This year’s SAPICS conference comes at a time when organisations across industries are seeking new ways to build more resilient, agile and efficient supply chains. Growing e-commerce volumes, increasing customer expectations, labour constraints and the rapid adoption of digital technologies are accelerating investment in automation and intelligent material handling solutions.
For Interroll, the event provides an important opportunity to engage with customers, partners and industry stakeholders while discussing innovations designed to address these evolving challenges. “SAPICS has long played a vital role in advancing supply chain excellence across Southern Africa,” comments Gavin Hall, Managing Director of Interroll South Africa.
“As a member organisation, we value the opportunity to contribute to industry conversations, share knowledge and engage directly with the professionals who are shaping the future of logistics and supply chain management on the continent,” he adds.
At SAPICS 2026, Interroll’s spotlight will focus on the recently launched Modular ChainBelt Sorter (MC-S) - a new addition to the company’s sorting portfolio designed specifically for courier, express and parcel (CEP), e-commerce and distribution applications that Interroll experts will be on hand to discuss.
“The logistics sector is increasingly defined by variability,” notes Hall. “Customers need solutions that can adapt to changing volumes, shifting consumer expectations and evolving operational requirements.” The MC-S has been developed with exactly these challenges in mind, providing a scalable and future-ready platform for modern logistics operations.
Interroll will also highlight MCP PLAY, the latest evolution of its Modular Conveyor Platform (MCP), which introduces advanced control capabilities, simplified commissioning and enhanced connectivity. Designed to support Industry 4.0 environments, MCP PLAY enables conveyor systems to be deployed in less time while providing greater operational visibility and control.
For Interroll, participation extends beyond product demonstrations. “Events such as SAPICS are essential because they bring together the people, ideas and technologies that drive our industry forward,” highlights Hall. “We invite delegates to visit our stand to learn more about our latest developments and discuss how Interroll’s platform-based solutions can help create more efficient, resilient and future-ready logistics operations.”
Visitors to the Interroll stand will have the opportunity to learn more about the company’s sorting technologies, Modular Conveyor Platform (MCP), MCP PLAY control environment and High-Performance Portfolio (HPP), as well as engage with Interroll specialists on the latest trends shaping the material handling and intralogistics sectors.
