Leading hygiene and health company, Essity has automated its strategic distribution facility in Hoogezand. Working with Swisslog as the main contractor for the entire project, Essity's new high-bay warehouse measures 30 meters high by 120 meters wide with approximately 27,000 pallet locations.

Swisslog Monorail is the Heart of the System 

The state-of-the-art solution that Swisslog implemented at Essity comprises approximately 1,000 meters of conveyor belts, nine automatic high-reaching cranes, a KUKA layer picking robot and a monorail system. The production departments are connected to the new warehouse by a 500 meter-long bridge that runs across a public highway.

The re-palletization method and the WMS played particularly important roles. We also had a strong preference for a Dutch-speaking partner.
