Our Trolleys

We offer a gas cylinder trolley which can be used in both industrial as well as medical settings and laboratories. When using our trolley, operators can safely transport gas canisters, exerting a maximum of 15kg of force when tilting the canister, before securing it with the included chain and pushing it along effortlessly. Our drum trolley allows for the transport of up to 300kg containers, without having to load them on to a foot plate beforehand. In this case, workers will imput a maximum of 20kg of force when loading, before being able to push it with minimum effort. The trolley catch can secure drums from 50 to 200 gallons at different heights.

Our Cabinets

All of our cabinets are built in accordance with Australian Standards to ensure the safe storage of flammable liquids and waste. These are some of the features you can expect:

• Acid and Alkaline resistant. powdered coat paint finish
• Fail-Safe locking mechanism
• Adjustable leveling feet for placement in uneven surfaces
• Corrugated shelves to contain spills
• 150mm sump to contain larger leaks
• Thermally insulated walls.

Our Depalletisers

Even unloading from pallets can be time consuming and possibly dangerous if done by hand. Our depalletisers can make the process quick, safe and effortless as they allow for the tranfer of pallets from the side and from corners by a single worke, saving time and reducing labour costs.

Our Cradles

Rotating a drum sideways and back, wether it be for storage, decanting or rolling can easily result in dents and spills because of the dramatic shifting of the liquids within. Our cradles allow a single worker to easily rotate and turn drums by applying 15 to 25 kilograms of force, depending on the model.
