Five trucks in one step to safety
December 1st 2005

Winner of two awards for innovation in safety handling, PowerMate from Stanley Handling is said to provide one simple step to safe, fast and professional deliveries for many companies throughout industry.

Suited to both deliveries and on and off site handling, PowerMate is effectively a ‘fivetrucks- in-one’ safety handler – combining a powered stairclimber, vehicle on/off loader, general transporter, dock leveller and desk/worktop positioner.

Compact enough to travel on-board vehicle, PowerMate can move a wide variety of heavy and awkward loads up to 570kg on and off vehicles, up and down stairs, along narrow corridors and around tight landings – often with difficult access – to their final position.

By avoiding the dangers often inherent in using traditional sack trucks or other methods, PowerMate makes a major contribution to the health and safety of employees manoeuvring bulky loads. And although health and safety is a prime consideration, this product makes sound financial sense too, says the company.

One-man operation also means more cost-effective deliveries, whilst the unit’s reliability ensures that goods arrive in perfect condition.

The speed and efficiency of delivery using PowerMate means the operator can achieve more in a day than one using traditional methods, and also avoid fatigue and time away from work due to back injuries.
