Tailored Handling Solutions from B&B Attachments take Centre Stage at IMHX

IMHX 2025, the UK’s premier event for logistics and supply chain professionals, is set to return to the NEC Birmingham from 9th–11th September and B&B Attachments is ready to showcase the very latest in forklift attachment innovation on Stand E10.

“Preparations are nearly complete, and we’re excited to reveal what we’ve been working on,” says Mike Barton, Managing Director at B&B Attachments. “This year, visitors to our stand will see the most advanced handling solutions from B&B, alongside cutting-edge developments from our partner KAUP, all under one roof.”

A standout product this year is the Open Centre LayerMaster, specifically engineered for the produce, retail and distribution sectors. This versatile attachment not only maintains the exceptional layer picking and depalletising performance of the original LayerMaster, but also supports full pallet swaps, pallet rebuilding, and mixed-load construction, providing unmatched flexibility for dynamic warehouse operations.

Also turning heads will be the KAUP Smart Load Control (SLC) system, an autonomous, patented technology that intelligently regulates clamping force without interfering with forklift hydraulics. “SLC is a game-changer,” says Mike. “It eliminates product damage by adjusting clamp pressure automatically based on load requirements, with no driver interaction required.”

New for 2025, B&B will feature the KAUP T266C Fork Positioner integrated with VETTER SmartFork®, together they are a powerful combination for precision handling. The T266C offers excellent visibility, durability, and fast fork positioning. When paired with SmartFork®, it delivers a safer and more efficient operation. “This pairing enhances accuracy, reduces risk, and empowers operators with feedback in real-time,” adds Mike.

Available to view on stand E10 is the robust K320 BlockMaster attachment, purpose-built for the concrete and construction industry. Designed to handle dense and heavy block products with precision and care, the BlockMaster ensures damage-free clamping and consistent load stability, even in the most demanding environments. “It’s engineered for performance and durability, ideal for block manufacturers and builders’ merchants looking to optimise throughput without compromising product quality,” explains Mike.

The ever-popular Push-Pull attachment will also be shown on stand E10. Ideal for operations using slip sheets instead of pallets, this attachment is designed to handle pallet-less materials efficiently. It is perfect for industries handling beverages, bagged goods, fruit, and corrugated packaging. “It’s a proven performer that delivers both cost efficiency and reliability,” Mike comments.

Visitors to Stand E10 can also explore tailored handling solutions for paper rolls, kegs and casks, and palletised loads. Book a meeting with the B&B team today by calling 01670 737373, and experience firsthand how innovation is shaping the future of material handling.
