Davies Turner Air Cargo upgrades Heathrow logistics with cutting-edge material handling equipment, enhancing efficiency and safety.
Davies Turner Air Cargo, one of the UK’s leading air freight and logistics providers, has upgraded its Heathrow hub with a new fleet of advanced material handling equipment (MHE). The investment includes seven electric forklift trucks, three reach trucks, and a battery changing truck, all equipped with high-tech batteries and chargers from the Bobcat MHE range.
Partnering with Rushlift, its trusted supplier for nearly 30 years, Davies Turner emphasises innovation and safety. The MHE fleet features advanced safety technologies such as perimeter proximity lights, pedestrian detection cameras, and RFID beacons to prevent collisions. Fork cameras improve visibility, while progressive directional arrow lights enhance guidance in operational zones.
Oliver Simmons, General Manager of Heathrow Services, remarked, “This investment underscores our commitment to operational excellence and workforce safety, ensuring we meet the evolving needs of our clients.”
The upgrade solidifies Davies Turner’s reputation for combining state-of-the-art technology with industry-leading logistics solutions.
