The company has expanded its manufacturing capabilities by adding specialized automated roll-forming and high-throughput powder-coating infrastructure at its Bengaluru manufacturing facilities to meet heightened demand for high-bay warehousing infrastructure. Additionally, the company has expanded its high-tech product portfolio by launching smart high-density automated shuttle systems, IoT-integrated warehouse control software, and autonomous mobile robot integration solutions tailored for rapid-fulfillment distribution hubs and temperature-controlled cold-chain facilities. Over the past two years, Storage Technologies & Automation has also strengthened its market presence by securing multi-tier automated racking projects across India and broadening its export footprint through strategic partnerships with regional logistics integrators in the Middle East and African markets.
