Cincinnati, Ohio — March 1, 2016 — Intelligrated, a leading North American-based automated material handling solutions provider, announces its lineup for MODEX 2016, April 4-7 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta. At booth #2747, Intelligrated will exhibit innovative automated equipment that delivers speed, accuracy, and product-handling flexibility to optimize distribution and fulfillment operations.

As retailers face challenges like next-day shipping of smaller order sizes, Intelligrated sortation solutions provide fast, accurate handling of polybags, cartons, and totes for high-throughput distribution and fulfillment applications.
