MOVU ROBOTICS SETS THE STANDARD FOR 4-WAY PALLET SHUTTLE AUTOMATION AT LOGIMAT 2026

At LogiMAT 2026, taking place at Messe Stuttgart from 24–26 March 2026, Movu Robotics, a member of the stow Group, will demonstrate how it is driving the large-scale transformation of automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS) toward 4-way pallet shuttle technology. From FMCG and Food & Beverage to cold storage operations and leading 3PLs, Movu continues to redefine high-density pallet automation across Europe and North America. Visitors can meet the team at Hall 3, Booth 3B77.

 

At the heart of Movu’s LogiMAT 2026 presence is Movu atlas, its flagship 4-way pallet shuttle solution. Designed for maximum storage density, high throughput, and long-term scalability, Movu atlas is increasingly becoming the reference architecture for modern pallet ASRS. With close to 200 Movu atlas deployed or underway, Movu is the first automation provider to successfully break through at scale, proving the maturity, robustness, and industrial readiness of this technology.

 

Driving the ASRS transformation at scale

 

The logistics industry is undergoing a structural shift away from traditional crane-based pallet ASRS toward more flexible, modular, and resilient solutions. Movu Robotics is at the forefront of this evolution, enabling customers to future-proof their warehouses through 4-way pallet shuttle systems that scale horizontally and vertically, adapt to fluctuating demand, and optimize total cost of ownership.

 

Movu atlas supports deep-lane, high-density pallet storage with shuttles capable of handling standard pallet formats at high speed and precision. The system is engineered for demanding industrial environments, operating reliably in ambient and cold storage conditions down to –25°C, and supporting high-throughput operations with multiple shuttles per level and high-speed vertical lifts. Its modular architecture allows customers to expand capacity and throughput incrementally by adding shuttles, lanes or lifts, without disrupting ongoing operations.

 

Proven across FMCG, Food & Beverage, Cold Storage and 3PL

 

Movu atlas is already delivering measurable value across a wide range of industries. Reference installations include Clarebout Potatoes (Simplot) and Westhof Bio in the (frozen) food sector and third-party logistics operations for GXO and UPS Healthcare. These projects highlight how Movu atlas adapts to different throughput profiles, storage strategies and operational constraints while maintaining consistent performance and system availability.

 

At LogiMAT 2026, visitors will be able to explore concrete reference cases, gain deeper insight into specific Movu atlas use cases, and discuss application scenarios directly with Movu experts, from system design to operational optimization.

 

One integrated solution: robotics, software, and racking

 

A key differentiator highlighted at the show is Movu’s fully integrated approach. Movu combines robotics, intelligent software, and structural racking into a single, high-performance sub-system, entirely sourced from the stow Group’s European and North American supply chain. This “one-stop shop” approach ensures optimal system performance, seamless integration, and reduced project risk for both end customers and system integrator partners.

 

All Movu atlas systems are controlled by Movu’s proprietary warehouse execution software, ensuring intelligent shuttle orchestration, real-time system visibility, and smooth integration with higher-level warehouse management systems. By engineering and delivering the full automation stack in-house, Movu guarantees reliability, scalability, and long-term serviceability.

“4-way pallet shuttle technology has moved beyond innovation into industrial reality,” says Christophe Coulongeat, CEO of Movu Robotics. “With nearly 200 systems in the market, Movu atlas is setting the standard for scalable, high-density pallet automation across Europe and North America.”

 

Stefan Pieters, CTO of Movu Robotics, adds: “Our focus has always been on delivering performance at scale. Movu atlas is engineered to combine speed, density, performance and reliability in a modular architecture that evolves with our customers’ needs, whether in FMCG, Food & Beverage, cold storage or 3PL operations.”

 

According to Noë van Bergen, CSO of Movu Robotics, “Customers want disruptive yet proven innovations, not just experiments. By mastering our full supply chain – robots, software, and racking- Movu Robotics ensures the success that our customers and integration partners experience with Movu atlas systems.”

Proven performance for customers and integrators

 

With nearly 200 4-way pallet shuttle systems in the market, Movu Robotics has moved beyond pilot projects into true industrial deployment. This extensive installed base provides customers and integrators with proven performance, repeatable system designs, and accelerated project execution, a critical advantage in today’s fast-moving logistics landscape.

 

At LogiMAT 2026, visitors will discover how Movu atlas enables warehouse operators to transition confidently toward next-generation pallet ASRS, combining density, speed, and scalability while maintaining operational resilience.
