Give Your Warehouse a Head Start with Kardex Pre-owned Systems
Not every automation journey needs to start from scratch. Kardex pre-owned systems deliver the same space-saving, efficiency-boosting performance you'd expect from our solutions and at a fraction of the cost and lead time.
Whether you're scaling up, replacing legacy equipment, or taking your first step into automated storage, a pre-owned Kardex system gets you there faster.
Why Buy pre-owned from Kardex?
When you buy a pre-owned system directly from Kardex, you're not buying second-hand equipment from an unknown source. Every unit is inspected and backed by the same team that designed and built it. Kardex can also offer bespoke refurbishment packages to extend the lifetime. Whichever option you choose you get full access to Kardex sales support, technical consultation, and project planning just as you would with a new system. Our specialists help you select the right configuration for your space, throughput requirements, and workflow, so nothing is left to guesswork.
Shorter Lead Times, Faster Results
New automated storage systems can take months to manufacture and deliver. Pre-owned Kardex systems are already built. Once matched to your requirements and reconditioned if preferred , they can be installed and operational in a fraction of the time. If speed matters to your project — and it usually does — pre-owned is the smartest route to going live sooner.
Lower Investment, Same Returns
A pre-owned Kardex system significantly reduces your upfront capital expenditure while still delivering the core benefits of vertical storage automation: reduced footprint, faster picking, improved accuracy, and better use of your warehouse space. It's a cost-effective way to achieve the same operational gains without waiting for a full new-build budget.
Backed by Kardex Maintenance
Every system sold through our inspection programme is eligible for a Kardex maintenance agreement. That includes preventive maintenance visits, remote diagnostics, genuine Kardex spare parts, and access to our service team — the people who know these machines inside and out. You get the same peace of mind and uptime assurance as any new installation.
Full Software Integration
Kardex pre-owned systems run on the same software platform as our new installations. That means full integration with your WMS or ERP, real-time inventory visibility, pick-to-light guidance, and user-friendly operator interfaces. You also benefit from ongoing software updates, so your system stays current long after installation. There's no compromise on intelligence or connectivity — just because the hardware has had a previous life doesn't mean the software experience is anything less than current.
