Movu Robotics
Movu Robotics designs and manufactures warehouse automation solutions, including autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), pallet shuttle systems, and picking robots, all orchestrated by a proprietary Warehouse Execution System (WES) to make automation accessible for warehouses of any size.
Perfect For
Movu Robotics is best suited for medium-to-large warehouse operators, logistics service providers, and manufacturers looking to automate storage, retrieval, and internal transport processes, particularly those facing these challenges:
- Cold storage and deep-freeze operations (down to -25°C) that need automation designed for extreme temperatures
- 3PLs seeking scalable, flexible robotic solutions that can adapt to changing client requirements and seasonal demand peaks
- Warehouses with limited space that need high-density pallet storage through deep-lane shuttle systems
- Operations looking to reduce forklift traffic and improve worker safety while boosting picking efficiency
- Brownfield warehouse projects where existing infrastructure cannot be easily modified, since ifollow AMRs require no floor rails or physical infrastructure changes
Key Strengths
Comprehensive cold storage automation capability with robots and shuttles rated to -25°C, a rare and highly specialized offering
Modular, scalable system: start with a single AMR and expand fleets up to 200 robots without infrastructure changes
Proprietary three-layer WES software (ops, tower, pilot) provides a single integration interface to any existing WMS
Proven ROI metrics: 50% fewer picking errors, 30-50% picking efficiency gains, and 2-3 year payback period
Global support infrastructure with 10 production facilities, 20 sales offices, and 250+ distributor partners across Europe and North America
Considerations
Primarily focused on pallet-level and heavy-load automation; may not suit operations centered on small-parcel or each-pick fulfillment
Solutions require capital investment with no self-service or subscription pricing model mentioned, likely involving significant upfront costs
3-month system implementation time may be lengthy for operations needing immediate automation
Strongest presence in Europe with US expansion still developing; US customers may have fewer local reference sites and integrator options
Movu Robotics
Movu Robotics is a Belgium-headquartered robotics and automation company on a mission to make warehouse automation easier and accessible to every business. With the tagline "No warehouse left behind," Movu offers a comprehensive portfolio of intralogistics solutions spanning autonomous mobile robots (the ifollow line), deep-lane pallet shuttle systems (Movu atlas), automated picking robots (Movu eligo), and a sub-aisle shuttle system (Movu escala). All of these hardware platforms are unified under the Movu Warehouse Execution System (WES), a proprietary three-layer software stack consisting of Movu ops, Movu tower, and Movu pilot that handles everything from order acceptance and fleet management to individual robot routing.
The company differentiates itself through solutions purpose-built for challenging environments, particularly cold storage operations down to -25°C, where its AMRs and shuttles feature ice-protected batteries, frost-resistant LiDAR sensors, and compact turning radii that maximize usable storage space. Movu ifollow AMRs carry payloads of up to 1,200 kg, achieve 24-hour setup times, and deliver measurable results: 50% reduction in picking errors, 30-50% increase in picking efficiency, and a typical ROI within 2-3 years. The system supports fleets of up to 200 robots and plugs into all known Warehouse Management Systems through a single software interface.
Movu Robotics operates globally with ten production facilities, 20 sales offices, and a network of over 250 distributors. The company maintains legal entities and sales offices in Belgium, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, and the United States (Romeoville, Illinois). With over 200 customers across Europe and North America and strategic partnerships with integrators like Jungheinrich, Korber, KPI Solutions, MHS Lift, and Ceratec, Movu serves industries ranging from food and cold chain logistics to consumer goods and third-party logistics providers.
