The rapid rise of ecommerce—in addition to thriving plastics, automotive and tech manufacturing sectors—have created new challenges for warehouse and manufacturing facilities, leading them to look for new ways to drive operational efficiency in order to meet growing demand on labor and resources. Using right-sized, task-matched vehicles across operations can help optimize the entire warehouse or manufacturing process.
Most manufacturing facilities are faced with three main challenges to achieve operational excellence: safety, labor efficiency, and productivity.
Improving safety, labor efficiency, and productivity by optimizing the way you move goods around your facility can SAVE YOU MILLIONS OF DOLLARS in operating expenses.
INCREASED SAFETY
Safety is one of the biggest concerns in manufacturing facilities. Every year, there are close to 35,000 OSHA-reportable forklift accidents resulting in serious injury or death. Since 2002, there have only been 8 total OSHA-reportable tow tractor accidents. Converting to Taylor-Dunn tug systems can drastically reduce your risk of injuries compared to the conventional forklift in horizontal material flow areas.
