Скачать или смотреть How AutoStore Began: The Story of the First System That Changed Everything

Every global movement starts with a moment of trust.

In 2005, Norwegian tech company Elotec took a leap no one else had. With support from our first ever partner Element Logic, they became the first company in the world to install an AutoStore system, before there were case studies, benchmarks, or even proof it would work.

As Synnøve Matre, VP Cube Success at AutoStore, shares in this video, Elotec didn’t buy a solution, they helped shape one.

Their challenge was real: deliver mission-critical technology with zero margin for error. Accuracy wasn’t optional, mistakes weren’t an option, and downtime was unthinkable.

AutoStore delivered, and that same system is still running 20 years later.

This is the origin story of the Grid, the trust behind it, and the mission that still drives us today:


To build warehouse automation that performs under pressure, adapts without drama, and solves problems that matter.
