Intelligrated, Trew and Transnorm unite to create unified warehouse automation provider

American Industrial Partners

Following American Industrial Partners' acquisition of Honeywell Technologies Warehouse and Workflow Solutions business, which includes Intelligrated and Transnorm, a new united warehouse automation organization, including Trew, was formed.

American Industrial Partners (AIP) announced the completion of its acquisition of Honeywell Technologies Warehouse and Workflow Solutions business, which includes Intelligrated and Transnorm.

With the transaction complete, Intelligrated, Trew and Transnorm now operate under one organization, which the company said is singularly focused on helping customers design, build and support world-class warehouse automation offerings for retail, e-commerce, manufacturing, distribution and parcel operations.

The combined organization said that it brings together trusted automation expertise, complementary technologies, systems design and project management, with expanded manufacturing, engineering and service capacity. Together, the businesses said that they will offer one of the industry's most comprehensive portfolios of equipment, software and services to help customers optimize today's operations, modernize fulfillment networks and prepare for tomorrow's increasingly complex distribution challenges. 

AIP said that the new organization is purpose-built around warehouse automation, enabling faster decision-making, focused investment and greater consistency for customers. AIP said that it brings to market a combined automation portfolio that includes systems integration, conveyor, sortation, robotics, ASRS, palletizing, software, controls and lifecycle services.

Alfred Rebello has been appointed CEO of the combined organization. AIP said that Rebello brings more than 35 years of experience in material handling and warehouse automation. He served as an integral part of Intelligrated since its founding in 2001, and led manufacturing, project execution and installation as senior vice president of operations through Honeywell's acquisition of the company. He joined Trew as president and COO in 2022 before his promotion to CEO in 2023.

"Today is more than simply bringing three respected organizations together,” Rebello said. “It's about creating a future built entirely around our customers' success. By combining our expertise, technologies and talent, we're able to deliver broader capabilities, stronger execution and continued investment in innovation, while providing the continuity and trusted relationships customers depend on."

AIP said that customer activities will be uninterrupted while the organizations align. Intelligrated, Trew and Transnorm will continue serving customers under their existing brands. Products, services, contracts, support teams and customer relationships remain in place. AIP added that the sole focus of its new ownership is investing in and growing industrial businesses.

In the coming months, the combined organization said that it will work closely with customers and partners to determine the best long-term operating model and strategies for success. 

"Bringing these businesses together is a growth strategy targeting a growing market,” Rebello added. “The numbers tell that story - industry research commonly projects double-digit growth in warehouse automation into the 2030s. To meet that demand, we must listen deeply to our customers and continually invest in tomorrow’s innovations. Earning their trust through every phase of their automation journey is how we’ll measure our success moving forward."
