New Agreement with Holcim

HD Hyundai XiteSolution (HDX), the holding company for HD Hyundai Infracore and its Develon brand, in collaboration with Gravis Robotics AG, has signed an agreement with Holcim Inc., a global leader in innovative and sustainable building materials. The agreement outlines a strategic partnership for the development and commercialization of autonomous technology designed to enhance productivity and improve safety in quarry operations and confined material handling applications.

HDX and Gravis Robotics are collaborating and looking for opportunities to implement jointly developed autonomous technology using Develon’s equipment across different use cases within Holcim’s operations.

Using Automation to Drive Future Operations

Holcim’s material quarrying and processing sites combined with its operational expertise provides the consortium with an opportunity to integrate autonomous construction equipment.

Holcim is proud to pioneer autonomous technology in their operations, supporting its commitment to sustainable and innovative supply chains through collaboration with like-minded companies like HDX and Gravis Robotics.

Gravis Robotics, in cooperation with HDX, will develop this cutting-edge autonomous technology for construction equipment, and will work closely with Holcim to facilitate the necessary field support and ensure the successful deployment of the technology across its operations.

The ultimate goal of this initiative is to scale and integrate the autonomous technology into Holcim’s global operations at a volume that ensures commercial viability for all stakeholders.

By leveraging automation, HDX, Gravis and Holcim are driving the future of quarry operations, improving productivity while reducing environmental impact and operational risks.
