Nominated for IFOY Award 2013 in the Forklift Truck Solutions Category: STILL

In order to handle the annually growing turnover of goods while saving storage space and cutting costs, the Heideblume dairy in Elsdorf decided to centralise its external delivery warehouses in 2012 to create an automated logistics centre. The solution chosen by the company, which loads around 190,000 tons of dairy and delicatessen products in Elsdorf every year for dispatch to virtually all the leading German discount and retail chains, was developed by Still GmbH. The provider of forklift trucks and intralogistics systems not only uses conventional driverless transport systems but also automates its own standard trucks. As the latter can be operated both automatically and manually, this ensures maximum flexibility from the point of view of the customer.
