Things to consider
With years of experience supporting modular building manufacturers, we understand the unique challenges and requirements of the industry.
When choosing a material handling solution like an electric tug, consider the following:
- Flowline production – you need a solution that can be used to create efficient flowline production processes to drive efficiency.
- Weight capacity – make sure you choose a solution that can handle the increasing weight of modular building assemblies.
- Indoor & outdoor capabilities – choose a solution that can reliably move pre-fabricated assemblies both on the shopfloor and between buildings.
- Control modes – moving large loads in offsite construction can be difficult. Remote control systems provide added safety and better visibility.

Your Questions, Answered - FAQs
Yes, our electric tugs can operate both indoors and outdoors. Whether it’s in moving assemblies along the production line or in facilitating building-to-building movements, electric tugs can safely move heavy loads, inside and outside.
No, unlike lifting equipment such as forklift trucks and cranes, an electric tug does not require a license to operate. A license-free operation reduces downtime and maximises operational efficiency, reducing wasted time waiting for a licensed driver.    
Minimal training is required to safely operate an electric tug and we offer training packages to suit every requirement.  
Electric tugs are battery powered, with interchangeable batteries or lithium options available, electric tugs can deliver 24/7 operation to keep your processes moving.
Offering zero emissions from the point of use, electric tugs are ideally suited for indoor use, replacing internal combustion engine (ICE) powered equipment such as forklifts or tow tractors.
A range of coupling options are available across the range that maximise performance, security and safety.
Custom coupling solutions can also be designed for unique applications.
