With further snowfall and ice expected over the coming months, Contact Attachment’s forklift solutions are set to continue to provide cost-effective contingencies to ensure workplaces remain operational.
The Newtown-based firm manufactures a range of forklift attachments which allow users to temporarily or permanently convert their forklifts and other specialist vehicles into manual handling equipment, with its winter range ideal for clearing away snow and keeping workplaces open during harsh weather conditions.
Dave Manuel, Technical Sales Director, explained: “We manufacture three styles of snow ploughs, including our standard fixed blade model which is angled to clear snow to the left, and an adjustable model which allows the blade to clear snow to the left, right, or straight ahead. We also produce the Spring Loaded model which includes an adjustable blade as well as a heavy duty spring, which minimises damage to the plough and other objects such as manhole covers and drainage.”
In addition, Contact Attachments manufactures its 190litre capacity Salt Spreader which can be used allyear round – from spreading salt during icy periods, to spreading seeds, fertilizer and weed killer. It is also fully compatible with a variety of vehicles including forklifts, ATVs and 4x4s.
And with a galvanized actuator offering the ultimate protection against corrosion and rust, in addition to preventing the salt from clogging, the towable spreader is also fitted with a flow regulator level to control the amount of spread used.
Its Walk Behind Spreader is another best-seller from its winter range and is suitable for anyone responsible for health and safety in the workplace. In addition to its lowcost and high value, the compact size of the Walk Behind Spreader enables any capable person to operate it, with durable pneumatic tyres, rain cover, and adjustable feed system all fitted as standard.
“I’d encourage anyone who is dependent on maintaining an operational site during the winter months to consider putting management plans in place and prevent the weather disrupting daily routines.
