In today’s industries, lean production is a common approach to management that focuses on improving efficiency and quality by eliminating waste from processes. The use of castor steer trolleys can contribute to achieving lean production goals by enhancing efficiency, minimising quality issues, ensuring Health and Safety compliance, and ultimately reducing costs and reaction times.

Castor steer trolleys can be operated manually or towed by a motor mover or tow tractor, either individually or in train systems, depending on the workplace’s needs. The trailer’s castor layouts and steering systems provide various options to accommodate even the tightest of turns, as shown below.

Our team can develop a solution to maximise the movement of products within the workplace through feasibility studies and design. Our castor steer trolleys are designed and manufactured to optimise product movement and accessibility while complying with ergonomic and Health and Safety legislation.

For higher capacity requirements, please refer to our castor steer trailer section.

Our castor steer trolleys are flexible, robust, and a valuable addition to any workplace.
