Element Logic, an integrator for automated warehouse solutions centered around the AutoStore system, is pleased to announce the acquisition of SDI Industries, a U.S. provider of turnkey automation solutions and sortation systems.
SDI Industries was founded in 1977, specializing in systems integration and automated solutions. The company has eight locations across the U.S. and five Latin American countries.
Element Logic employs more than 275 specialists across Europe who design, implement, deliver and service tailor made robotic solutions in warehouses of all sizes in a wide range of industries. Through the acquisition of SDI Industries, Element Logic expands its footprint into North and South America and adds more than 200 experts. SDI Industries will leverage Element Logic’s expertise as a leading AutoStore integrator in Europe to expand its service offering and become an AutoStore integrator in the US.
“I look forward to having SDI Industries on board. This acquisition is an important milestone of our strategy of becoming the leading integrator for automated warehouse solutions globally. With SDI we see an incredible opportunity to enter the highly attractive American market together with a partner that accelerates our growth strategy,” says Dag-Adler Blakseth, co-founder and CEO of Element Logic.
Through partnering with SDI Industries, Element Logic expands its product offering to sortation equipment solutions and gains the ability to roll-out its AutoStore integration services across the U.S. market.
“We are thrilled to be part of the Element Logic group and having a partner with a shared vision and similar culture as well as years of expertise. We look forward to growing together with Element Logic and the opportunities the partnership will bring,” says Krish Nathan, CEO of SDI Industries.
