Case Study: Blum Australia expands warehouse capacity and efficiency with Swisslog automation

Blum, Australia expands pallet storage from 9,000 to 15,000 with Swisslog

Blum Australia, a specialist in furniture fittings, faced the challenge of consolidating its distribution into a single warehouse while needing a high-density, future-proof automation solution to handle growth. Swisslog Holding provided a solution incorporating its Vectura pallet crane technology, ProMove conveyors, and SynQ warehouse management software.

Swisslog's solution, which was later expanded by adding two more Vectura cranes, increased storage capacity from 9,000 to 15,000 pallet locations. The implementation was completed ahead of schedule, resulting in greater operational efficiency, improved inventory control, and significant energy savings due to the cranes' 20% lower energy consumption. This modernized system provided Blum with a reliable, scalable, and sustainable automated warehouse.
