Kardex becomes a partner of AutoStore

Zurich, 18.02.2021

Kardex Holding AG has signed a global partnership agreement with Autostore AS. AutoStore is a high-performance and space-saving storage and picking solution for the rapid processing of small parts orders with the help of autonomous robots. The technology, which has been used very successfully in the market for several years, complements Kardex's range of products and services, particularly in the area of comprehensive order fulfillment solutions.

As a global partner of AutoStore, Kardex will in future sell, project-manage, and install AutoStore solutions worldwide. Through Kardex's global network, AutoStore will also increasingly find access to smaller and medium-sized companies in a wide range of industry and customer segments. "With AutoStore, we ideally complement our product portfolio and can thus optimally solve the logistics requirements of our customers," says Jens Fankhänel, CEO of Kardex Holding.
