Backed by expanded U.S. production capacity in North America
At MODEX 2026, taking place at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta from 13–15 April 2026, Movu Robotics, a member of stow Group, will demonstrate how it is driving the large-scale transformation of automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS) toward 4-way pallet shuttle technology across North America. From FMCG and Food & Beverage to cold storage operations and leading 3PLs, Movu continues to redefine high-density pallet automation at scale. Visitors can meet the Movu team Hall B, Booth B13128.
At the heart of Movu’s MODEX 2026 presence is Movu atlas, its flagship 4-way pallet shuttle solution. Designed for maximum storage density, high throughput, and long-term scalability, Movu atlas is increasingly becoming the reference architecture for modern pallet ASRS. With close to 200 Movu atlas systems deployed or underway globally, Movu Robotics is the first automation provider to successfully break through at scale, demonstrating the maturity, robustness, and industrial readiness of 4-way pallet shuttle technology.
Driving the ASRS transformation at scale in North America
The logistics industry is undergoing a structural shift away from traditional crane-based pallet ASRS toward more flexible, modular, and resilient solutions. Movu Robotics is at the forefront of this evolution, enabling customers to future-proof their warehouses through 4-way pallet shuttle systems that scale horizontally and vertically, adapt to fluctuating demand, and optimize total cost of ownership.
Movu atlas supports deep-lane, high-density pallet storage with shuttles capable of handling standard pallet formats at high speed and precision. The system is engineered for demanding industrial environments, operating reliably in ambient and cold storage conditions down to –25°C, and supporting high-throughput operations with multiple shuttles per level and high-speed vertical lifts. Its modular architecture allows customers to expand capacity and throughput incrementally by adding shuttles, lanes or lifts, without disrupting ongoing operations.
Strengthening U.S. market support with new stow production facility
Movu’s growth in the U.S. market is further reinforced by stow Group’s investment in a new production facility in Gordon County, Georgia, scheduled to begin operations mid-2026. The $36 million investment will create approximately 200 jobs and significantly expand stow’s manufacturing footprint in North America.
This new, highly automated production facility will strengthen the Group’s local supply chain, reduce lead times, and enhance delivery reliability for customers across the United States. For Movu Robotics, the expanded U.S. manufacturing presence will directly support the deployment and scaling of automation projects, ensuring closer proximity to customers, faster execution, and long-term serviceability for large-scale ASRS installations.
Proven across FMCG, Food & Beverage, Cold Storage and 3PL
Movu atlas is already delivering measurable value across a wide range of industries. Reference installations include Clarebout Potatoes (Simplot) and Westhof Bio in the (frozen) food sector and third-party logistics operations for GXO and UPS Healthcare. These projects highlight how Movu atlas adapts to different throughput profiles, storage strategies and operational constraints while maintaining consistent performance and system availability.
At MODEX 2026, visitors will be able to explore concrete reference cases, gain deeper insight into specific Movu atlas use cases, and discuss application scenarios directly with Movu experts, from system design to operational optimization.
One integrated solution: robotics, software, and racking
A key differentiator highlighted at the show is Movu’s fully integrated approach. Movu combines robotics, intelligent software, and structural racking into a single, high-performance sub-system, entirely sourced from the stow Group’s European and North American supply chain. This “one-stop shop” approach ensures optimal system performance, seamless integration, and reduced project risk for both end customers and system integrator partners.
All Movu atlas systems are controlled by Movu’s proprietary warehouse execution software, ensuring intelligent shuttle orchestration, real-time system visibility, and smooth integration with higher-level warehouse management systems. By engineering and delivering the full automation stack in-house, Movu guarantees reliability, scalability, and long-term serviceability.

“4-way pallet shuttle technology has moved beyond innovation into industrial reality,” says Christophe Coulongeat, CEO of Movu Robotics. “With nearly 200 systems in the market and a strengthened production footprint in the United States, Movu atlas is setting the standard for scalable, high-density pallet automation across North America.”

Stefan Pieters, CTO of Movu Robotics, adds: “Our focus has always been on delivering performance at scale. Movu atlas is engineered to combine speed, density, performance and reliability in a modular architecture that evolves with our customers’ needs, whether in FMCG, Food & Beverage, cold storage or 3PL operations.”

According to Noë van Bergen, CSO of Movu Robotics, “Customers in North America are looking for disruptive yet proven innovations, not just experiments. By mastering our full supply chain – robots, software, and racking – and with Movu atlas and stow’s new U.S. production facility, we ensure the success that our customers and integration partners experience with flexible shuttle-based systems, backed by real reference projects and strong local support.”
Proven performance for customers and integrators
With nearly 200 4-way pallet shuttle systems in the market, Movu Robotics has moved beyond pilot projects into true industrial deployment. This extensive installed base, combined with expanded U.S. manufacturing capacity, provides customers and integrators with proven performance, repeatable system designs, and accelerated project execution.
At MODEX 2026, visitors will discover how Movu atlas enables warehouse operators to transition confidently toward next-generation pallet ASRS, combining density, speed, and scalability while maintaining operational resilience.
