The strong attendance and lively exhibition floor at last week's MODEX may indicate that life is returning to normal in the world of materials handling. We conclude our show reports this week with some insights from the vendors - and most agree that the biggest challenge is labour, hence the strong focus on automation.
Our attention will soon turn to LogiMAT in Germany in late May, and it will be interesting to see if it's business as usual, especially as Europe continues to face significant uncertainty, not least due to the conflict to its east.
Forkliftaction will be at the show and we look forward to catching up with old friends and making new connections - hopefully in better times!
