Founded in 1973 in Bomporto (Modena), Trascar S.r.l. is a leader in the fieldof logistics automation andindustrial intralogistics. With over fifty years of experience in the design and installation of integrated material handling and storage systems, Trascar develops custom solutions that include automated warehouses, palletizing, conveying, picking, and sorting systems.

Thanks to technical expertise honed over time and a deep understanding of market needs, Trascar delivers value to Italian and international companies seeking to optimize their logistics processes and make their supply chains more efficient, safe, and sustainable.

A significant example of this evolution is Trascar’s “Goods to Person” range. These automated solutions utilize wireless automated material-handling vehicles to retrieve goods and deliver them to pickers, thereby eliminating much of the traditional manual movement of goods.

Concrete Benefits of Goods-to-Person Solutions for Companies and Operators

The adoption of Goods-to-Person systems represents a significant change in warehouse management, not only in terms of productivity but also in terms of operator health, safety, and satisfaction.

• From an operational standpoint, these systems drastically reduce downtime caused by workers moving around the warehouse, allowing them to focus their efforts on the actual picking process. This translates into faster order fulfillment, greater accuracy (fewer errors), and smoother management of demand spikes, especially in e-commerce or services with extremely high variability.
• From a workplace health perspective, the use of robots or automated systems that bring goods to the operator—rather than the other way around—helps mitigate repetitive physical strain, poor posture, and the risk of injuries related to manual lifting, twisting, falls, or collisions. This not only improves employee well-being but can also reduce costs associated with occupational illnesses, absenteeism, and employee turnover.

A key factor that sets Trascar apart is the approach it takes to every project. It’s not simply a matter of providing technology or software, but rather of offering consulting that begins with listening and analysis: understanding the actual flow of materials, measuring demand peaks, assessing the number of SKUs, defining fulfillment timelines, and verifying the available budget. On this basis, we build a solution that guarantees the best return on investment, balancing performance, reliability, and costs.

“The real difference is made in the preliminary phase: understanding not only what the customer thinks they need, but what they truly need—from both an operational and human perspective—prevents surprises, hidden costs, and inefficiencies that multiply over time.”

Comments Matteo Ranuccini, Sales Manager at Trascar.

Thanks to the technical and industrial expertise Trascar has built up (mechatronics, software, robotics, and electrical automation), the company is able to integrate both its own components and those of international partners, offering not only standard solutions but also “tailor-made” solutions, customized and adapted to meet the diverse needs or constraints of its customers.

“For us at Trascar, technology is not an end in itself: every automation system must serve to make work more sustainable, both for the company and for the people. We want operators to work better, not just faster; reducing risk also means ensuring operational continuity and quality.”

Ranuccini adds.

In every proposal, Trascar considers scalability and return on investment to be key. Italian companies rarely can afford investments without clarity on payback periods; for this reason , Trascar designs modular solutions that can grow with the company, expand gradually , or be integrated with other systems. Even in terms of initial costs, Trascar works to offer solutions that are compatible with the customer’s budget, avoiding over-engineering and focusing on what delivers tangible value.

“The Goods-to-Person solutions we offer are not merely a ‘technological upgrade’; they are a strategic response to challenges that many Italian companies are facing or will face—such as growing demand, competitiveness, safety requirements, sustainable work models, and constant pressure on margins. The combination of over half a century of experience, our capabilities as a system integrator, our thorough preliminary consulting, our focus on people, our commitment to staying within budget, and our scalability make us the ideal partner for those who want to evolve and remain competitive.”
