What Storage Solutions does

Storage Solutions is a U.S.-based, technology-agnostic warehouse automation and material handling systems integrator founded in 1978 and headquartered in Westfield, Indiana. Since January 2023 it has operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Jungheinrich AG, the German MDAX-listed intralogistics group (€5.4B FY2024 revenue, ~21,000 employees, 41 countries). Storage Solutions designs, sells, and installs integrated warehouse solutions for distribution-center operators across North America, covering all 50 U.S. states and 13 Canadian provinces/territories, with five office locations (Westfield, Atlanta, Erlanger, Austin, Nashville) following the 2022 acquisitions of SNC Solutions and EMIT Inc. and the 2025 acquisition of Invar.

The company's core technology stack combines warehouse equipment (pallet rack, mezzanines, vertical lift modules, carton flow, push-back, 1D shuttle) with automation hardware (Mobile AS/RS, AS/RS cranes and shuttles, AGVs/AMRs, conveyors, sortation) and software (WMS and the proprietary Warehouse Execution System acquired with Invar). Storage Solutions partners with leading manufacturers including Jungheinrich, Hai Robotics, Modula, AutoMHA, and Fetch Robotics rather than pushing a single product line, and delivers projects turnkey with in-house engineering, installation (the WSI division), and lifecycle service teams.

The business model blends project-based equipment and integration revenue with a tiered consulting front-end (Optimize from $10K, Analyze $20K-$40K, Materialize $40K+) that converts prospects into larger automation engagements, plus ongoing managed-services revenue through Lifecycle Services. End customers are predominantly enterprise warehouse and distribution-center operators across e-commerce, retail, aerospace, cold storage, and pharmaceutical verticals, served via direct enterprise field sales and supported by trade-show presence (Modex, ProMat), content marketing, and SEO-driven geographic landing pages.
