Case Study: Alnatura achieves sustainable Industry 4.0 logistics with Swisslog

Alnatura builds a 17.5-meter sustainable warehouse with Swisslog

Alnatura, a German organic food retailer, needed a sustainable and efficient logistics solution to support its expanding store network. They partnered with Swisslog Holding to implement an Industry 4.0 automated warehouse, which included the innovative CycloneCarrier shuttle system and SynQ management software.

Swisslog implemented a high-performance automation solution featuring the CycloneCarrier shuttle system controlled by the intelligent SynQ software, which included real-time 3D visualization. The result is an extremely safe and high-performance logistics center that shortens transport routes and manages a larger SKU range. Crucially, the distribution center is built entirely of wood and, thanks to good insulation and natural cooling, requires no heating or artificial refrigeration, significantly cutting CO2 emissions.
