Components for retail technology

Lubrication-free, low-maintenance and durable motion plastics in the retail outlets

The retail technology sector is challenged to develop innovative systems. The new buying behaviour, away from stationary shopping towards online shopping, is causing increasing competitive pressure on the stationary retail trade. On the one hand, new automation solutions are needed to cut costs and make shopping faster, while on the other, new store and design concepts are required.
The motion plastics from igus are involved everywhere here. The high-performance polymers and cables not only ensure lubrication-free movements, but also cost-effective automation.
