THG Fulfil has announced it will install 430 state-of-the-art T-sorting robots from Libiao Robotics at its warehouse in Manchester in the UK in a bid to increase operational capacity by 75%.

The T-sorting robots are set to be operational in September 2025 and will enable THG Fulfil to handle around one million units per day, bolstering its operations ahead of this year’s peak season.

According to Libiao, its robots have a sorting accuracy of up to 99.9% and its system is engineered to sort for multiple destinations simultaneously, with electroplating robots operating on optimal paths to maximize sorting efficiency.

Tom Killeen, COO, THG Ingenuity which owns THG Fulfil, said, “We have always believed that fulfilment is a core driver of customer excellence and brand reputation. Our collaboration with Libiao further solidifies our commitment to providing brands and retailers with industry-leading, scalable automation solutions that optimize everything from pick and pack to final-mile delivery, ultimately enhancing customer experience and driving loyalty.”

Jason Zhang, VP of sales – Europe, Libiao, added, “We’re excited to partner with THG Fulfil, showcasing the elegance and scalability of Libiao Robotics’ solutions. Our compact, modular robots enable rapid plug-and-play deployment. With THG Fulfil as our UK distribution partner – leveraging their vast retail network and warehouse automation expertise – we look forward to expanding Libiao’s reach across new industries.”
