AR Racking and WiLog deepen their cooperation in Finland

• Boost to the partner network in Northern Europe under the #GrowingTogether programme.
• WiLog: comprehensive local service and a nationwide technical network backed by five years of joint projects with AR Racking.

AR Racking and WiLog are celebrating the fifth anniversary of their cooperation in Finland and taking a further step in their alliance, with WiLog, a company integrated within the Technical Trade division of the Wihuri Group, acting as AR Racking’s official distributor in the country. This partnership is part of #GrowingTogether, the programme through which AR Racking supports and empowers its strategic distributors worldwide.

The cooperation between AR Racking and WiLog started five years ago and has evolved from the supply of individual storage projects to a strategic collaboration with a long-term vision for the Finnish market.

Wihuri Group is a private, family-owned Finnish industrial conglomerate founded in 1901. Headquartered in Helsinki, it has a diversified and international structure and operates across several business sectors. Within its Technical Trade division, the company is dedicated to the sale, spare parts, and after-sales service of forklifts (Linde and Still), with distribution points across the country.

WiLog, part of the Technical Trade division, specialises in intralogistics solutions that include AGV/AMR equipment from Linde and Still, Modula vertical storage systems, warehouse automation solutions, and AR Racking’s industrial storage systems. This combination of solutions offers an integrated approach that naturally connects forklifts and racking systems, optimising material flow, safety, and operational efficiency in warehouses.

Harry Broman, Business Unit Director at Wihuri Oy Technical Trade – WiLog, states: “The collaboration with AR Racking strengthens our overall intralogistics and warehouse automation offering. This agreement allows us to provide our customers with a more comprehensive portfolio that includes high-quality and reliable storage systems.”

Jon Ibarrolaza, Area Manager at AR Racking for the Nordics, Eastern Europe and Italy, adds: “WiLog is a strategic partner that shares our vision of comprehensive service, efficiency, and commitment to innovation. The integration between forklifts and racking systems is key to warehouse performance, and this alliance will strengthen AR Racking’s presence in Finland and open new opportunities for collaboration within the Wihuri Group.”

WiLog’s operational capability is another key differentiator: it provides service and spare parts across Finland, with centres in Vantaa, Lempäälä, Turku, Kuopio and Oulu, plus a mobile maintenance network of 70 specialists that ensures fast response times and operational continuity.

With this renewed agreement, AR Racking strengthens its cooperation with a partner with local experience, strong after-sales service, and nationwide reach, further reinforcing its leadership in the design and supply of high-performance storage systems. For companies in Finland already relying on Linde and Still forklifts through WiLog, this deeper collaboration between AR Racking and WiLog provides a complementary solution that enhances overall warehouse efficiency — tailored solutions with close support, from engineering to commissioning, backed by AR Racking’s quality and reliability.
