Codex Opens a New Elastomer 
Warehouse in Slovenia
This summer Codex opened a new dedicated elastomer warehouse near its headquarters 
in Slovenia, strengthening its storage capabilities and supporting its continued expansion.
Compared to metallic components, 
elastomers are more sensitive to their 
storage environment. Temperature, 
humidity, sunlight, ozone, dust and other 
external influences can affect material 
properties and shelf life over time. Proper 
storage is therefore an important part of 
maintaining product quality throughout 
the supply chain.
The new Codex warehouse has 
been designed specifically around 
these requirements, providing stable 
temperature and regulated humidity, while 
protecting products from sunlight, ozone, 
dust and other environmental influences.
Controlled conditions and full traceability
The investment goes beyond additional 
storage space. Digital monitoring, batch 
traceability and systematic stock rotation 
are integrated into Codex’s elastomer 
warehousing processes.
Relevant product information, including 
batch numbers, production dates and 
expiry dates, can be tracked throughout 
the storage process. This supports 
effective stock management and helps 
ensure that products are stored and 
handled according to their specified 
shelf life.
For customers operating in demanding 
industrial applications, this provides 
additional confidence that the products 
they receive have been properly 
stored and handled before reaching 
their facilities.
Additional measuring and quality 
control capabilities
Codex has also expanded its in-house 
quality control capabilities with advanced 
measuring equipment, including the 
Micro-Vu Excel Measuring Center. Using 
high-resolution imaging and automated 
measurement technology, the system 
enables precise dimensional inspection of 
even complex geometries, strengthening 
product quality control at the company’s 
headquarters in Slovenia.
Connecting the warehouse with 
customers through EDI
Alongside its investment in physical 
infrastructure, Codex is also continuing 
to digitalise the exchange of information 
with customers through Electronic Data 
Interchange (EDI). EDI enables business 
documents and order information to be 
exchanged directly between Codex and 
customer systems. Instead of manually 
transferring information from emails, 
PDFs or other documents, data can 
move automatically from one system 
to another.
This is particularly useful for OEM 
customers and companies managing 
large numbers of products, repeat orders 
and scheduled deliveries. Automated 
data exchange can reduce manual 
administration, minimise data-entry errors 
and speed up order processing.
The new warehouse has been designed around 
specific requirements for elastomers
