Best Materials Handling Equipment 2022
5th September, 2022 | by support.gocreative
What is material handling equipment?
Material handling equipment is an umbrella term to include a variety of different machinery, tools and other systems for the purpose of moving, storing, controlling or protecting different materials. Whether you’re handling product and stock, or moving goods and machinery around your worksite, material handling solutions are essential.
Ensuring safety
Safe working practices and environments are undeniably a top priority. By implementing and using robust solutions for handling materials and equipment designed to ensure safe operation, you can rest easy knowing your team (and your assets) are safe.
Productivity in operations
Material handling equipment is also very important to ensure the seamless operations of your business. The easier and more efficient your team is at handling materials of all types, the greater the improvement in overall productivity.
Maximise space
Space is often at a premium in workshops, factories and warehouses. With the right materials handling solutions you can make the most of every square inch of your space in a safe and efficient manner. Keeping the assets and goods of your worksite organised and ordered will also ensure greater accessibility and increase worker satisfaction.
What are the different types of material handling equipment?
Trailers and trucks
While trailers and trucks are more often than not thought of as vehicles (and they are), they’re also integral types of material handling equipment. Having the right trucks and compatible trailers will ensure you can easily load and transport the goods, products and stock you need.
Storage and handling equipment
Having the right equipment for both handling and safely storing your materials is essential for smooth operations and increased productivity. From bins, containers and benches to lockers, cabinets and pallet racking, storage equipment comes in a variety of models and types. Similarly, there’s a wide range of handling equipment for different sized, shaped and styled materials.
Materials and roll handling
If you work with large rolls of material, think tissue, fibreglass, cables or paper, then a roll handling solution is a must. There are a number of options when it comes to materials handling systems for rolls as well, so every type of roll and material can be catered for.
Best materials handling equipment

1. Pallet Handling
For companies using and working with pallets there’s simply no getting around investing in good pallet handling equipment. The right equipment will keep your goods undamaged, your workers uninjured and your operations uninterrupted.

2. Container/truck loading
Having a truck or trailer is one thing, but loading your bulk goods onto it or into it is quite another. Make sure to check out our conveyors for both loading and unloading containers and trucks for easy and safe use.
3. Castors and wheels
Mobility and ‘moveability’ is often important in a workspace that demands flexibility. Castor and wheel solutions can be a simple and affordable solution that won’t impact your material handling ability in a negative way.

4. Ergonomic lift devices
Ergonomic lift devices allow for effective handling of materials and equipment in a sustainable way that won’t put the wellbeing or health of your team at risk. Depending on the particular application of your device, there’s a wide range of ergonomic lift device options, such as the Arm Lift and Tilt Device.
5. Forklift attachments
Forklifts are part and parcel of many warehouses and factories. By the same token, having the right forklift attachments and accessory products, like a forklift jack, is an important component of any materials handling solution.

6. Hydraulic equipment
Hydraulic equipment such as the platform stacker, which uses liquid and pressure to lift large or heavy objects, can be a practical solution for a wide variety of work spaces.

7. Material lifters
Lifting and moving materials safely is extraordinarily important. Materials Handling’s counterbalanced materials lifter, for example, is an ergonomic and industry-complaint solution for lifting all types of goods and products.

8. Reel & roll handling
As outlined above in more detail, reel and roll material handling equipment will ensure your workflow is uninterrupted and as seamless as possible.

9. Trailers
Trailers come in all sizes and styles to suit the particular needs you might have. Whether you’re after a solution for moving heavy goods or a simple trailer for moving small parts, there’s a ton of options available.

10. Weighing equipment
If your workshop or worksite needs reliable weighing equipment with durability and heavy duty features as well, make sure to check out our waterproof check weighing scales.
11. Sweepers equipment
Sweepers equipment may not seem like an example of a materials handling solution but these fantastic portable and flexible cleaning equipment can be game-changing for many applications.

12. Truck & cranes
You don’t get bigger materials handling solutions than trucks and cranes. Of course, there’s still plenty of scope to find the particular size and type for your needs.

It ergonomically improves a worksite and processes by easily carrying and moving loads of up to 500 kg. With a flexible jib arm, this portable lifting tool enables free movement.

JibFlex is a very flexible lifting tool due to its versatility given by its unique design. It truly removes the strain from your personnel. When lifting, conventional rules indicate that workers lift no more than 20 kg, but with the JibFlex, they can move up to 25x that amount. This makes it an essential component in a safe and healthy workplace.
