Munich invests in the future: Filics will secure 13.5 million euros!

In the digital age, there is no longer a question that robotics and automation in logistics determine the future. Today we look at the Munich company Filics, which takes another step towards this future with an impressive round of finance of 13.5 million euros. The goal? The further development of your innovative robotics platform, which is already used for test customers such as Bosch and DHL.

Filics, founded in 2019, specializes in the development of flat transport robots that are autonomous and flexible to move loads of up to 1.2 tons. These robots not only work efficiently, but are also designed to optimize complex logistics processes in various environments. The company's technology has developed in several phases since 2021, supported by well -known investors such as the Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund and Bavaria Capital, as well as experienced business angels such as Andrei Danescu and Helmut Schmid, who believe in the potential of Filics.

The Filics Unit: Innovation on the pulse of the time

The company's flagship, the Filics Unit, sets new standards in intralogistics. It consists of two omnidirectional robots that were specially developed for the transport of euro pallets and euro grid boxes. Thanks to their compact design, these robots fit under the pallets and can thus maneuver through narrow rooms, which brings many advantages, especially in modern warehouses. Ifoy reports on the Filics Unit.

The advantages of the Filics Unit are impressive. It significantly reduces the space requirement for transports, maneuvers are eliminated, and automated transports save valuable time. Demanding applications such as the highly compressed floor block storage are thus possible. This efficiency not only benefits companies, but also to the environment by using resources more gently.

Current challenges of logistics

The logistics industry is currently facing enormous challenges. Global crises such as Covid-19 and geopolitical tensions have reinforced the need for a flexible and resilient logistics approach. Despite the increasing automation, the proportion of manual processes in intralogistics is still high. Companies try to make the necessary adjustments through innovative solutions such as those of Filics. After all, logistical efficiency is a decisive competitive factor in today's world, and automation is considered the key.

Market growth for automation solutions in logistics is undeniable. Forecasts show that the European market for autonomous mobile robots (AMR) could increase from USD 885 million in 2021 to 2028 to over 3.7 billion. All of this suggests that companies like Filics act in the right sector at the right moment.

With far -reaching plans to advance the market launch of the Filics Unit by the end of 2025 and enter other European markets by 2026, Filics will not only strengthen its position, but also revolutionize the pallet handling and thus the entire logistics industry. In the long term, the company strives to further develop the technology for fully autonomous loading and unloading of trucks- and all in less than five minutes. The future looks promising!

Automation in logistics is no longer just a technical gimmick, but a necessity. Companies have to adapt quickly to stay competitive. Anyone who invests in innovative solutions will soon harvest the fruits of their foresight.
