Alnatura, Germany: High-bay pallet warehouse and small-volume shuttle
Alnatura's distribution center in Lorsch, which features particularly sustainable construction and operation, stands 17.5 meters high and is built entirely of wood. This new logistics center will reduce CO2 emissions – thanks to improved insulation and natural cooling, there is no need for artificial air conditioning.
Swisslog's CycloneCarrier shuttle system has enabled Alnatura to centralize their warehouse logistics of small-volume organic items for the company’s expanding network of stores. This environmentally-friendly solution shortens transport routes and allows Alnatura to manage a larger range of articles.
Weiling, Germany and Bio Partner, Switzerland
Weiling GmbH, headquartered in Coesfeld, is one of Germany's largest retail companies for organic food. Weiling has laid the foundation for additional growth with an automatic high-bay warehouse and an AutoStore for dry products.
Switzerland's leading organic retailer Bio Partner relies on a state-of-the-art AutoStore warehouse for more than 6,000 types of dry goods. This highly optimized solution transformed three formerly distinct warehouses into a single system.
As technology continues to advance, forward-thinking companies are already leveraging the latest automated technologies. Semi-automated warehouses have proven to be a valuable asset for businesses looking to scale operations at a steady, manageable pace.
