UNITED KINGDOM / AGILITYPR.NEWS / July 07, 2025 / As the UK’s cold chain sector continues to grow thanks to sustained demand in food, pharmaceuticals, and grocery logistics, Pallet Trucks UK remains trusted supplier of specialist manual handling equipment built for chilled environments. From fish processing plants to pharmaceutical warehouses, the need for corrosion-resistant, durable pallet trucks has never been greater.

Cold storage logistics are now a focal point for many supply chains, particularly in the wake of Brexit-related changes and post-pandemic pressures. Maintaining product integrity while complying with complex regulations and tight delivery windows places added strain on warehousing operations. Pallet Trucks UK is meeting this challenge with its robust range of stainless steel and galvanised trucks, designed specifically for use in harsh, low-temperature environments where hygiene and reliability are paramount.

Among the standout products supporting this sector is the ACS20B Extra Wide Stainless Steel Pallet Truck, designed for corrosive environments such as meat processing plants, dairies, and pharmaceutical facilities. With a generous 2000kg load capacity and extra-wide forks for added stability, this model is ideal for transporting goods in and out of cold storage units. Its stainless steel construction offers superb resistance to corrosion, making it well-suited for operations requiring frequent washdowns.

Also proving popular in chilled environments is the BSS50 Stainless Steel Scissor Lift Table, which has a 500kg load capacity and can lift goods to heights of up to 1000mm. Designed with rear locking wheels and a safety clearance between the scissor arms, it offers a safer working solution for environments where goods need to be lifted and manoeuvred at an ergonomic height.

For operations that require lifting and transporting wider pallets within damp or corrosive conditions, the SS-SLT10-B Wide Stainless Steel Scissor Lift Pallet Truck provides both versatility and durability. Its pressure relief valve and stainless steel frame ensure long-lasting performance even in the harshest conditions!

Phil Chesworth, Managing Director at Pallet Trucks UK, commented, “The growth of the cold chain sector shows just how crucial it is to have equipment that can withstand extreme conditions and frequent washings without rusting or breaking. Our stainless steel range is built to last, reduce downtime, and keep goods moving safely - no matter how challenging the environment.”
