Supporting the Italian network’s growth

On 6 October 2026, Janus International Europe announced that it had signed a partnership agreement with Boxengo Self Storage. The operator has facilities in the Milan and Rome areas and further locations in development. Janus says it will support the network’s continued expansion. [Janus International Europe]

According to the announcement, Boxengo’s facilities use Nokē Smart Entry. The system allows the operator to manage access centrally and tenants to open their storage units through an app. The announcement concerns a partnership, not an acquisition of the operator.

Technology as part of network expansion

For investors, this is an example of combining network expansion with a consistent approach to access management. When choosing technology, software integration, ongoing costs and procedures for handling outages are worth checking separately. The partnership alone is not evidence of improved profitability at the facilities.

The companies did not disclose the agreement’s value, duration or a timetable for new openings in the announcement. Nor did they provide data showing how the partnership could affect Boxengo’s costs or revenue.
