Mobicon Systems, in partnership with their South African distributor, BLT World, has launched the second-generation 2HL mini-straddle carrier in Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands. 

The mini-straddle carrier is a key piece of machinery in BLT’s extensive range of container handling equipment.  

With the launch of the second-generation 2HL, African businesses can now experience greater productivity with a tighter turning circle, remote twist lock system, and an ergonomically designed cabin for increased visibility.  

Mobicon mini straddle carriers are available exclusively throughout Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands from BLT World as rentals or for purchase. 

BLT World was founded in 2005 and specialises in trading machine components for the materials handling industry. Besides equipment sales, the company offers technical support and maintenance.
