The Automated Material Handling Systems Association (AMHSA) has confirmed its partnership with Warehouse.& Yard. 2026, marking the exhibition’s debut at the National Exhibition Centre and its inclusion within the landmark UK Logistics Week.

The event will take place on 30 June – 1 July 2026 at the NEC Birmingham, bringing together leading innovators, technology providers and industry professionals focused on warehouse operations, automation and external yard management.

As part of the partnership, AMHSA will host a dedicated AMHSA Pavilion within the warehouse element of the show, giving its members a prominent platform to showcase the latest developments in automated materials handling, warehouse automation and intralogistics technologies.

AMHSA represents many of the UK’s leading providers of automated materials handling systems, with members delivering technologies ranging from robotics and automated storage systems to conveyors, sortation systems and warehouse control software. The association plays an important role in promoting innovation, technical excellence and best practice across the automation sector.

Long-standing support

AMHSA has supported the organisers since the very first event in 2023 in Telford, helping establish Warehouse.& Yard. as a focused meeting place for warehouse operators, logistics professionals and solution providers.

Its continued support reflects the growing relevance of the exhibition within the UK logistics industry.

Speaking about the partnership, Hilton Campbell, (AMHSA President)

said:

“Warehouse.& Yard. provides an excellent platform for AMHSA members to connect with logistics and warehouse operators who are actively looking to improve efficiency through automation.

As supply chains continue to evolve, automation and intelligent materials handling systems are playing an increasingly important role. The event provides a valuable opportunity for our members to demonstrate these technologies to a highly targeted audience. We are delighted to be supporting the exhibition and look forward to showcasing our members’ capabilities through the AMHSA Pavilion.”

A coming-of-age moment

Justin Craig commented:

“AMHSA have supported us from our very first event in Telford back in 2023, so it’s incredibly gratifying to see them continue that support as we enter our fourth year.

The move to the NEC and our inclusion within UK Logistics Week really marks a coming-of-age moment for Warehouse.& Yard. and having AMHSA alongside us for that journey means a great deal.”

Knowledge sharing and industry insight

In addition to hosting a pavilion, AMHSA will play an active role within the event’s conference programme, contributing to a series of expert Q&A panels focused on automation, robotics and the future of materials handling in modern warehouses.

These sessions will give visitors the opportunity to hear directly from automation specialists, explore the latest trends in warehouse technology and ask practical questions about implementing automated systems within their operations.
