beermatt
Local time: 10:47
full goods warehouse (or) finished goods warehouse
Explanation:
"Finished goods warehouse" is found more often, but I think "full goods warehouse" seems a bit more descriptive when focusing on filled bottles at a bottling plant.


http://www.pearlbrewery.com/p_dev_fullgoods.htm
"This was literally the end of the line for thousands and thousands of amber bottles of Pearl beer. The filled bottles left the bottling plant, then rattled and clanked along an elevated conveyer line, ending up in the Full Goods [filled bottles = full goods] Warehouse. There they were boxed and stored, ready for distribution."


Also, see "full goods warehouse" in the diagram on page 281 here:

Thanks a lot - very useful array of references!
Maybe I could have found it myself playing about with keywords in google a little longer, but I didn't expect the English term to be as close to the German one...
(so thanks again for curing me of that illusion!)
