Customer background

Three industrial-style clubs built around one recognizable strength identity

The customer is a gym chain serving strength and functional training members in North Rhine-Westphalia. The 2025 project covered three clubs of approximately 1,000 to 1,350 m² in converted industrial buildings.

Each building had a different internal column grid. The operator wanted broad selectorized, plate-loaded and free-weight training zones without narrowing circulation routes or losing the spacious character of the converted warehouse locations.

The chain also wanted members and staff to recognize the same equipment identity at every club. PowerBaseFit therefore connected a shared equipment list and finish standard with individual footprint checks for each site.

Supplier selection

Why PowerBaseFit matched the purchasing requirement

  • Selectorized, plate-loaded, rack, bench and dumbbell categories could be coordinated as one commercial strength project.
  • Equipment envelopes, bench movement, plate-loading access and maintenance clearance could be reviewed against each floor plan.
  • Finish samples, pad colors, labels and visible details could be approved as one multi-site collection.
  • Site codes and packing groups could keep the three club allocations clear through receiving and installation.
OEM / private label scope

How the product family was controlled

  • Deep-black frames with muted copper accents on selected adjustment points and brand plates
  • Dark-brown upholstery coordinated across the commercial strength range
  • German-language equipment labels with consistent exercise names
  • Club asset codes linking each product to its destination location
  • Cartons separated by club and training zone for multi-site receiving
Project challenge

Fit a broad commercial strength offer around different structural column grids while protecting circulation, equipment access and a consistent member experience across all three clubs.

PowerBaseFit solution

PowerBaseFit reviewed the three floors using equipment footprints, bench movement space, plate-loading access and maintenance clearance. Mirrored equipment positions used the column bays more efficiently, and compact selectorized stations replaced larger models at the tightest site. When the as-built survey showed that one column in the smallest club was 120 mm wider than the lease drawing, a selectorized station was mirrored and a nearby bench was rotated. The operator approved the revised layout before the site allocation was packed, so the equipment list did not need to be reduced.

Production, QC and packing

Multi-site finish control, functional QC and opening-sequence packing

The case combines product-family consistency with practical receiving and after-sales identification.

01

Paint and upholstery references checked under consistent lighting before bulk production

02

Selectorized and plate-loaded machines assembled for movement, adjustment and alignment checks

03

Stable bases, high-contact surfaces, upholstery and visible finish inspected across the range

04

German labels, club asset codes and branding details checked against approved references

05

Hardware and equipment quantities verified against each club allocation

06

The three site groups packed and loaded according to the planned opening sequence

Delivered project outcome

Three clubs opened with consistent equipment and site-specific layouts

The three clubs opened with a recognizable equipment identity and layouts that remained spacious despite the structural column constraints.

Staff could share equipment and maintenance information across locations, and the operator retained the core equipment list as a reference for its next site review.
