The peak season is just around the corner, and this year, the outlook is huge. With GST cuts across categories like consumer electronics, household essentials, and more, shoppers are ready to spend.

For a warehouse, that translates to one thing: a massive surge in shipments.
What was once 6,000 packages a day could now easily balloon to 36,000 packages a day.

The Hidden Challenge

It’s not just about managing more packages. The real challenge is scaling fast without bloated costs, idle capacity post-peak, or operational chaos.

Traditional sorters weren’t designed for this. They’re rigid, space-hungry, and slow to adapt.

Enter ASTRO: Sorting, Reinvented

Astro was built with scalability at its core.

  • Before peak: 1 Astro efficiently handles 6,000 shipments/day

  • During peak: Volumes grow 6X → simply add 5 more Astros to scale to 36,000/day

  • Space impact: All within a compact 2000 sq. ft. footprint

No major construction. No downtime. No overinvestment.

How ASTRO Solves These Challenges?

ASTRO isn’t just a sorter – it’s the flexible, intelligent backbone that helps you:

  • Adapt instantly to demand surges
  • Keep operations lean and profitable
  • Stay ahead of competition in the most critical season of the year

Why ASTRO Is the Future of Sorting

4X Faster Than Manual Sorting: While manual sorting handles just 300–500 items/hour, ASTRO processes up to 1,200 items/hour, significantly boosting throughput with minimal manpower.

70% Space Savings for Compact Facilities: Unlike legacy sorting systems, ASTRO optimizes vertical real estate, making it ideal for urban fulfillment centers or small-sized DCs.

Flexibility for Irregular or Fragile Items: Where traditional sorters struggle, ASTRO excels. It adapts chute sizes and workflows for soft goods, returns or mixed SKUs.

ROI in 1.5 Years: While typical systems take 3-5 years for payback, ASTRO delivers ROI in 12-18 months through labor reduction, space savings and throughput gains.

Watch ASTRO in Action

As order volumes surge, SKUs diversify and customers demand faster delivery, small and mid-sized warehouses can no longer rely on manual processes or oversized fixed automation.

ASTRO is the smart, scalable path forward.

It grows with you, adapts with you, and most importantly – performs with you.
