Manual handling in the retail industry
Roll cages are a core aspect of material handling in the retail industry, enabling goods to be transported to stores as required. The movement of loads throughout the retail supply chain is often carried out manually. Moving heavy loads by hand increases the risk of injury and lowers productivity.
Within retail delivery, manually moving cages in delivery lorries presents the risk of strains and hand trapping, while city centre deliveries often require multiple members of staff to handle heavy cages over long distances and slopes.
Create safer working environments with manual handling solutions
Eliminating manual handling, electric tugs take the strain off operators when moving heavy-wheeled loads, maximising workplace safety.
With an easy-to-use design, a single operator can move heavy loads with complete confidence, even on slopes. Choose electric tugs to reduce the risk of injury and boost staff productivity in your retail operations...
