MECHANICAL FORKLIFT ATTACHMENT FOR THE HANDLING OF SLIP-SHEETS AND AIR FREIGHT PALLETS.

Meijer’s Impact, From Packaging Industries to Formula 1 Logistics

It all started with a request from a packaging material producer who did not want to invest in heavy and expensive push-pull attachments for transporting goods on slip-sheets. Meijer Handling Solutions designed a forklift fork, KOOI® RollerForks, with two layers of rollers rotating in opposite directions when they touch the floor, causing the load to remain stationary as the forks are withdrawn from under the load. A very simple but efficiënt slip-sheet handling system.

Years ago, following our forklift forks with rollers, known as RollerForks, the first request came from a military organization for handling air cargo goods with so-called ULDs (Unit Load Devices) or aluminium air freight pallets. Meijer developed a suitable solution for this, and now these are sold to many other military entities, aid organizations, and even in autos sports, with Formula 1 being one of our many clients.

It’s beneficial to understand that a specific choice of pallet exchange can be made based on the application.
