Pat Mitchell’s growing company, California Natural Products, was in need of a solution that none of the current automated material handling products could solve. Pat wanted his warehouse operation to be less costly, more productive, environmentally sustainable, and overall, less of a burden on his business. This became the driving force behind Pat’s Invention - the PowerStor. After years of development and testing, including at his own facility, Pat’s invention has now proved to meet all of the requirements he first set out to achieve.

• Less Costly
  • The PAS solution, PowerStor, costs 10-40% less to purchase than Conventional ASRS for deep lane storage applications.
  • The PowerStor operating costs are up to 80% less than a conventional storage system and 20-30% less than other ASRS systems.
• More Productive
  • The PowerStor’s throughput capability is unmatched in the industry, capable of up to 400 pallets per hour per Module.
• Environmentally Sustainable
  • The PAS solution uses significantly less energy of a conventional warehouse and approximately 15% less than other ASRS solutions.
• Less Burden on the Business
  • The PowerStor requires very little maintenance or support.
