Glass Industry

The glass industry places particularly high demands on internal transport. Whether it is large sheets of glass, panes, glass constructions or packaged glassware: the material is fragile, often heavy and difficult to maneuver. For safe, damage-free and efficient transport specialized forklifts, side loaders and tools essential.

With our solutions, you are assured of maximum product safety and optimal logistics performance.

Specific challenges in the glass industry

When transporting glass internally, you encounter unique challenges:

• Vulnerable cargo - glass requires careful and low-vibration handling
• Long or tall dimensions - large plates are difficult to transport with standard trucks
• High weight - especially with composite packages of glass or large windows
• Confined spaces - narrow aisles and compact production locations
• Safety and ergonomics - reduce risks to employees

With standard lift trucks, much of this work cannot be done efficiently or safely. Therefore, custom solutions are often necessary.
