The company's own, fully integrated warehouse execution system Savanna.NET, which takes over the intelligent control of the warehouse and conveyor technology, is designed to minimise the use of resources.

As a specialist in automated normal temperature, refrigerated and deep-freeze warehouses of all sizes - from a 2,500-space ripening warehouse for Tönnies to Lineage Harnes 2 with 60,664 spaces - Westfalia knows the specific requirements of fresh and deep-freeze logistics inside out. In the deep-freeze sector, for example, it is the tough working conditions at temperatures as low as -35° C that make the search for qualified personnel a real challenge. Goods-to-man systems, fully automated layer picking and innovative maintenance lifts on the storage and retrieval machines are just a few examples of approaches that not only increase efficiency, but also relieve the strain on personnel in extreme working environments.
