The fire is left without air
The fire protection specialists of the Wagner Group have been honored with the "GIT Safety Award 2026" for their "OxyReduct F-Line." The system expands the OxyReduct process with H2- based fuel cell technology, which simultaneously ensures emission-free energy supply.
Temperature-controlled at the motorway junction
Movianto, a logistics service provider specializing in pharmaceuticals and healthcare, is setting up a new cold storage facility in Wiesloch-Walldorf this month. A photovoltaic system there produces approximately 3,100 MWh per year, more electricity than the site consumes.
Fusion reactor in creep mode
Despite all the political turmoil currently shaking the world, work on the ITER fusion reactor, in which countless nations are involved, continues – much like on the ISS. Recently, another of the 15-meter-high segments for the future plasma chamber was delivered by heavy-duty transport.
Nonstop strapping
Mosca offers a comprehensive portfolio of integrated end-of-line systems for transport packaging, strapping machines, stretch wrappers, and associated consumables. Strapping made from materials such as PP and PET is produced with increasing recycled content.
Dynamic open-plan area
Relocations often involve considerable effort. Furniture needs to be transported, boxes packed, and unwanted items disposed of. The company " Optimal Umzug " from Lachen, Canton of Schwyz, offers services tailored to the greater Zurich area.
Optio L-Series updated
Developed with the user in mind, the completely redesigned generation of low-level order pickers in the Optio L series from TMHE sets new standards. Increased platform lifting heights, low entry, and versatile model variants for loads up to 2.5 t make these devices highly sought-after helpers.
Cold chain in transition: Ambitious goals
Temperature-controlled logistics is facing an energy revolution: battery-electric trucks, long-range hydrogen vehicles, and cryogenic cooling with nitrogen are transforming the industry. Enough "material" for the SVTL to discuss future processes and alternatives at Galliker in Altishofen.
DLR expands drone defense
While Russian drones have long been surveying German bases and critical infrastructures as potential targets for their “ asymmetric warfare ” a project called CUSTODIAN (Counter-UAS Technologies for Detection, Interception and Neutralization) is now slowly gaining momentum at the DLR.
ASTAG and GS1 to go green together
The Swiss Commercial Vehicle Association and GS1 Switzerland are merging their "Lean & Green" and "We go green!" initiatives. Both ASTAG and GS1 are embracing sustainability as a triad of economy, society, and the environment.
Interoperability proven
At an " Automation Day " hosted by Agilox, insights into the current status and future direction of the robotics provider were provided, rounded off by workflows that – modeled on real practical processes – demonstrated interoperability with the AMRs together with a Fanuc robot arm and a Palomat.
Pilots in the identity jungle

Zetes, a provider of labeling and tracking systems, monitors printers, drives, and cameras along packaging lines, manages warehouse processes, checks pallets at incoming and outgoing goods points using RFID/ImageID, and also handles inventory. Anti-counterfeit protection included.
At LogiMAT, the software and hardware provider will present live demonstrations of the ZetesAtlas Packaging Execution System (PES) for serialization and seamless product traceability, for example, for compliance with various directives such as the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) or the Pharmaceutical Products Directive (FMD), combined with the MD 6000 high-performance applicator for labeling pallets in luggage. In addition, an electronic proof-of-delivery solution will be offered for the complete documentation of loading and delivery processes, extending from the first to the last mile.
"Labor shortages, sustainability requirements, and cost pressures will remain on companies' agendas in 2024. Companies must invest in a technology-based environment," says Marketing Manager Cordula Steinhart. Collaborative automation plays a key role in this.
The end-to-end solutions offered for transport & logistics, retail, food & beverages, and the pharmaceutical industry include the ZetesMedea system, which guides employees safely through processes using technologies such as pick-by-voice, pick-by-vision, scanning, ImageID, and RFID. This results in fewer errors in warehouse processes, from goods receipt to goods issue. In addition, workloads can be managed more effectively, which is particularly important during peak periods.

The RFID/ImageID solution is available as an optional module and can be used, among other things, for incoming goods and shipping inspections or inventory down to the item level. Image-based recordings of every pallet, roll container, and crate can be automatically taken during the respective process. This visual verification proves whether shipments were loaded or received in the correct condition and, through automatic data capture, reduces complaints.
ZetesChronos, the electronic proof-of-delivery software, was developed to manage all delivery and pickup processes and offers transparency through real-time track & trace of goods movements and driver assignments.
