DSV’s new Oslo facility features robotic storage
DSV Road and Solutions have moved gradually from three other sites around Oslo (Norway) to the new Vestby facility which is now operational. The new location just south of Oslo comprises a terminal of 12,000 sqm, a 32,000 sqm warehouse including a 7,000 sqm mezzanine, and 4,700 sqm office and personnel facilities.
Vestby is one of the first DSV warehouses to be equipped with a robotic storage and retrieval system in addition to traditional racking and thus it is particularly suited to cater to e-commerce operations.
“With the automated storage system, we obtain increased storage density and flexibility. Combined with the more effective picking methods compared to traditional methods, we can provide our customers with more cost-efficient services,” says Brian Winther Almind, executive vice president, group property, DSV.
