INTRALOGISTICS LEADER OPENS STATE-OF-THE-ART DEMONSTRATION CENTRE IN BASINGSTOKE

Linde Material Handling, a leader in the intralogistics sector, has officially opened its new, state-of-the-art Experience Centre in Basingstoke.

The 600m² facility has been purpose-built to provide customers and partners with an immersive environment in which to experience Linde MH’s equipment and integrated warehouse solutions.

Designed to accommodate up to 40 guests, the centre includes a dedicated presentation area along with a series of interactive ‘solution zones’, where visitors can see how the brand’s products and technologies operate in real-world scenarios.

A key focus of the Experience Centre is safety innovation. Demonstrations include Linde’s Reverse Assist Radar, advanced camera systems and Linde Safety Guard – an intelligent early warning system designed to monitor for and proactively alert operators to potential hazards, including the risk of collisions.

Visitors will also be able to experience Linde’s latest generation of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment, as the brand continues to invest in the evolution of its product range.

Sustainability is another central theme, with the facility spotlighting Linde’s growing portfolio of energy-efficient equipment and environmentally conscious solutions, designed to help customers reduce emissions and improve sustainability.

Rob Phillips, Demo Centre Manager at Linde Material Handling, said: “The opening of our new Experience Centre is an important moment for Linde Material Handling in the UK.

“We’ve been based in Basingstoke for 77 years, and this investment strengthens those roots while creating something genuinely valuable for our customers.”

He added: “Every operation is different, and the pressures around safety, efficiency and sustainability are only growing. The centre gives businesses the opportunity to see our solutions in action, ask questions and explore how they can make a difference for their own operations.”

The Linde Experience Centre is now open for scheduled visits, demonstrations and customer events.
