It’s time to look at manual handling in facilities management

Across facilities management, a wide range of tasks, processes and applications rely on manual handling. From dumpster moving in residential and property management, moving items like laundry, or transporting clinical waste in healthcare settings, this often happens by hand. 

The manual handling of heavy loads puts staff at risk of strains and injuries – particularly where loads need to be moved on slopes – and increases the risk of accidents and damage.

Improve staff safety and boost productivity

Enabling a single operator to safely move heavy loads, electric tuggers help facilities management providers to improve workplace safety, eliminate manual handling, and to work more efficiently.

Offering a safer alternative to manual handling, electric tuggers deliver the controlled movement of loads inside, outside and on slopes - reducing the risk of injury and boosting productivity.
