FileQuest Advanced Colour-coded System

Filing Essentials created and produces the entire range of FilQuest products. We sell the products directly and also through re-sellers.

Save space … store and retrieve records faster and more efficiently

The system works! At-a-glance colour-coding.  Alphabetical and/or numeric indexing for easy retrieval

The FileQuest system is an easy, logical way to build an effective storage and retrieval system that lets you identify files at-a-glance.
Because the eye responds to colour faster and more readily than any other visual stimuli, colour coding is the key element…from there on we can customise your management system to suit your needs, with practical, easy-to-use alphabetical and numerical labels that let you organise accurately and retrieve instantly.

The colour-coded system is easy to setup, even more simple to operate:

Colour bands guide you to the right section – clear alphabetical characters take you straight to the file you want.

  • Colour coding makes it fast and accurate
  • The minute you put a file in the wrong spot, your eye lets you know… no more searching for a file that should be in one place, but is hiding somewhere else!
  • Because each file is unique and works within the colour band, you’ll know the minute one is out of place!
  • Make best use of your floor space.  You’ll save up to 75% floor space … and every file is visible (based on a FileQuest 7-level Flipper door cabinet)

You’ll be amazed! FileQuest storage units occupy a fraction of the space of old-fashioned filing cabinets – you’ll save floor space of up to 75% – and space costs money!  FileQuest upright cabinets will revolutionise your office and release space you never realised you had!

Your FileQuest consultant will help you design and plan a layout to maximise your floorspace… and position your new cabinets to provide easy access.
