Balyo SA designs, develops, and markets advanced material handling robots worldwide, specializing in autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).

Its product lineup includes robotic pallet trucks, reach trucks capable of 11m lift heights, stackers, counterbalanced stackers, tuggers with up to 7000kg pulling capacity, and turret trucks for very narrow aisles, supporting applications like pallet detection, barcode scanning, inter-building transport, ERP integration, and warehouse management systems. Balyo SA serves key industries such as 3PL logistics, automotive, e-commerce, consumer goods, food manufacturing, and packaging, enabling cost reductions, enhanced safety, and higher storage density without layout changes. With around 193 employees, global offices in Europe, the US, and Asia, and over 1000 robots deployed, Balyo SA operates as a subsidiary of SVF II Strategic Investments AIV LLC, playing a pivotal role in warehouse automation and sustainable logistics innovation.
