Hutchinson has inaugurate its automated distribution centre in Mannheim, Germany. Located on one of the Group’s historic sites, this 3,600 m² centre is dedicated to the distribution of sealing solutions from the O-Rings & Bonded Seals division.
The ambition is to offer our customers faster, more reliable, and more personalized logistics, while embracing a responsible industrial approach.
“This new distribution centre in Mannheim is a key milestone in the O-Rings & Bonded Seals strategy. It reflects our commitment to providing customers in Germany, Northern and Eastern Europe with logistics services that meet their expectations, while integrating sustainable and innovative technical solutions. This achievement also demonstrates our ability to implement standardized solutions, as it is a ‘copy-paste’ of the distribution centre launched in March 2023 in Château-Gontier.” explains Michel-André Courcol, Director of the division leading the project.
The centre features an automated small-parts warehouse with a capacity of 17,000 bins, high-speed mini-loads (up to 6 m/s), automated order-picking stations, and 8 loading docks.
