||904-11-2025Kardex Investor Day - The University Children’s Hospital Zurich Supplies to different floors and wardsA hospital contains of many small stocks spread over the entire hospital – to always have the material nearbyEach ward orders to their own stock which creates multiple stocks of same products within a hospitalThis creates unnecessarily high stock levels. When it’s empty in my stock, where do I find the material?The inbound goods must be delivered to all ward stocks. After unpacking, the waste is brought back againGoods transport operated in elevators that should have been used for patients The traditional way of designing a hospital
Page 10
||1004-11-2025Kardex Investor Day - The University Children’s Hospital Zurich At a large Danish hospital, management confirms that in average a porter spends 1 hour per day waiting in front of elevatorsWith 420 porters working 200 days per year would mean a 10% spend handling beds which equals with 8’400 hours used only for waiting or 4 FTE´s!Visitors must wait up to 20 min for an elevator At Karlstad Hospital (SE), nurses spend up to 4 hours per shift to pick and distribute itemsIntroducing automated storage solutions saves up to 90% space. With a building cost of +5’000 EUR/m2, this obviously results in a very short ROIAt the same time, Kardex solutions free-up capacity in elevators and give more time for porters, nurses etc. to patient related work What does this mean…?

The system is designed as a horizontal carousel due to the low ceiling heights and the different sized containers. In order to retrieve material without personnel during the night shift, they would like to have a fully automated system.For the storage of surgical instruments, VLMs should be designed to combine sterilization and the pre-operative zone. Two independent devices should be available to ensure redundancy.
