Hyundai Glovis Partners with Lab021 to Deploy ‘Vessellink'
Driving Digital Transformation in Maritime Carbon Management TOKYO, July 17, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hyundai Glovis, a global leader in smart logistics, has entered a strategic partnership with maritime IT solutions provider Lab021 to implement Vessellink, an advanced digital reporting system designed for ship operations. The collaboration aims to integrate Vessellink for Ship, Lab021's flagship platform, into Hyundai Glovis's maritime operations. This system automates data collection, analysis, and reporting of critical vessel metrics such as real-time voyage monitoring, carbon emissions, and operational efficiency. By digitizing these processes, Hyundai Glovis seeks to enhance operational intelligence and agility while reducing reliance on manual reporting. This initiative is timely as the maritime industry faces increasing regulatory demands on decarbonization. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is advancing measures targeting greenhouse gas reduction, including stricter carbon intensity standards and the introduction of a global carbon pricing mechanism expected around 2027. In parallel, the European Union's FuelEU Maritime regulation, effective in 2025, requires vessels calling at EU ports to progressively increase the use of low-carbon fuels. Additionally, the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) extended its scope to include shipping in 2024 and plans full emissions coverage by 2026. By adopting Vessellink, Hyundai Glovis positions itself ahead of these regulatory requirements, strengthening its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments. The platform's detailed emissions tracking and real-time reporting improve transparency and build trust with global customers and regulators. A Hyundai Glovis spokesperson commented, "We are upgrading our data management to align with the maritime sector's goals for decarbonization and digital innovation. Vessellink enables compliance and streamlines our operations. We look forward to expanding our partnership with Lab021 to develop smarter, greener shipping solutions." Lab021 CEO Sangbong Lee added, "Vessellink represents the future of maritime digitalization, merging precise vessel data with intelligent automation. Our partnership with Hyundai Glovis marks a key step in expanding global adoption of data-driven carbon management tools in shipping." This collaboration highlights Hyundai Glovis's commitment to future-proofing its maritime activities and reflects the broader industry trend where digital transformation is essential for sustainable shipping.

Hyundai Glovis cuts inventory time 90% with drones
Hyundai Glovis, the logistics affiliate of Hyundai Motor Group, announced Monday that it has reduced inventory inspection time by 90 percent through the application of drone technology at the group's plant in Georgia. The company deployed two drones to the consolidation center at Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America in the first half of 2025 to monitor inventories of unassembled parts. According to Hyundai Glovis, each inventory check now takes an average of 30 minutes in the facility, a reduction from the previous 300 minutes required when the process was carried out manually. 'Using fisheye cameras, the drones extract specific features such as angles and surface patterns. An accelerometer and a gyroscope -- which track the drone's motion and orientation -- help detect the location of the product, while stereo cameras determine its height,' a Hyundai Glovis official explained. 'By integrating these various technologies, we have enabled smoother inventory management.' The drone autonomously flies inside the consolidation center, capturing images and location data in a predetermined sequence, and sends the analyzed results to the logistics management system. Battery management and replacement are also handled automatically at the drone's base station without human intervention. Hyundai Glovis said the drones rely on cameras and vision technology instead of GPS, ensuring accurate movement within the consolidation center and other indoor facilities. The company plans to deploy additional drones at the Georgia plant and expand the system to other logistics centers within the group. Glovis also plans to further advance its drone technology as part of building smart plants for improved efficiency. This aligns with Hyundai Motor Group's broader efforts to introduce robots for simple but hazardous tasks in its automobile manufacturing processes. The group is currently deploying automated guided vehicles developed by Hyundai Wia for logistics at the Georgia plant and plans to add Boston Dynamics' humanoid robot Atlas by the end of this year. 'As a proactive response to the fast-changing logistics industry environment, we will continue to secure new technologies,' the official added.
