Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Explosive Growth in E-Commerce Demand:

The growth of e-commerce has placed unprecedented pressures on warehouses and distribution centers to pick and ship goods quickly and accurately. These centers now receive and process large numbers of small individual orders that require frequent and high-volume picking and order fulfilment. In warehouse picking operation, travel time is estimated to be 50% of the total time and over 50% of the total costs associated to warehouse operations. This has led people to consider the adoption of piece picking robots for warehouse operations. As consumers demand faster deliveries and accurate shipments, automation is critical to competing in warehousing and manufacturing. Piece picking robots can fill thousands of orders each day. They can perform functions more accurately than manual laborers, at the same speed required at busy times like Black Friday or the holiday shopping season.

• Revolutionary Technology Integration:

The robotics industry is experiencing a technology revolution driving the advancement of piece picking. Piece picking robots with advanced sensors, vision systems, and artificial intelligence capabilities make it possible to precisely recognize, grasp, and sort a staggering number of different consumer products and packaging items across a variety of applications. Machine learning algorithms allow these systems to adapt automatically to changes in the way items are arranged or ordered as well as other changes in the inventory without needing a programmer to make configuration changes. For example, RightHand Robotics introduced the RightPick 4 in January 2024, which is able to pick items that are 25 percent larger, and 50 percent heavier than previous versions. Second, Berkshire Grey received calculated investment from Rockwell Automation in March 2025 to scale its business in Europe and North America. In October 2024, Berkshire Grey launched the V3 Put Wall, which is in global deployment. Combined, these show that robots are becoming smarter and more flexible and efficient at handling a diversity of picking use cases.

• Critical Labor Shortage Solutions:

A global shortage of workers in many industries has made it difficult for companies to fill physical, repetitive jobs. One solution is piece picking robots. Robots can also handle repetitive tasks that are not appealing to human workers, as demographics and labor force interests change over time. The cost of labor is increasing and industry analysis predicts that over 150,000 picking robots will be deployed before the end of the decade (2030). Such systems are used in locations that are hazardous or where the conditions are too hot or too cold for a human worker. Companies such as Staples have contracted robotics providers for multiple years to help with their order fulfillment operations. This resilience to labor market challenges makes piece picking robots an important investment for companies looking to achieve more stable and consistent operations.

• Massive Infrastructure Modernization Projects:

Warehouses and distribution centers around the world are being completely redesigned and revamped to meet the new global marketplace and to automate operations to become more competitive. For example, in 2024, the American multinational conglomerate Honeywell formed a partnership with American technology-based company Berkshire Grey to provide integrated automated robotic sortation and picking solutions for retail, distribution and fulfillment centers to meet the future of logistics infrastructure to be improved by robotics technology and warehouse management systems. Companies are also looking at the long-term benefits of piece picking robots in the areas of flexibility and scalability. Companies want to be able to use modularity to their advantage, which allows them to add capacity when needed and to make sure that the entire operational process does not have to be stopped.

• Enhanced Operational Efficiency and Scalability:

Piece picking robots have operational advantages over older methods and technology. They can operate 24/7 without fatigue, maintaining speed and accuracy during shift changes and peak demand periods. In fact, during peak periods when order volume increases greatly, they can be used to increase warehouse throughput without the risks linked with relying on seasonal labor, which requires hiring and training. Other features such as setting optimized picking paths but also minimizing of travel time and maximizing speed and efficiency of throughput become worthwhile with tens of thousands of stock keeping units (SKU) and the large square footage an e-fulfillment center typically covers. The flexibility of piece picking robots means that they can be reprogrammed to undertake other activities making the investment more justifiable. They can also be expanded from low numbers to high numbers as the business grows. This potentially means that the investment required does not need to be made upfront, rather it grows with the business.
