Rethink your vehicle logistics operations

Transforming vehicle production, logistics, and depot operations with efficient automation, controlled by Unikie Marshalling Solution.

Each day, millions of vehicles are driven around in gated areas. New vehicles on their way from factories to dealers, buses in depots, trucks and trailers in logistics centers and commercial vehicles in last-mile delivery centers. All these logistics applications are facing massive challenges with driver capacity, flexibility and cost – and most critically with performance.

Unikie drives the change in vehicle logistics by completely automating driving and services – without drivers, without waiting times, without human restrictions.
