EcoPocket® combines garments on hangers (GOH) and flat folded goods (FFG) in one system. The loading of EcoPocket® takes place at different locations within the warehouse, compensating different picking speeds. The system forms buffers in order to carry out waves regardless of the picking progress. The buffer option can also be used for efficient integration of returned goods or fast-moving items in order to increase the efficiency of the fulfillment center. EcoPocket® sequences the individual bags in the system and directs them to the packing stations in the correct order.

After sorting, the goods are made available to the packing stations according to order and in the specified sequence. Monitors show additional information, such as the number of parts in the order, the type of packaging or even product photos of the parts to be packaged. Operators now remove the goods from the bags and pack them according to customer orders.
EcoPocket® also works together with the roll adapter. Hanging and flat goods in one system.
