Hartlepool, United Kingdom

UK forklift attachment and mast supplier B&B Attachments has continued its 20-year relationship with Hartlepool-based Camerons Brewery, with the supply of four new KAUP Keg Clamps to support the brewery's logistics operations.

Designed specifically for the safe handling of kegs, the KAUP Keg Clamps allow operators to move multiple kegs securely and efficiently, reducing product damage and improving productivity throughout the brewery's warehousing and distribution operations.

B&B Attachments is the exclusive UK distributor for KAUP attachments and also provides Camerons Brewery with ongoing servicing, maintenance and inspection of its keg clamps to ensure maximum operational efficiency.

Richard Forster, logistics manager at Camerons Brewery, says: “The latest keg clamps are another welcome addition to our fleet and will help us maintain the efficient movement of kegs throughout our warehouse”.

Neal Fowler, sales director at B&B Attachments, adds: “We're incredibly proud of our relationship with Camerons Brewery, which has now spanned two decades”.

US lead-acid battery specialists, Battery Builders (BBI) is introducing Power+, a new lead-acid battery line which it says is designed specifically for operations needing more capacity and power out of every charge cycle. 

BBI explains Power+ has been built around the battery needs of higher capacity, higher demand operations, and delivers increased power capabilities to handle heavier loads without the drop off that slows down a shift.

It adds the new line holds up to consistent output across repeated fast and opportunity charge cycles instead of losing performance over time and is built on proven lead-acid construction. 

It comes standard with a four-year warranty.

“It's the next step for fleets running heavier loads, longer shifts, and tighter schedules, where a battery that can't keep pace becomes the bottleneck for everything else,” BBI adds.
