Giving the gift of Christmas
11th December, 2020 | by materialshandlingMaterials Handling has supported Greenslopes Private Hospital and St Vincent de Paul by donating gift cards as part of the charity’s Christmas Appeal.
By donating to this cause, over 50 families in the Mount Gravatt, Annerley and Holland Park areas will be able to experience the true spirit of this festival season.
A tradition at the hospital for the past 22-years, our loyal partnership has allowed them to continue their work especially during a year that has brought hardship and grief to many. Millions of Australian families spend Christmas in poverty. National President of St Vincent de Paul Society, Claire Victory, spoke about how this year has been particularly tough for Australians due to the pandemic.
“Job losses, business closures and reduced working hours have placed many communities under an increased financial strain,” Ms Victory said.
“The Federal Government has reduced the Coronavirus supplement and it will drop again early next year, plunging many more people into poverty, and other supports such as the moratorium on evictions are also being lifted in some states. Even without border closures and travel restrictions, many people in our community find Christmas to be a particularly lonely time of year due to social isolation.”

Every year, Materials Handling and Australian communities assist the St Vinnies Christmas Appeal by donating to those who have fallen on hard times. Ms Victory said COVID-19 has made it harder for St Vinnies to meet the needs of the people it serves, especially with restrictions and social distancing requirements.
“Belts have tightened around the nation, and our committed volunteers have been prevented from helping because of COVID risks. During the lockdown, many Vinnies shops across Australia had to close or reduce their operations, reducing our ability to generate funds to distribute to people in need,” said Ms Victory.
“This year’s campaign has been launched at the end of a year many would rather forget. But with your help, we will be able to make this festive season that little bit brighter for people in our community who are doing it particularly tough.”
The St Vincent de Paul Society in Australia has over 60,000 members and volunteers who operate in over 1,000 groups located in local communities across the country. With the assistance of Greenslopes Private Hospital, the gift cards donated by Materials Handling will allow families to purchase essential items and food. Donations can help provide families with comfort and security this Christmas.

Donating to the 2019 St Vinnie’s Christmas Appeal
13th December, 2019 | by materialshandlingEvery year, Materials Handling proudly donates to the St Vinnie’s Christmas Appeal and, in 2019, this tradition was once more upheld.
A range of scooters and helmets were gifted to Greenslopes Private Hospital division, who will, in turn, give the toys to a number of boys and girls aged 13-years-old and under. Cementing the fundamental principles of giving and happiness this festive season, these donations will ensure children don’t go without on Christmas morning.
The St Vincent de Paul Society and their Christmas Appeal actively targets poverty and inequality. The confronting truth is that one in six Australian children live in poverty, with one in five not having enough to eat. The Christmas Appeal ensures that the kindness and generosity of contributors provide essential assistance to families, including supplying food, housing support, financial help and a special little something under the tree.
Last year, the St Vincent de Paul Society delivered around 350 hampers to families in need across the Northern Territory alone. CEO of St Vincent de Paul Society NSW, Jack de Groot, said one of the biggest issues families face is hunger due to ongoing drought, energy costs, high rents and inadequate support payments.
“For thousands of families, Christmas isn’t a time of celebration but of hunger, hardship and stress,” he said. “That’s why we hold our annual Christmas Appeal to support people doing it tough…Thanks to the community’s generosity, we’ll be helping thousands of families struggling with poverty to put a special meal on the table for Christmas.”
Matthew delivers 8 scooters and helmets to Greenslopes Private Hospital for the St Vinnies Christmas Appeal.
Every little bit counts and goes towards a family in need at a special time for most Australians. The true spirit of Christmas is found in giving to those less fortunate in the community and St Vinnies provides not only toys to children but food vouchers, hampers, clothing, support with bills, crisis accommodation and other services.
Materials Handling is proud to do its share for those in need. After all, a Christmas without joy is no Christmas at all.

A New Way of Thinking for Vacuum Handling Devices
29th March, 2018 | by materialshandlingToo often, organisations have been relying on expensive solutions to assist their lifting and handling requirements. As Workplace Health and Safety becomes a driving force in many environments, it is vital that processes are introduced to remove risks associated with manual handling tasks.
Vacuum Handling Devices and Lifters have become a widely adopted technology and their value-adding benefits are sweeping through many industries. An ergonomic and efficient method of lifting, these devices ensure that processes are streamlined and lead times are shortened. They offer a powerful alternative to manual handling tasks.
Technology, as we’ve grown to know it, is changing rapidly. New innovations are improving the worker’s control over a vacuum handling system and increasing savings with added benefits. This new type of lifting solution is emerging with the intent to change the current mindset for the better and ensure vacuum lifting processes are even easier and more reliable.
Introducing Barbaric uniWood – Vacuum Handling Devices with a difference!
Unlike conventional vacuum tube lifters, Barbaric uniWood Vacuum Handling Systems feature a new and futuristic design, with cutting-edge technology for lifting applications. Not only do these devices meet Australian Standards (AS1418 and AS4991) but they exceed expectations and have been adopted worldwide. Their compact design and lightweight construction ensures an operator has full control during all handling processes – a feature that’s been improved significantly in this modular system.
Traditional vacuum tube lifters require constant supply of electricity to operate the vacuum blower. That means, when the vacuum handling device is not in use, it is still consuming considerable power! Alternatively, as an energy-smart solution, Barbaric lifters only draw power when the device is in use. This change has improved the overall return on investment for these types of vacuum handling systems. With Barbaric, only a fraction of the power is required. Less power means less energy consumption and lower electricity bills!
With safety at the forefront of the design, Barbaric uniWood are a complete handling system with enhanced features and a vast range of capabilities. Featuring a variable lift speed, operators have excellent control of the work piece at all times, thus guaranteeing satisfaction and improving productivity. Traditional hoists feature two-speed lift function and the difference between each mode can cause damage to products or equipment (because of jerky system reactions). With Barbaric uniWood, a worker can confidently control the speed and the system remains smooth, quiet and responsive.
Another unique advantage, and possibly the highlight of the Barbaric design, is its ability to lift, tilt and rotate the work piece. This functionality is near impossible on other vacuum lifting systems and very expensive – especially when trying to lift and then tilt a board off a machine bed to place in a vertical rack or A-Frame. Such a task would be cumbersome and difficult on customary systems. Barbaric lifters are specifically designed to fit the most common processes within any wood production facility.
To highlight how these systems are changing workplaces every day, take a look at the B3 uniWood in comparison to a vacuum tube lifter. For a business looking to improve their handling processes, instead of opting for the old style vacuum system, the uniWood offers an alternative quiet, economical and safe solution. It costs less than a traditional system, product quality is still maintained and loose woodwork dust is not spread around the workshop due to an overload of exhaust air. Alternatively, other options are available to handle smaller tasks, like the B1 uniWood Mini. This device has been designed specifically for handling work pieces in/out of the edge band machine. Barbaric uniWood Lifters continue to optimise workflow in a practical and cost-effective way.
The uniWood lifting range is an easy solution that offers state-of the art technology, innovative safety features and smooth operation. Barbaric is changing the industry as we know it. With a range of dynamic glass and panel handling solutions on offer, these systems are introducing a new way of thinking, especially in terms of lifting. They are out-performing other conventional systems we’ve grown comfortable with.
