Safety accolade

Transdek UK was announced Specialist Winner of the Automation category in the inaugural Design 4 Safety Awards at IMHX 2010, which were founded to highlight the importance of product design in generating safer materials handling practices.

Transdek's Double Deck Lift was voted winner of its category on the grounds that it "deals thoroughly with the numerous hazards associated with the loading and unloading of double-deck trailers, which are being increasingly adopted by haulage operators to reduce costs and carbon emissions".

Citations from the judges also noted that, "based on the judges' real-world experience [Transdek's] Double Deck Lift reduces the likelihood of struck-by incidents involving lift trucks, and makes it safer to move loads at height".
