Do your homework
August 1st 2009 John Meale, MD of
Thorworld Industries, says
spending time to choose
well designed and
manufactured loading bay
and materials handling
equipment can make the
goods in/out process more
efficient, more cost-effective
and even safer.
He advises talking to wellknown
and established
suppliers with experienced
sales engineers who can
recommend products which
fully meet specific
requirements – both short
and longer-term. It
is also useful to talk
to existing users of
any equipment
recommended,
perhaps visiting
sites to see it in use.
Meale goes on to
suggest that it is
worth considering a
single-source
supplier, such as Thorworld,
which can provide for all
your main loading and
unloading equipment
requirements, together with
the necessary accessories –
particularly if they have the
relevant experience and a
proven track record in the
sector.
Ensure all equipment is
produced under strict quality
controls that meet the
highest European health
and safety standards. More articles from Thorworld Industries: |
