POWERFUL MOVERS REDUCE WORKER INJURY TETHER-FREE OPERATION ENCOURAGES HIGH UTILIZATION FOR INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND SAFETY
The new RollMoverTM and Cart-Mover™ power movers can move any large or heavy object that can roll across a plant floor. The RollMover is ideal for safely moving circular loads, like large paperrolls or cable reels. The CartMover is ideal for moving heavy carts, dollies, cars, trucks or buses – virtually any object that can roll on its own wheels. Both movers are battery-powered for tether-free, safe operation. Units handle loads over 40,000 lbs. without the risk of tangled air hoses.
A toggle handle with variable-speed throttle facilitates operation in tight spaces. For more information call 800.531.2002 or visit www.appletonmfg.com.

HAZARDOUS MATERIAL SPILLS ARE EXPENSIVE TO CLEAN-UP,
BUT SO ARE RELEASES OF NON-HAZARDOUS PRODUCTS!

Trans Environmental Systems Inc. (TESI) manufactures a wide array of spill
containment pans for both truck and rail loading and unloading facilities. Our patented track pan designs can be closed between transloading operations to avoid collecting rainwater, snow and other blown-in debris that require expensive disposal and documentation. While at first glance, this may appear as a minor advantage, more complete analysis with show the expense of labor to pumping out containments, processing tainted rainwater, and then to dispose of it. We also manufacture the Haz-Hammock™ for fire dept. and first responder crews to traffic accidents, and in
plant events where hazardous materials may be released. We believe in capturing
the release “Before it Hits the Floor”. For more information visit www.transenvsys.com.
