Automated storage systems for the construction industry

Construction materials, equipment, PPE and technical components always available: from manufacturing to the construction site, without interruptions

We support the entire construction supply chain

From component and semi-finished product manufacturing to material distribution and job site management, every player has specific operational requirements. ICAM intelligent solutions are designed to adapt to each one.

Manufacturers and prefabricators
Structural materials, certified lots and mandatory traceability

Manufacturers of prefabricated elements, steel structures and structural components manage heavy, bulky materials such as metal profiles, tubes, bars and rebar. At the same time, they need to maintain lot traceability — the documented path of each material lot from production to use — and technical documentation in line with construction industry regulations.

With ICAM automated storage systems, you can organise the storage of long materials while maintaining full inventory visibility and traceability for every lot.

Building materials distributors and dealers
Thousands of SKUs and jobsites to supply quickly

Building materials distributors manage very broad product ranges: tubes, bars, metal profiles, fastening systems, technical small parts, work tools, finishes, adhesives and building services components. To serve contractors and installers, they need to ensure immediate availability and accurate picking, even across similar SKUs.

With ICAM automated storage systems you organize SKUs in a compact way, speed up order preparation and reduce shipment errors to jobsites.

Construction firms and specialty installers
Materials and equipment distributed across multiple jobsites

Construction firms often work on multiple jobsites simultaneously, with materials and equipment distributed across warehouses, yards and operational sites. Knowing where equipment, spare parts and materials are located is essential to avoid delays, duplicate purchases or operational stoppages.

With ICAM automated storage systems, you centralise equipment management, track movements between the warehouse and work orders, and distribute materials to job sites in a controlled, secure way.
