Hänel Rotomat® Office Vertical Carousel
Optimal filing systems for office and administration

Rationalization – cost-cutting – efficiency: these are demands that modern-day office organization must meet!

In 1953 Gerhard Hänel founded the office equipment company ‘Häne Bürosysteme’. By 1957 Hänel was series-producing filing carousels based on the Ferris wheel principle – the first manufacturer in Europe to do so. Today Rotomat® carousels and Hänel Lean-Lifts® are produced in 3 manufacturing plants and exported worldwide.

Hänel has distribution partners in over 60 countries around the globe. Innovation and performance, dynamics and ideas, new technologies and team spirit have made Hänel one the leading providers of storage and organization systems. With the Hänel Rotomat® office carousel, we offer a flexible organization and filing system that adapts optimally to your needs.

The Hänel Rotomat® office carousel brings the required files to the retrieval area in just seconds.

The Hänel Rotomat® office carousel makes use of the available room height and creates up to 60 % more filing capacity thanks to its compact design. This means costly office space can be used more efficiently.

No more bending, ladder-climbing or walking long distances to search for and archive records. The required files are brought automatically to the optimum ergonomic retrieval height.

Our German production plants are certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001, and meet the latest environmental guidelines. Only environmentally friendly, recyclable materials are used.

With the intelligent energy management feature Hänel EcoMode®, the Hänel office carousels can be switched to different standby modes. This allows energy consumption to be reduced to a minimum.

If you want to improve your office organization and reduce costs, you should talk to the specialists at Hänel first. Together we can develop your own 'tailor-made organization concept'.
