success story
With the new logistics campus in Siegenburg, Wolf’s logistics structure is being optimized and designed for the company’s future development. The required warehouse capacities, storage and logistics processes were analyzed in detail and adapted to the upcoming requirements. The optimum degree of automation for the warehouse areas was also defined and evaluated in an overarching business case.
Rothbaum’s methodical approach and analytical skills have decisively advanced our factory and logistics of the future.

Heat pumps are one of the products manufactured at the main site in Mainburg. The logistics system also needs to be further developed in order to optimize the plant for the future requirements of heat pump production. To this end, a logistics campus is being built in the immediate vicinity of the Mainburg plant, which will be used for distribution and production supply. Together with Rothbaum, the requirements for the new logistics system were defined and the logistics campus, including the warehouse structure, was designed and a profitability analysis drawn up.
First, the Rothbaum consultants worked with Wolf employees to gain an overview of the processes in the specialist areas of production, supply chain and logistics by analyzing processes and recording data. Based on the data evaluations, the optimal plant layout and logistics requirements were derived. As part of the logistics campus concept, various plots of land were examined and the buildings and warehouse structure were designed.
The first step in the project was to plan the plant structure. Due to the expected growth in heat pump production, additional space had to be created in the plant for production. Typically, logistics areas are freed up for this purpose in order to ensure efficient production processes. This was also the case in this project.
At the same time, this necessity is also an opportunity to redesign the logistics system and to adapt it just as efficiently to future requirements.
Following an in-depth analysis of the current situation and growth scenarios, the development of various logistics concepts with different warehouse technologies, the examination of various plots of land in the surrounding area and a comprehensive evaluation as part of a business case, the ground-breaking ceremony for the Siegenburg logistics campus took place on September 11, 2023.
