Wacker Neuson Group opens new distribution center in Mülheim-Kärlich

• New logistics site of the Wacker Neuson Group in Mülheim-Kärlich goes into operation
• Expansion of the global spare parts and service business
• Sustainable and highly efficient warehouse logistics in cooperation with Kühne+Nagel

(Munich / Mühlheim-Kärlich, 14 June 2024) The Wacker Neuson Group opened its new parts distribution center in Mülheim-Kärlich at the beginning of June 2024 after a construction period of 1.5 years.

The state-of-the-art logistics site of the globally active construction machinery manufacturer headquartered in Munich is strategically located between the airports of Frankfurt am Main and Cologne/Bonn and is therefore optimally connected to the international transport networks. The 55,000 m2 distribution warehouse stocks around 100,000 different spare parts for construction equipment and compact machines. In future, the warehouse in Mülheim-Kärlich will be the hub for the global distribution of spare parts for the Group's three core brands: Wacker Neuson, Kramer and Weidemann.

Expansion of the spare parts and service business

With its future-proof storage capacity, the new distribution center will secure the basis for further expansion of the Wacker Neuson Group's spare parts and services business and thus support the company's long-term growth strategy. By expanding its global spare parts supply, the Wacker Neuson Group is underlining its strategic goals and strengthening customer support for its construction and agricultural partners. "The opening of our parts distribution center in Mülheim-Kärlich is a decisive step towards becoming a long-term solution provider for our customers. Not only will classic spare parts be stored here, but additional services will also be offered to optimize and further develop customer support," explains Andrew Voigt, Managing Director of Wacker Neuson Aftermarket & Services GmbH. "We are the partner on our customers' side for the entire lifetime of the machines and create sustainable relationships – beyond the sale of the machines and construction equipment."

State-of-the-art automation and sustainability

Warehouse operations are highly efficient with a strong degree of automation and digitalization. This includes an automated small parts warehouse with over 30 robots and around 200,000 storage locations as well as a digital training platform and innovative shop-floor management. "Thanks to the central location and state-of-the-art warehouse technology, customers benefit from a significantly improved service, more flexibility in ordering times and an optimized transport network," explains Steffen Streubel, Head of Parts Operations at Wacker Neuson Aftermarket & Services GmbH.

With the construction and operation of the new distribution center, the Wacker Neuson Group is also taking care to keep its own CO2 footprint as low as possible. The building was constructed in accordance with the highest sustainability standards of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) and has applied for the corresponding platinum certification. It is equipped with a photovoltaic system with a peak output of 3.2 megawatts and energy-efficient storage technology. E-charging stations for employees and visitors are also planned.

The logistics experts from Kühne+Nagel will be responsible for operations on site. As a long-standing partner of the Wacker Neuson Group, the successful cooperation will be continued and expanded.
