Switzerland logistics automation company Swisslog has on Monday announced the successful deployment and commissioning of Satair’s new AutoStore system at its Singapore facility, strengthening its position in Southeast Asia.
Swisslog said in a statement that this installation represents Satair’s third automation deployment globally, following successful implementations in Hamburg and Dulles.
It forms a key pillar of the company’s strategy to harmonize and robotize logistics processes across its global network—enhancing efficiency, resilience, and scalability.
The new AutoStore system strengthens Satair’s logistics capabilities across Asia-Pacific by enabling high‑density, goods‑to‑person automation.
By storing approximately 80 percent of small and medium-sized parts within the existing 1,000 m² footprint.
The system delivers faster and more consistent order processing while supporting scalable, 24/7 operations.
This translates into improved reliability, shorter handling times, and greater flexibility for customers—particularly during periods of peak demand.
“Our partnership with Satair continues to be a strong example of how advanced automation can transform aerospace logistics,
“By combining Swisslog’s integration expertise with AutoStore’s high‑density storage technology, we are enabling Satair to scale efficiently and stay ahead of growing regional demand” said Steven Xie, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Swisslog APeC.
Supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), the installation strengthens Singapore’s position as a leading aerospace logistics hub.
The project also contributes to the nation’s ongoing efforts to advance digitalisation and build future‑ready supply chain capabilities.
“The inauguration of AutoStore in Singapore is a pivotal step in our transformative regional growth via technology. By integrating this advanced automation, we are ensuring that our supply chain remains resilient and ready to support the rapid fleet growth we see across Asia-Pacific,
“This investment reflects our commitment to providing consistent, value‑added, world‑class service levels to our customers.” said Andy Lee, Managing Director for Satair Asia-Pacific.
Swisslog said it will continue to work alongside Satair as it expands its automation capabilities, ensuring the Singapore facility remains a benchmark for operational excellence in the region.
