STILL UK Launches Automation Business Unit to Enhance Intralogistics Solutions

STILL UK has established its Automation Business Unit (ABU) to consolidate its expertise in intralogistics automation solutions.

By integrating various components of warehousing automation, STILL aims to offer tailored solutions that address specific customer objectives, moving beyond traditional product sales to solution-based selling.

Looking ahead, STILL UK plans to emphasize its collaborative approach with clients, ensuring that all aspects of automation, including infrastructure considerations, are addressed. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
