More than just a novelty, lift truck customisation can fulfil a cost-management function to help adhere to the tight budgets typical of warehouses, distribution centres and logistics facilities, helping put logistics operations in control.

Providing additional useable space, Westgate Global recently installed a Flexistructure temporary external building at Woodpecker Flooring in Caerphilly, Wales. The high-quality flooring manufacturer required an external shielded loading bay on their existing site. The building needed to be adjoined to an existing building to reduce wind and dirt ingress and protect from the weather during loading, our buildings/facilities feature reports.
