How it all started


Back in 1999, a Dutch salesman saw the inefficiencies of manual cargo checks and imagined a smarter way. That vision sparked CERTUS Automation—where advanced OCR technology meets real-world logistics. Today, CERTUS delivers mission-critical automation for Gate, Waterside, Yard, Stack, and Rail operations
