reasons why

1. Monetize / Add value to unused space

The SILO² vertical lift module can be made up of anything between 2 and 7 storage columns to provide a solution that is tailored to your space and your goods. Unique in its kind, it allows you to create storage systems up to 15 metres high and 7 metres wide, offering over a billion possible configurations as standard. Whether you have a distribution centre or a traditional store, you can enhance any space that is unused or not used very often, especially vertical space, in order to offer a more rewarding experience.

reasons why

Increase your order fulfilment

The SILO² vertical lift modules can hold a vast quantity of items: this allows you to reduce the distances warehouse operators have to travel to a minimum and helps speed up the preparation of your orders. In addition, the presence of two or more access openings further speeds up picking and restocking operations.

reasons why

Synchronized stock inventory: online and offline working seamlessly as a single warehouse

Easy interface of ICON, the SILO² management software, with the most popular management ERP, eCommerce and logistics platforms provides real-time synchronization of information, so that the stock of the physical warehouse is always aligned with that of the online store.

reasons why

Reduce lost sales and increase cross-selling opportunities

When installed inside physical stores, the SILO² vertical lift module means that store managers never have to leave their customers to go and search in the warehouse for items to try or buy. Remaining close to customers means that fewer sales are lost and more opportunities are created to sell other products from the range.

reasons why

Improve customer loyalty by expanding the range available

The high density of storage offered by the SILO², vertical lift module allows you to increase the number and type of items you store. This in turn means you can quickly satisfy the needs of consumers, who otherwise would turn to your competitors in order to be able to buy what they need immediately.
