Global Robotics Services (GRS), the robotics arm division of GLP, has agreed a new strategic partnership with UK-based material handling specialist Brysdales Intralogistics, part of the Verat Group.
GRS will work with Brysdales to offer a full-service solution to warehouse operators and businesses seeking to improve the productivity of their operations through robotics and other efficient storage solutions. GRS offers a collaborative Robotics as a service (RaaS) solution which gives customers access to the benefits of robotics through a subscription model, offering the flexibility of a pay-as-you-go solution.
To date, GRS has completed more than 30 robotics projects across Asia and Europe, with installations completed in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Italy.
Jaap Vos, managing director, Brysdales Intralogistics, said, “Our partnership with GRS now gives us a unique fully automated solution in the intralogistics space. This new technology partnership will allow us to offer even greater efficiencies to new and existing customers and we look forward to working together to deliver these solutions across the UK’s warehouse and logistics marketplace.”
Hongming Chen, CEO of GRS, added, “Following our successful roll out across Asia we are now seeing significant interest in our subscription model Robotics as a service across Europe including the UK. Our new partnership with Brysdales, a market leader in the UK in the intralogistics space, will allow us to leverage their UK client network and local execution capabilities to reach an even greater number of potential customers across the country. We look forward to working with our new partners.”
