What is a material handling device?

A handling device is usually a motorized or hydraulic device that allows the movement, hooking, and lifting of loads. This equipment can be in the form of a pallet truck, hand truck, stacker, or material lifters. These devices are very often used on industrial sites or logistics platforms to move and lift loads.

What is the particularity of a handling device suitable for construction sites?

Unlike industrial sites and logistics platforms, construction sites are very often hilly places, so handling equipment specially designed for this type of environment should be used: construction site handling equipment.

In this sense, these handling devices have some particularities:

Have a physiognomy that allows them to be easily moved on site: additional wheels, folding arms, etc.

Have all-terrain wheels and tires.

Why use a handling device on a construction site?

Construction or demolition sites are spaces that require the handling of heavy and bulky equipment and materials. Handling devices are therefore perfectly suited to this type of mission in order to transport, load, and lift loads easily and safely. In addition, handling equipment will be ideal for small jobs to move medium loads in tight spaces and difficult to access where large construction machinery would not pass.
