MHS Lift, Inc, a leading provider of warehousing and distribution solutions across North America, today announced the expansion of its partnership with Movu Robotics, strengthening a collaboration focused on deploying next-generation automation systems for high-performance warehouses. As part of this growing relationship, MHS Lift has become the first integrator in North America to successfully commission a second Movu Robotics system, reinforcing its position as a trusted automation partner for companies seeking improved density, efficiency and scalability in their operations.

The partnership between MHS Lift and Movu Robotics dates back to 2019, when MHS Lift integrated the first Movu Robotics system in North America. Since that initial deployment, both organizations have continued to build capabilities and integration expertise, supporting customers in accelerating automation adoption while reducing complexity in implementation. The expanded partnership reflects increasing market demand for robotics-driven warehouse solutions that deliver measurable returns through smarter use of space and improved material handling performance.

“Partnering with Movu has consistently proven to be a strong decision for our clients,” said Brett Levin, Co-President of MHS Lift. “We recognized early that Movu’s technology would play a major role in the North American market. Our long-standing relationship reflects our commitment to staying ahead of emerging automation trends while delivering solutions that drive performance, improve efficiency and create lasting value.”

As part of the partnership, MHS Lift integrates Movu’s Atlas four-way shuttle system, a robot-assisted automated storage and retrieval system engineered to increase pallet storage density, optimize warehouse layout and improve overall material flow. Movu Atlas uses autonomous shuttle robots that transport pallets within specially designed rack lanes, enabling reduced aisle requirements and increased utilization of available warehouse space. The system also integrates with existing warehouse management systems, enabling real-time control and visibility through intelligent software.

“We are fully invested in four-way shuttle technology as a foundation for the future of warehousing,” said Ben Miller, Director of Integrated Solutions at MHS Lift. “We are building a complete ecosystem around these systems, incorporating advanced safety features, optimized maintenance planning and multi-site fleet management into a platform designed for scalability and flexibility.”

Mathieu Theureau, VP Sales US at Movu Robotics, said MHS Lift has been a key partner in Movu’s North American growth. “MHS Lift has been trusted and forward-looking since the beginning of our journey in this region,” he said. “Their deep integration expertise and strong understanding of customer requirements make them an ideal partner for deploying advanced solutions like Movu Atlas. Together, we are helping warehouses achieve higher density, greater flexibility and tangible performance improvements.”

Founded in 1970, MHS Lift provides warehouse optimization, fleet management, forklifts, aerial equipment, rentals, parts and maintenance solutions. Movu Robotics, a member of stow Group, employs more than 450 people across Europe and the USA and is recognized globally for scalable warehouse automation systems.
