Logistics is a growth market. Speed and flexibility are the big challenges of the next few years. In line with the EU's Green Deal, this also includes autonomous power supply. The e-commerce market will also continue to be global and oriented accordingly. The variety of goods has never been so great and the market requirements for product availability have never been more demanding. No, it's no longer possible without logistics. The logistics industry is still behind retail and the automotive industry. And in the future it will have to cope with the growing trading volume. Not only are the logistics processes becoming more complex, even the shipments are becoming smaller and smaller. This has the negative potential of increased returns of goods.
- We offer organizational and planning ideas through to turnkey solutions.
- If required, we also provide market figures and forecasts for over 150 countries.
People must continue to be the focus
Automating such processes is only part of the solution. Structures and management must also be put to the test. But above all, it is important that people do not lose control and overview.

In times of an increasingly tough national and international competitive environment for companies, the pressure to increase productivity is also constantly increasing in logistics. This does not stop at intralogistics, in which the focus of efforts is particularly on the area of order picking: more and more goods, components or raw materials have to be stored and moved - and ideally this always faster, more cost-effectively and in a more resource-efficient manner. It's no wonder that, given this impression, automation is finding its way into more and more companies. Dynamic storage solutions such as shuttle systems or horizontal carousel warehouses are one way to increase productivity in the warehouse.

World logistics – resilient logistics

The corona pandemic has shown us, impressively and frighteningly at the same time, how fragile and brittle our networked and globalized world has become. Supply chains that had worked for decades collapsed. Flights were canceled for the foreseeable future, trucks were no longer allowed to cross borders and countless container ships were stuck in front of the ports.

Robotics & automation in the warehouse

The megatrends of digitalization, automation and autonomization will also shape logistics processes in the future. Increasingly precise sensors and more powerful software will enable systems that do the work of human specialists in more and more areas. The step towards a camp without people?
Not entirely unlikely, as development is already well advanced. For many people, robots have become an integral part of everyday life. The use of industrial robots has long been standard in the manufacturing industry. Logistics still had some catching up to do here. This is mainly because robots are more or less blind and deaf. It is not that they lack strength, but that they lack human senses. And in order to function smoothly in the warehouse, future generations of robots will have to master these senses.

Material handling (material handling, material transport) plays an important role in manufacturing and logistics. Almost every item of physical commerce is transported on a conveyor belt, forklift, or other type of material handling device in manufacturing plants, warehouses, and retail stores. While material handling is typically required in intralogistics as part of every production worker's job, over 650,000 people in the United States work as dedicated "material handling machine operators" and have a median annual wage of $31,530 (May 2012). These operators use material handling equipment to transport various goods in a variety of industrial settings, including moving construction materials to construction sites or moving goods onto ships.
