B&B Attachments helps improve productivity at Marshalls Falkirk

Marshalls is the UK's leading hard landscaping manufacturer, and has been supplying natural stone and innovative concrete products to the construction, home improvement and landscape markets since the 1890s. Marshalls has become synonymous with quality, supplying prestigious landmarks such as Trafalgar Square.

Marshalls satisfies the needs of a diverse commercial customer base, which spans local authorities, commercial architects, contractors and house builders and is committed to producing new products made from the best materials. Over the years, Marshalls has continued to develop and expand its products and services to the commercial market.

To continue Marshalls growth, and as an integral part of its end of line productivity, B&B Attachments, the UK’s leading supplier of forklift attachments and exclusive UK distributor of Kaup equipment, has supplied the landscaping manufacturer with 360 degree Fork Rotators on flexible casual hire contracts. This gives Marshalls the option to return equipment at any time if they no longer have a requirement, or to send the equipment to other Marshalls sites that may have the demand.

The Kaup Rotator attachment is fundamental for onsite operations when loads require rotating, and is used by Marshalls to empty containers, to turn palletised and non-palletised goods, and to deal with waste.  Rotators can be equipped with a fork carriage and forks, as well as with clamps or other load handling attachments.

Kaup Rotators allow for optimal visibility when approaching loads, whilst increasing driver confidence and ensuring safe and secure handling. The hydraulic drive is located on the side away from the operator resulting in excellent visibility, enabling fast and reliable operation.

Ian Moir, Logistics Manager at Marshalls Falkirk comments “The rotator attachment provided by B&B Attachments is an integral part of our operation and has made a big difference to our on-site productivity. The ease of use and reliable operation of the attachment, together with the service given by B&B, has been second to none.”

Kaup Rotators are available from B&B Attachments for short and long term hire and can fit to almost any forklift truck. B&B has access to a large fleet of attachments for short and long term hire, covering every industry sector. All hire attachments include full maintenance and breakdown cover as part of the rental package.

Established over 30 years ago, B&B Attachments Ltd offers the largest range of products from a single source. With customers throughout the UK and Europe, B&B continues to build on its reputation for offering the most comprehensive aftercare service available in the attachment field.
