Artificial Intelligence and logistics in the fastening sector 10 September 2024

Here Ambrovit explains how, in the era of Industry 4.0, technological innovation is transforming every sector – with logistics no exception. Companies are seeing Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a handy solution to different problems, permanently changing the way they work. From operational efficiency to customer service, every area is affected by the ‘revolution'.

The impact of AI on businesses – benefits and risks

Today AI is changing the business world thanks to the many functionalities that can be applied to every sector. It is particularly useful, for example, in allowing companies to predict market trends and enabling them to innovate products to remain competitive. Similarly, by analysing data and customer preferences, AI facilitates the customisation of the offer, adapting it to the specific needs and desires of consumers. 

In addition, AI is useful in calculating management, security and cybersecurity risks, offering companies strategies to mitigate potential threats. Finally, it can help in assessing sustainability risks, supporting businesses in adopting more sustainable practices and contributing to a greener future. Thanks to these advances, AI enables companies to improve operational efficiency and maintain a competitive advantage in a rapidly changing market. 

On the other hand, there are certain risks associated with the use of AI that companies should be aware of and be able to anticipate. These are mainly critical issues related to the privacy of sensitive data, which can be overcome through transparency of use by companies, but also related to the inevitable changes in the world of work, which can be solved through adequate staff training.

Ambrovit’s advanced logistics 

Ambrovit SpA stands out for its ability to innovate while maintaining a strong focus on quality and efficiency. The Proxima and Orion warehouses in Garlasco, linked by a 26m bridge, are equipped with automated storage systems that optimise space and reduce product search times. Thanks to the ‘real time’ monitoring of stock levels, orders are automatically generated when needed, thus improving operational efficiency and supply chain management. For Ambrovit: ‘The future is an incredible adventure’, to be lived with enthusiasm and determination. Besides being a slogan, this motto represents Ambrovit’s positive attitude towards innovation and anticipation of market trends.

This is how GO Easy! was born, which is a new brand dedicated to the world of DIY – positioning itself in a brand new market with a fresh and affordable image. Designed to make the purchase of screws and bolts easier and more accessible to end consumers, and to improve the user experience, GO Easy! guarantees its customers access to the right tools.

Ambrovit’s future: Not just technology

In 2024 Ambrovit launched its new website that continues its ‘we are not numbers’ motto. 

The message is clear – despite the great importance the company gives to technological innovations, these will not replace the inestimable value of the human component. In an increasingly technology driven world, Ambrovit’s approach to change represents a path to a more efficient and innovative future. Through the optimisation of logistic processes, and the introduction of customised solutions for DIY, Ambrovit not only embraces change, but drives it – showing how innovation can be successfully integrated into every aspect of business. The future of logistics is here and Ambrovit is at the forefront, ready to seize every opportunity it has to offer.
