AEDLER Logistik Solutions partners with Kardex to deliver seamless intralogistics in the UAE
Intro: As the logistics and supply chain sector in the United Arab Emirates continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, the need for smarter, more integrated warehousing solutions has never been greater. In a strategic move to meet this demand, AEDLER Logistik Solutions has joined forces with Kardex, a global leader in automated storage and retrieval systems to enhance intralogistics efficiency across the UAE.
This collaboration is set to revolutionise intralogistics across the UAE by delivering cutting-edge, intelligent storage solutions tailored to the region’s growing logistics demands.
Smart storage for smart operations
At the core of this partnership is the introduction of cutting-edge Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) and Vertical Carousel Modules (VCMs) – high-density, automated storage and retrieval systems designed to help operations reclaim up to 85% of floor space while significantly improving picking speed, accuracy, and productivity. Using a “goods-to-person” approach, VLMs bring the right part directly to the operator—eliminating wasted travel time and manual searching.
Whether you’re managing a wide variety of part sizes or looking to streamline order picking, VLMs offer unmatched flexibility. They can be outfitted with trays that handle up to 1,000 kg each. For applications with heavier loads, lift assisting equipment can be added to a VLM as well. These systems can be seamlessly integrated with barcode scanners, conveyors, and robotics—creating a fully automated, high-efficiency workflow.
VLMs can be used for automated product handling by integrating robots. With this automated integration, a robotic arm picks items out of the tray and distributes them accordingly. This versatility ensures that our storage solution evolves with your operation – whether you are scaling up, relocating or optimising across departments. VLMs deliver measurable results—more floor space, faster picks, and fewer errors. Whether used for production parts, or fulfillment, they provide a scalable, high-performance solution for modern material handling.
Seamless integration, local support
One of the remarkable features of this partnership is AEDLER’s ability to offer turnkey integration — from solution design and engineering to implementation, training, and after-sales service, ensuring that Kardex’s advanced technology is deployed with precision and adapted to the unique needs of companies operating in the UAE. AEDLER’s customer-centric approach ensures that every Kardex system is implemented with maximum efficiency, minimum disruption, and long-term operational value.
As the UAE doubles down on logistics as a strategic sector for its economic diversification plans, investments in automation and smart warehousing are no longer optional — they are essential. The AEDLER–Kardex partnership brings automation within reach for businesses of all sizes and sectors, offering an efficient solution to smarter, more responsive supply chains.
For companies ready to elevate their operations, improve margins, and meet rising customer expectations, VLMs and VCMs are no longer technologies of the future — they are crucial for today’s Industry.
The AEDLER–Kardex alliance is poised to make a significant impact across several key sectors in the UAE, especially those where space optimisation, inventory accuracy, and operational efficiency are critical.
