Retail, Logistics & Warehousing

Optimising material handling processes is a key focus for many retail, logistics and warehouse companies.

Further fuelled by increasing demand and labour shortages, retailers are increasingly adopting electric tugs to improve safety and maximise operational efficiency. 

Optimising material handling efficiency from fulfilment to delivery

Adopted across the industry, electric tugs are eliminating manual handling and improving operational efficiency for retailers, third-party logistics providers (3PL) and warehouse operations across the globe.

Retail & Delivery

Making safe store deliveries a one-person job 

Electric tugs make city and town centre retail deliveries a one-person job – without compromising on safety. The movement of heavy roll cages no longer needs to be physically demanding on staff.

Delivering the safe and effortless movement of heavy roll cages, electric tugs empower a single operator to handle roll containers without the risk of injury, even on slopes and challenging environments.

Logistics & Warehousing

Transforming logistics operations to maximise efficiency

Rising e-commerce and consumer demand continue to add pressure to logistics providers and warehouses to maximise efficiency in replenishment and fulfilment processes.

Whether it’s the movement of nested roll cages, or the automated transfer of empty cages in replenishment lanes, electric tugs work alongside lifting equipment to help logistics providers maximise efficiency.

Trailer Movement

Efficient trailer movement for busy depots

Depots often rely on a combination of shunters, forklift trucks and lorry cabs to move empty trailers around the yard. Requiring licensed, trained drivers for short-distance movements leads to bottlenecks in the movement of trailers from bays to docks, driving many logistics providers to look for more efficient options. 

Our electric Trailer Moving System makes light work of unladen trailers weighing up to 20,000kg with zero emissions. Perfectly suited for congested depots and requiring no license to operate, they deliver maximum visibility and maximise efficiency.
