GEODIS, a global leader in logistics and distribution, has long relied on case and pallet picking as a core part of its warehouse operations. Seeking to reduce manual travel and improve fulfillment speed, the company implemented CaseFlow, Vecna Robotics' intelligent case picking solution.

Andy Johnston, Senior Director of Design Engineering & Innovation, and Steve Elsbury, Senior Operations Manager at GEODIS, share the company's experience deploying the system across its operations. The introduction of CaseFlow brought immediate benefits. Associates now receive orders directly at their location, eliminating the need for repeated travel to induction points. This shift has contributed to increased picking rates, improved productivity, and greater alignment with incentive-based pay structures.

Element’s Charlotte lab makes tensile specimens from turbine blade roots

Element’s Charlotte lab makes tensile specimens from turbine blade roots

Element Materials Technology’s Charlotte lab wire-EDMs one-eighth-inch cylinders from the root of a turbine blade and low-stress grinds them into tensile specimens—work value stream manager Daniel Steele says he’s not aware other labs do at this size. The lab, which invested $3.2 million in 2019 according to Aerospace Manufacturing and Design, is adding creep and stress rupture frames under a lease signed in January.

  • 01The extraction know-how has a paper trail: Aerospace Manufacturing and Design reported in March 2019 that Element’s $3.2 million Charlotte investment included EDM plunge machines—and that Charlotte was the first Element lab to install them for extracting cylindrical specimen blanks.
  • 02Deloitte's November 2025 outlook put manufacturing construction spending down 7% year over year by July 2025, so a lab adding floor space and creep frames is growing inside one of the few pockets Deloitte flagged for expansion.

NMHC survey: 37% raised pricing on projects on hold

NMHC survey: 37% raised pricing on projects on hold

NMHC's September construction survey found 37% of respondents repriced shelved projects upward, versus 17% in June. Starts slowed too: 29% of firms started fewer projects, and a growing share saw labor and material costs outrun inflation.

  • 01Upward repricing of projects held three to six months rose from 17% of survey respondents in June to 37% in September, while downward repricing fell from 38% to 14%.

CMHA’s 2026 report estimates paver and wall production

CMHA's 2026 Hardscape Production Report combines confidential survey data from 41 manufacturers with broader industry estimates to track segmental concrete pavement and retaining wall production in the US and Canada.

  • 01CMHA surveyed 26 pavement and 38 segmental retaining wall (SRW) producers, with many making both products, combining confidential data with broader industry estimates.
  • 02NALP forecasts mild to moderate 2026 growth with regional variation, as inflation pressures consumers and landscapers struggle to hire qualified crews and maintain margins.
  • 03Manufacturers expect future product innovation around sustainability, stormwater management, design flexibility, and installation efficiency.
