KUKA AG, headquartered in Augsburg, is one of the world’s leading suppliers of intelligent robotics, plant and system technology. To ensure that internal waste disposal at the headquarters in Augsburg is efficient and modern in the future, investments are being made in this area and the waste disposal concept developed by ELOGplan is being rolled out. At the end of the year, the disposal centre will go into operation, after which tugger trains will be installed for disposal logistics and standardised multifunctional containers (MFB) will be used to collect waste at the points of generation.

Based on the MFB designed by BÜCHL, some site-specific adjustments were made to the container for KUKA and tested in a pilot operation. KUKA was convinced of the advantages of the container and ordered around 170 of the high-quality containers from ELOGplan. The MFBs will be manufactured in batches at a specialist company in the coming months and will be used in Augsburg from 2024.
