It is NewCold’s firm believe that automated cold storage is the only way forward to deal with the challenges of a modern supply chain. Although automation is not a goal by itself, many, mainly repetitive processes, are automated to minimize the human intervention. This eliminates an important source of product damage, results in a more reliable and predictable operation and also ensures a sustainable cost over time.
Warehouse Management Systems
The warehouse management software (WMS) used by NewCold in its automated facilities is a proprietary product that is developed by daughter company Davanti Warehousing, which has proven highly successful in NewCold’s eight facilities operating around the world.
Davanti is a WMS supplier which delivers its own state-of-the-art product.

It enables NewCold to control the software design to meet our specifications and fulfill all requirements of our customers. Want to know more?
