Consumer product giant Sara Lee has taken delivery of a Robur SBCC compact counterbalanced stacker from Newbury Fork Trucks and Stanley Handling for its UK headquarters in Slough.
Traditionally, full pallets had been moved about the despatch area by hand pallet truck and this had resulted in occasional back problems among staff.

With powered lift and drive, a 600kg load capacity, electronic speed control, dual lowering system and a chassis length of only 960mm the SBCC met the requirement of the job. Fitted with optional power steering, the it has provided the manoeuvrability, stacking and safety of a forklift at a low cost.
