AI is shaping the future of logistics but so are robots.
The real revolution comes when the two converge. The next five years will be both exciting and challenging for anyone passionate about supply chain transformation.
But just like humans, not all robots are equal.
The high-end robotics partner we work with designs and manufactures in Europe.
That means:
-
Reliability: Built for zero-failure performance (unlike many low-cost alternatives).
-
Care for infrastructure: Multidirectional wheels that don’t damage the warehouse floor.
-
Versatility: Retractable arms allowing handling of any type of pallet or rolls
Proven business cases, not just promises.
GL Facilitators has already supported live deployments with dozens of robots in operation, handling like:
-
Inbound: From docks to ASRS pallet storage systems.
-
Outbound: From picking and preparation areas to the exact pre-loading spot.
ROI speaks for itself. We don’t just talk about potential, we help clients see it on site. In the UK and the Netherlands, with retailers and a Top 5 global logistics provider, the numbers are clear: 18 months ROI by replacing one forklift + driver on a two-shift basis with one robot.
And the next step is even more exciting: carton-picking. Instead of walking for hours across long distances, pickers can stay in one aisle. The robot comes to them. No more pallet trucks, just efficiency, ergonomics, and productivity gains.
At GL Facilitators, we don’t just introduce new technology, we make sure it works in your warehouse, for your business case, and with a measurable return.
