Working with a major
UK lift supplier, it designed a modular dock pod loading system
incorporating a scissor lift to handle the fixed deck trailers.
The
free-standing pods are installed flush to the outside of the
distribution centres, minimising disruption and avoiding the loss of
internal floor area. The fabricated side and roof frames are clad with
insulated wall panels to create a sealed working environment.
Easilift
Loading Systems’ electrically-operated sectional overhead Powerdoors
are fitted to the front and rear of each pod. It also supplied double
deck rubber bumpers, an inflatable dock shelter, traffic lights, two
sets of dock lights and fluorescent pod lights with each installation.
The
company was one of the first loading bay equipment suppliers to achieve
the prestigious SafeContractor Health and Safety award. SafeContractor
is an accreditation scheme that assesses the health and safety
competency of contractors in a variety of fields.
To achieve
accreditation Easilift’s health and safety standards are independently
audited annually to ensure they have achieved the high standard
required by SafeContractor, including complying with any new
legislation.
In August 2005 the Kirkburton, Huddersfield-based
company was recognised for its success in landing a string of major
contracts. It received the Kirklees Business of the Month Award for
supplying its equipment to, amongst others, Housing Units Ltd., the
Port of Tyne, Corby Chilled Distribution and Cadbury Trebor Bassett.
Other
recent projects have included the supply of loading bay equipment for
two state-of-the-art, architect-designed warehouses at Trafford Park
Industrial Estate, Manchester, fitting out 27 loading bays at the
Instore national distribution centre, Trident Business Park,
Huddersfield, and the installation of 23 loading bays with special
galvanised dock levellers for Arla Foods Stourton dairy.
Said
Mr Dinning: “We intend to maintain and further develop the company’s
clear focus as one of the UK’s leading loading bay equipment companies.
This will be achieved by the constant development of cost-effective,
quality solutions to help boost our customers’ productivity, safety
and profitability.”
