Flexible Conveyor Range UNI-FLEX

Expand your loose loading and unloading capability

Increased Efficiency in Loose Loading & Unloading of Vehicles

We are proud to present UNI-FLEX – a range of expandable, flexible and durable conveyors for loose loading and unloading applications. Loose loading eliminates “dead space” created by pallets or roll-cages.

Designed to endure the rigorous demands of Distribution Centres and parcel handling hubs around the world, UNI-FLEX conveyors will provide cost effective handling solutions – not only for the large distribution centres but also for smaller companies requiring only single units. UNI-FLEX expandable conveyors are engineered to the highest standards with reinforced ribbed, zinc plated steel side plates for additional strength, structural support across the width and heavy duty square tubing legs to ensure total stability. These conveyors are extremely flexible and are easily manoeuvred into position on braked swivel castors.
