Uni-Flex Conveyor Range
For increased efficiency in loose loading and unloading of vehicles
Increased efficiency in loose loading and unloading of vehicles
As one of the leading suppliers of conveyor modules with proven build quality and reliability, we are proud to present a range of expandable, flexible and durable conveyors for loose loading and unloading applications. Loose loading eliminates ‘dead space’ created by pallets or roll-cages. Engineered to the highest standards to endure the rigorous demands of despatch areas, distribution centres and parcel handling hubs around the world, our flexible conveyors provide cost effective handling solutions – not only for the large distribution centres but also for smaller companies requiring only single units.
We have also gained a reputation for supplying high quality competitively priced rollers and spares to all aspects of the material handling industry.
Our products are used by blue-chip companies in the UK and throughout Europe and are solely manufactured in the UK.
