. (OTCBB: CCGN - News) ("CCG" or the "The Company"), primarily engaged in the development and operation of its retailing website "Chinese Consumer Market Network" which allows third-party merchants to sell their general merchandise products directly to consumers in the PRC and the U.S., as well as debit card business and meat distribution business, today announced that it released its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Jack Gao, President and Chief Executive Officer of CCG, commented, "Even though our e-commerce business decreased compared to 2011, we made some progress in our debit cards business. We are collaborating with Union Pay and Fuxin Bank in China to issue cobranded debit cards. The cards have all the financial functions of traditional bank cards and provide discounts and refunds to the holders from their consumptions with participating dealers. We made progress in constructing and testing the system for the debit cards in 2012."

Selected Fiscal Year 2012 Financial Results

Revenues

We derive our revenues from our e-commerce business and meat distribution business. We have realized zero revenue from our debit card business. Our net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $ 6,823,880 from $ 7,783,719 for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $ 959,839 or 12.3%.

E-commerce Business

Our net revenues from e-commerce business for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $ 1,153,389 from $ 2,155,027 for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $ 1,001,638 or 46.5%. The decrease was primarily due to a significant decrease in sales resulting from the restructuring of our sales team and less successful marketing activities.

Meat Distribution Business

Our net revenues from meat distribution business for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased to $ 5,670,491 in the year ended December 31, 2012 from $ 5,628,692 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $ 41,799 or 0.7%.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes costs of our products, shipping charges from the suppliers and to our customers, and costs of packaging material associated with our meat distribution business. Cost and expenses associated with our e-commerce business, such as processing costs and transaction costs, are recognized as our selling expenses in our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Our cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased to $ 5,595,790 from $ 5,564,088 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $ 31,702 or 0.6%. The increase was in line with the increase in revenues from the meat distribution business.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $ 1,228,090 from $ 2,219,631 for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $ 991,541 or 44.7%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales from e-commerce business. Our gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to 18.0% from 28.5% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease of our gross profit margin was primarily due to revenues from the meat distribution business accounting for a much higher percentage of our revenues, which has a lower profit margin than the e-commerce business.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of selling expenses, and general and administrative expenses. Our total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $ 2,561,388 from $ 4,433,532 for the year ended December 31, 20111, a decrease of $ 1,872,144 or 42.2%.

Selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased to $ 985,515 from $ 1,894,933 for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $ 909,418 or 48.0%.

Turn a Drab Floor into a Spectacular Piece of Art Work with Floor Marking Tape ? Now Offered through Creative Safety Supply

Turn a Drab Floor into a Spectacular Piece of Art Work with Floor Marking Tape – Now Offered through Creative Safety Supply

Floor Marking Tape

Lake Oswego, OR (PRWEB) March 13, 2013

Floor marking tape is typically used for industrial plants and warehouses where aisles and pathways must be created for the safety of its employees and visitors. Forklifts and smaller vehicles are constantly scooting across the facility floor and the tape markings are a way to keep pedestrians within a safe walkway so accidents don't happen. But now floor marking tape is being taken to a new level of how to use the tape. Artistic designers are creating visual art on floors that will take a drab boring room to spectacular heights of artistic vision. The floor marking tape is available in ten vibrant colors and is now offered through Creative Safety Supply at affordable costs that can create a fabulous designed floor.

Designers are attracted to using floor marking tape for their designs over paint not only because it is cost effective but because of the easy and quick installation that can be applied to all surfaces, even on irregular surfaces. The tape is constructed with color throughout and not just the top layer which makes it ideal to make original designs more detail orientated. The tape is made out of an industrial grade material of 6 mil thick vinyl film that will resist scrapes, weathering and wear. Designs will last a long time under even the harshest foot traffic across the floor. The aggressive adhesive will resist all types of traffic from pedestrians, wheelchairs and other carts or dollies. Floor can be cleaned as normal without any harm to the tape.

A designer for innovative office spaces commented, "We found the floor marking tape to be an incredible product for making creative designs for our artistic customers. We love it!"

For more information about floor marking tape, please visit http://www.creativesafetysupply.com/floor-marking-tape/ or call toll-free (866)777-1360 to speak with a professional representative.

Hanson Logistics implements CALIDUS WMS for hazchem warehousing and distribution

Hanson Logistics implements CALIDUS WMS for hazchem warehousing and distribution

Hanson Logistics benefits from CALIDUS WMS

Liverpool (PRWEB UK) 12 March 2013

Third-party logistics specialist Hanson Logistics has implemented standard off-the-shelf wireless warehouse management software from OBS Logistics. The sophisticated CALIDUS WMS simplifies the warehousing of hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals, including flammable products along with other goods.

The system makes it easy for Hanson Logistics to manage a wide range of goods, including lubricants, paints and surface treatments, optimising warehouse space and ensuring that they are stored safely according to strict Health & Safety standards in its top tier COMAH warehouse and flammable storage areas.

Using the system, Hanson Logistics has eliminated the hard work of ensuring that none-compatible materials are segregated in the 55,000-sqft warehouse as well as in the flammable storage and sampling areas. The system also ensures batch traceability so that when a customer has tested a sample and agreed to order the product, the required quantity is taken from the correct batch.

"With CALIDUS WMS, we are able to make the most efficient use of our warehouse space while working with the constraints of managing hazardous and non-hazardous products. Our chemical warehouse operation requires the complex algorithms that the system provides to ensure the stock is held in the right areas, keeping it safe as well as ensuring batch traceability. The system also ensures we run the fleet of forklifts effectively by having the option of 'dual cycling' so that we can maintain a very efficient operation in terms of storage and service," says Paul Pheasey, Managing Director, Hanson Logistics.

CALIDUS WMS uses a number of unique separate algorithms to manage warehouse space so that chemical warehousing companies can run at a very high fill rate without compromising safety, flexibility, accuracy or service.

Dave Renshaw, CEO of OBS Logistics says, "With CALIDUS WMS, we find we can run at well over 90 per cent, even with hazardous and non-hazardous products within the same facility. The system has full Hazchem functionality and will ensure that products are stored in the correct hazard area while optimising the available space. It also allows new customers to be catered for so that the company can develop its business without fear of compromising its service levels."
