The Altline network connecting a fulfillment module to apartments inside a building

Delivery in seconds — without disposable packaging

One apple — under one minute

From order to apartment — without a courier at the door, waiting or a disposable box.

Selecting an item in the Altline app

Deliver

The capsule moves automatically through a dedicated pipe network inside the building.

A resident receives the capsule from the apartment module

Receive

The order arrives in the apartment module and the empty capsule returns to the system.

Delivery becomes part of the building

A fulfillment module sits in or next to the building. A dedicated automated network connects it to apartments — just like the building’s other utilities.

Reusable Altline capsule carrying an apple

Reusable by default

After delivery, the capsule returns to the Altline module, is cleaned and used again. Residents never need to store or return the container themselves.

Our goal is to reduce packaging waste fivefold in Altline-enabled buildings within ten years.

Altline essentials

Where do the goods come from?

Goods are stored and assembled in an Altline fulfillment module located inside or next to the building.

How fast does an order arrive?

An order travels from the fulfillment module directly to the apartment module in under a minute.

How does the system reduce disposable packaging?

Goods travel in a reusable capsule. After delivery, the empty capsule automatically returns to the system, is cleaned and used again.

Which buildings can use Altline?

Altline is designed for residential developments, hotels, campuses and office buildings. Each configuration depends on the project and its infrastructure.
