The systems integration firm will distribute Seegrid’s line of robotic industrial trucks, providing clients with a solution that offers a quick return on investment and immediate results.
May 7, 2013 – Bastian Solutions, a global material handling systems integrator, has partnered with Seegrid to distribute the company’s line of robotic industrial trucks.
“Seegrid’s robotic industrial trucks provide flexible and affordable solutions to complement new or existing facilities,” shared Aaron Jones, Vice President of Bastian Solutions. “For clients who desire a partial automation solution, Seegrid offers an excellent product without the limitations presented by similar technologies.”
The flexibility of the Seegrid technology is paramount for the ever-changing demands in distribution and manufacturing environments. With more challenging delivery requirements, shorter contract durations, increasing client demands, and increased product variation, Seegrid robotic industrial trucks prove to be the right answer for many companies.
John Hayes, National Account Manager for Seegrid, was pleased about the new partnership and noted, “Seegrid is very happy to partner with Bastian Solutions. The innovation and dedication they bring to their customers is second to none; not just material handling but to all manner of business solutions. Their list of satisfied customers reads like a 'who's who' of industry. Bastian Solutions can bring years of experience to companies both large and small, and we are proud to have them as a partner.”
“Seegrid robotic trucks can be productive on the first day of implementation and brought up to full capacity very quickly,” Jones added. “As a proven and advanced form of technology, Seegrid robotic trucks are also the kind of innovative solutions our clients have come to expect from us. We look forward to implementing this technology to help our customers achieve their business objectives.”
