As an important part of Posten Norge’s strategy, the leading logistics company dedicated the
first half of 2020 exploring the new technology and understanding the demand from e-retailers
and end-users as the parcel volume increases. Following a tender, the SwipBox Infinity solution
was chosen, and SwipBox smart parcel lockers will soon be made available for all Norwegians.
Per Öhagen, executive vice president, Posten Norge said: “We are pleased that many strong
players from the industry wanted to participate in our tender process. We evaluated many
creative, high quality solutions but in the end, we decided to go with SwipBox. Their solution
provided the best match for our requirements with regards to customer convenience, quality,
serviceability and cost. We are looking forward to an innovative cooperation with SwipBox.
Together we will be creating a unique network of app operated parcel lockers across Norway.”
The parcel lockers will be branded “Pakkeboks” (parcel locker) and will be operated through a
bespoke app on the customer’s smart phone, which communicates with the SwipBox Infinity
parcel locker via Bluetooth. The parcel lockers are battery operated and very easily installed as
they do not require an external power source or Internet connection.
Jens Rom, CEO, SwipBox said: “We are very proud that Posten Norge, one of the world’s most
innovative postal operators, decided to go with the SwipBox Infinity solution. The people of Oslo
already like the parcel lockers, so we’ll be looking forward to rolling out the solution to the
whole of Norway, helping Posten Norge to add further services and customer convenience.”
The SwipBox Infinity solution has been rolled out in Denmark and now Norway. The solution is
presently being piloted in other parts of Europe.
