Vertical automated warehousing systems and logistics automation
Modula manufactures vertical automated storage systems that compress warehouse footprints by over 90% while maintaining picking speed and worker ergonomics. The tech stack is enterprise-grade (SAP MM/SD/FI-CO, SQL Server, .NET/C#) with embedded hardware control (PLC, C++, Linux), reflecting a manufacturing-software hybrid business. Current hiring is heavily engineering-focused (7 of 10 open roles), concentrated in Italy, suggesting domestic production scaling rather than geographic expansion.
Modula designs and builds vertical automated warehouse systems for mid-market logistics operators and manufacturers seeking high-density, high-speed storage without expanding facility footprint. Headquartered in Salvaterra, Reggio Emilia, Italy, with a second facility in Lewiston, Maine, the company operates within System Group—a larger industrial automation conglomerate active for 45+ years across ceramics equipment and material handling, with over 1,000 employees across 35 sites in 25 countries. Modula's offering combines hardware (the vertical carousel mechanism), PLC-driven control software, and warehouse management systems (WMS) integration. The company provides logistics consulting alongside product implementation to optimize internal supply-chain processes, manage product traceability, and ensure goods security.
Modula's stack spans SAP modules (MM, SD, FI-CO) for enterprise backend, .NET/C# and SQL Server for application layer, and C++/Linux/PLC for hardware control and real-time warehouse automation logic.
