Furniturebox, established by Monty and Dan in 2015 at the age of 17, operated from their old warehouse at Mere in Wiltshire, until Saturday, the 17th of September, when they officially opened a new facility in Chippenham. In recent years, Furniturebox has seen a rise in ecommerce, indirect sales, and 3PL opportunities, resulting in the need to expand into their new warehouse.
UniCarriers has advanced its low lifter offering with the introduction of a new line of compact pedestrian trucks. Packed with innovative features, UniCarriers low lifters help operators work faster and safer. These robust and reliable trucks are ideal for replenishing goods on a shop floor, transporting items over short distances in the warehouse, or order picking.
UniCarriers has won the Materials Handling Equipment Provider of the Year Award at the recent TCS&D Awards 2022.
UniCarriers has extended its product line with the addition of 16 new pedestrian stacker trucks. Available in models ranging from 1 to 1.6 tonnes, the MSF and MSW stackers excel at picking, loading, unloading, shuttling and stacking up to 5.4 metres.
UniCarriers has launched an upgraded series of compact pedestrian stackers with state-of-the-art features designed to enhance operator comfort and productivity. As the latest innovations in the world-class UniCarriers portfolio of market-leading stackers, the CSW125 compact pedestrian stacker and CDW125 compact pedestrian stacker for double pallet handling are ideally suited to cross-docking applications.
UniCarriers has launched a new generation of the ALR stand-in low lifter, now offering enhanced features in line with the highest standards of technology, quality and ergonomics. Available in 2 and 3-tonne capacities, the ALR is ideally suited to heavy-duty operations such as internal transportation and cross docking applications.
With the MXS3 and MXS4, UniCarriers are expanding their successful MX series of electric counterbalanced trucks with new models that set benchmarks in agility, performance and intelligence. All the new models are characterised by their compact and robust design, excellent manoeuvrability and intelligent control systems. This makes them ideal for dynamic handling tasks in demanding, confined environments.
UniCarriers today announce the launch of their new MXL heavy-duty (4.0 - 5.5 ton) 4-wheel electric counterbalance truck, the first vehicle of its kind in the UniCarriers range: an electric forklift that’s built for the challenges of moving heavy loads in a modern freight environment. It offers its users the chance to go fully emission-free, and it’s every bit as tough, as fast and as powerful as any truck with a combustion engine. But more than that, it has unique ergonomics and comes with a lower total cost of operation than IC solutions.
Mitsubishi Logisnext Europe (MLE), member of the global Mitsubishi Logisnext Group, accelerates the optimisation of its material handling and logistics solution offers through further group integration in Europe.
Forklift operators have a challenging role, and without their talent, skill and professionalism, the sector couldn’t continue to operate. That is why in 2020 Talent in Logistics and the international industrial truck manufacturer UniCarriers will once again search for the ‘Forklift Operator of the Year’. For the first time, Talent in Logistics and UniCarriers will hit the road, as they set to host a month full of competitions and roadshows – visiting in the North, South and Midlands.
