Impact Handling, the leading material handling specialist and UK distributor for CAT® Lift Trucks, explores the key challenges facing food and drink processing operations as they transition to electric power

One of the UK’s leading premium materials handling equipment providers, Impact Handling, an Aprolis UK company, is celebrating its 40th anniversary in business. Impact Handling’s journey began in 1985, growing from a regional supplier in the Northeast.

Although better known for the durability and performance of its counterbalanced machines, Cat® Lift Trucks has a long and impressive history of delivering pioneering warehouse handling solutions. Exclusively distributed in the UK and Ireland by Impact Handling.

In one sense buying a lift truck, or any other kind of material handling equipment (MHE), has never been easier. Indeed, with the help of Google a new machine could be on its way to you in just a few clicks.

Impact Handling has reinforced its commitment to the heavy lift truck market with a large investment in new Konecranes stock. It means customers will enjoy much faster access to these premium machines and their impressive capabilities.

Impact Handling is expanding its Heavy Truck Service Division with the addition of 5 more high-spec Mercedes Sprinter vans for the servicing of Konecranes and other large lift trucks.

Are you open-minded when it comes to replacing your warehouse equipment? Impact Handling and Cat® Lift Trucks can offer you radically different products with game-changing effects on your profitability.

Impact Handling is ready to solve any reach truck challenge, thanks to an expanded and upgraded line-up from Cat® Lift Trucks. The last two years have seen 11 extra models added – followed more recently by a fine-tuning programme for the existing reach trucks.

Leading UK materials handling supplier Impact is stepping up its support for warehouse operations, thanks to non-stop product development at Cat® Lift Trucks. The rate at which new Cat® products, innovations and upgrades are being introduced is outstanding.
