"Friendly Innovation"
Spanish AGV/AMR manufacturer founded 2009, specializing in automated guided vehicles for intralogistics; parent entered bankruptcy restructuring in 2024.
Kivnon is a company specializing in the research, development, design, and manufacturing of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) for intralogistics automation. The parent entity, headquartered in Barberà del Vallès, Barcelona, Spain (Av. Puig dels Tudons, 6, 08210), was founded in 2009 (some sources cite 2007 as operational start).
Kivnon Deutschland GmbH serves as the German subsidiary. Since founding, Kivnon installed over 6,000 robots worldwide across a range of industrial sectors. The company's product portfolio spans more than 10 AGV/AMR models designed for material handling in manufacturing and intralogistics environments.
Models include the K41 Slim AGV/AMR, which navigates autonomously using laser-based natural feature navigation without floor markings. Kivnon has subsidiaries in Brazil, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Mexico, Slovakia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, reflecting an international sales and service footprint. The AGV portfolio serves automotive, consumer goods, pharmaceutical, and e-commerce sectors.
In 2024, the parent company Kivnon Global and its subsidiary Kivnon Logística entered bankruptcy proceedings in Spain due to financial pressures including challenges in the automotive sector. Court administrator Ignacio Eguilior Vicente was appointed. The company confirmed continued support for its installed base during restructuring.
By late 2024, a new operating entity, Singular Kivnon S.L., commenced operations on October 25th to continue the business. Kivnon's technology enables flexible, scalable intralogistics automation without fixed floor infrastructure, targeting manufacturing plants and distribution centers.
