B&B Attachments, leading manufacturer and supplier of forklift truck attachments and material handling solutions, has announced its official role as authorised UK distributors for Autem Vacuum Lifters Ltd.

Autem Vacuum Lifters Ltd are manufacturers of lifting and handling equipment. The company has over 20 years’ experience in designing and manufacturing vacuum lifters. Its registered office is in Kilmarnock, Scotland.

The company manufactures high-quality vacuum lifting systems for a variety of industries worldwide. Vacuum lifting machines are a great way to transport heavy items. They are designed for material handling in the construction, manufacturing, and logistics industries.

This easy-to-use system improves the handling and movement of difficult-to-manoeuvre objects, such as concrete blocks, steel, cladding, pipes, paving slabs and more. The lifters work by using suction which is achieved via a vacuum pump connected to a suction pad. Vacuum suction and release can be achieved in seconds.

“We are excited to add Autem Vacuum Lifters as a new lifting option to the UK, Ireland, and export markets. Our partnership with Autem allows us to offer an even wider range of material handling solutions to our customers. These innovative lifters are battery powered and require no installation, making them extremely user friendly, flexible, and cost effective.” Comments Mike Barton, Managing Director at B&B Attachments.

B&B Attachments is the UK’s sole distributor for three of Europe’s leading manufacturers of material handling equipment. The company also supplies specialist forklift truck attachments, designed and developed to order, and offers one of the most comprehensive after-care services available in the forklift truck attachments industry.
