Automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) is an automated system dedicated to material storage, handling, and retrieval when required. ASRS is divided into two parts; first part comprises a central computer with the human interface. The second part is the storage and retrieval machine. Attributes such as increased accuracy and quick operation are making industries across the world to adopt ASRS, thus boosting the growth of ASRS market.
Automated storage and retrieval system market is highly driven by the ever increasing requirement for effective material management system across industrial organizations. Manufacturing firms spend a fortune for accurate material storage, retrieval, and handling. However, human labor does not appropriately justify the time and money involved for material storage and retrieval. In order to overcome such issues, manufacturing units and warehouses are opting for automated storage and retrieval systems. Customization and flexibility are another major factors boosting the ASRS market growth. However, factors such as high installation costs and overall maintenance cost are few restraints which affect the ASRS market growth, as small plants cannot prefer for such costly automation.
Automated storage and retrieval system is divided, based on their types into unit load ASRS, mini-load ASRS, vertical lift module, carousel type ASRS and micro-load ASRS. ASRS is further segmented, on the basis of end-use industry, into automotive, food and beverages, chemicals, metals and machinery, electronics and semiconductors, e-commerce, third-party logistics and others. Others include aviation, textile, paper, and healthcare.

By Type Segmentation:
Different types of ASRS are being used for various applications across different sectors for storage and material handling. Unit load ASRS is the most preferred system across different industrial sectors. Unit-load ASRS is designed to handle the pallet sized load and has the capacity to lift load above 2000 kg with exceptional accuracy. Industries including automotive, chemicals and metal and machinery prefer unit load ASRS for storing and retrieving of heavy loads. Unit load ASRS is designed to reach the highest point of storage where even forklifts are unable to retrieve materials. All these factors propose unit load ASRS as a prime choice of industries for heavy material storage and handling. Rise in aforesaid industries and increase in adoption of unit load ASRS would lead unit load ASRS to dominate this segment during the forecast.
Mini-load ASRS succeeds unit load ASRS in this segment as of 2020. This system is designed to handle small loads such as individual parts, tools, and supplies that are contained in bins or drawers in the storage system. Such a system is applicable where the availability of space is limited. Mini-load ASRS finds its application in small warehouses and distribution centers across different storage domains. Suitability for small spaces and low initial investments are making mini-load ASRS, the fastest growing in this segment in coming years.
By Industry Segmentation:
The ASRS is used across various applications such as a warehouse, E-commerce, third-party logistics, automotive, food, and beverages, along with consumer product manufacturing. The automotive sector is among the largest consumers of ASRS worldwide. In an automobile assembly unit, wide arrays of parts are assembled. This requires highly accurate and effective storage and retrieval system, failure of which may lead to delay in production and related losses. As a result, ASRS has become highly popular in the automotive industry, over a period of time. With steady anticipated growth across the automotive industry, the segment would continue dominating the market.
The overall demand for ASRS system is estimated to remain relatively steady in the electronics and semiconductor industry. Electronics and semiconductor manufacturing unit require a wide variety of components which are usually very delicate and small in sizes. Storing and retrieval of such parts through ASRS proves to be expensive for small production units. Consequently, deployment of ASRS system in electronics and semiconductors is still limited. Further, the E-commerce sector is estimated to witness strong growth during the forecast period. With the rapid proliferation in online shopping, the e-commerce sector is expected to continue demonstrating strong growth in the coming years. In order to carry smooth process, e-commerce companies are required to maintain an organized warehouse. Subsequently, rising e-commerce sector would substantially drive the demand for related to warehouse management systems such as ASRS.
Europe dominates the overall ASRS market as of 2020. Countries including the U.K., France, Germany and others have a heavy concentration of manufacturing units. Automotive, food and beverages, metals and machinery are the predominant industrial sectors in this region. Industries across this region are opting for automation of different processes of manufacturing including material storage and handling. Consequently, adoption for ASRS for material storage and retrieval by industries across this region is growing significantly.
Asia Pacific is estimated to emerge as the fastest growing region in the overall ASRS market. Significant growth in manufacturing units in countries including China, Japan, South Korea, India and some of the Southeast Asia countries has been observed in nascent time. The Strong presence of mass manufacturing and warehouses has inculcated firm requirement of organized material storage and retrieval system. Companies are adopting sophisticated techniques such as ASRS for efficient and organized material storage and retrieval system. Subsequently, demand for ASRS is exhibiting a significant growth in Asia Pacific market in terms of revenue.
