Handling Equipment FAQs
HUBTEX provides a comprehensive range of specialised handling equipment designed for industries that regularly move long, heavy or bulky materials. This includes sideloaders, multidirectional forklifts, narrow aisle vehicles, order picking systems and other customised material handling equipment built to suit specific operational needs. Rather than offering generic solutions, HUBTEX focuses on application-driven equipment that improves safety, maximises storage space and supports efficient workflows. These solutions are widely used across manufacturing, logistics, aviation, timber and metals industries where precision handling and reliability are essential.
A sideloader forklift allows loads to be lifted and transported sideways, making it ideal for handling long items such as timber packs, pipes, panels or steel profiles. This sideways configuration means operators can navigate narrow aisles more easily compared with conventional forklifts, which typically require wider turning space. HUBTEX sideloaders are engineered to provide stability, precision control and improved visibility, helping reduce product damage while increasing storage density. For many businesses, this results in better space utilisation, smoother workflows and lower overall handling costs.
HUBTEX material handling solutions are particularly valuable for industries that manage oversized, long or awkward loads as part of daily operations. This includes timber and building materials, steel and metals distribution, plastics manufacturing, logistics, aviation support and general industrial warehousing. These sectors often require specialised equipment that can operate safely in restricted spaces while maintaining high productivity levels. HUBTEX solutions help organisations optimise material flow, improve workplace safety and increase operational efficiency across a wide range of demanding environments.
A sideloader forklift is specifically designed to carry loads parallel to the vehicle rather than in front, which significantly improves handling of long or bulky materials. This configuration allows operators to move items such as timber, steel beams or panels through narrow aisles without excessive manoeuvring. HUBTEX sideloader forklifts also incorporate advanced steering, stability and control features that support precise positioning and safer handling. Compared with traditional forklifts, this often leads to improved productivity, reduced damage risk and better use of available storage space.
HUBTEX has built a strong reputation in materials handling Australia by delivering specialist solutions backed by global engineering expertise and local industry knowledge. The focus is on providing equipment that is tailored to specific operational challenges rather than standardised machinery. This approach helps customers achieve better performance, improved safety and more efficient use of warehouse space. With ongoing service support, consultation and access to advanced technology, HUBTEX provides long term value for businesses seeking reliable material handling equipment.
