The answer isn’t pushing and pulling by hand

Maintaining production rates is paramount for manufacturers of chemicals and chemical-based products.

With high production rates, many chemical manufacturers rely on manual handling to maneuver loads such as mixers, powder containers and vessels – resulting in low productivity and increased risk to staff and equipment.

At the same time, equipment such as hoppers and vessels are often precariously moved using pallet trucks, reducing stability and increasing the risk of accidents.

Transferring raw materials without the risk of injury

Eliminating the need for manual handling and enabling production staff to focus on more productive tasks, electric tuggers help global manufacturers across the chemical industry balance safety and efficiency.

Compact yet powerful, a single operator can precisely move heavy equipment - reducing the risk of damage and maximizing safety. 

Benefits for chemical manufacturers

Electric tuggers are relied on to provide the safe, efficient movement of loads by manufacturers of powder coatings, industrial paints and more.

Your Questions, Answered - FAQs

What are electric tuggers used to move in the chemical industry? 

Electric tuggers are used by chemical manufacturers to improve safety and efficiency when moving loads such as: 

Mixing vessels
Powder containers
Hoppers
Storage bins and totes

The chemical industry covers a wide range of products, and so it’s no surprise that our electric tuggers are used by a diverse range of businesses across the industry.

From multinational painting and powder coating manufacturers to resins and solvents – our electric tuggers help chemical manufacturers move heavy loads safely and efficiently.

How are electric tuggers powered? 

Electric tuggers are battery-powered, with interchangeable batteries or lithium options available, electric tuggers can deliver 24/7 operation to keep your processes moving.

Offering zero emissions from the point of use, electric tuggers are ideally suited for indoor use, replacing internal combustion engine powered equipment such as forklifts or tow tractors. 

How do electric tuggers and electric tows connect?  

A range of coupling options is available across the range that maximizes performance, security and safety.

Custom coupling solutions can also be designed for unique applications.
