About AutoStore:
AutoStore™, founded in 1996, is a robotic warehouse technology company that invented and continues to pioneer the automation of cube warehouses, the densest solution for order fulfilment. AutoStores goal is to combine software and hardware with human capabilities to shape the future of warehousing. AutoStore operates globally and has more than 850 systems in 45 countries across a wide range of industries. All sales are distributed, developed, installed and maintained by a network of qualified systems integrators we call "partners". In the 1990s, Hatteland Group built a new large warehouse to store the electronic components it sold in Northern Europe. When the shelves filled up in the first month, Hatteland's technical director Ingvar Hognaland had an epiphany: why should we store things like dominoes when we could store them like a Rubik's cube? Let's stop "airhousing" and start warehousing. That was the birth of cube warehouse automation and AutoStore.
