Kivnon, a provider of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and intralogistics solutions, has agreed a strategic partnership with ProLog Automation to accelerate the deployment of AGV solutions in the German market.
This collaboration establishes ProLog Automation as Kivnon’s key partner for AGV projects and services in Germany.
By leveraging Kivnon’s AGV technology and ProLog’s local expertise, the partnership aims to help companies unlock next generation efficiency and competitiveness.
Nicholas Loh, regional manager, central and northern Europe at Kivnon, says: “This partnership offers ProLog’s deep industry acumen with our advanced AGV technology.
“Together, we are committed to delivering faster response times, localized service, and an improved customer experience for our clients in Germany.”
ProLog’s team will work closely with Kivnon to ensure effective project execution and comprehensive after-sales support, including maintenance, spare parts, and technical assistance.
Addressing Germany’s labor shortage and automation demands
Germany’s manufacturing and logistics sectors are increasingly facing labor shortages, driving greater demand for automation.
The partnership between Kivnon and ProLog Automation responds to this need by offering scalable AGV solutions that help companies manage productivity challenges.
Marco Bernstein, partner manager ProLog Automation, says: “Automation is essential for businesses looking to address labor shortages and optimize their operations.
“Our partnership with Kivnon allows us to deliver our services directly to their end customers to keep those AGV systems still in their guaranteed availability.”
