As a fundamental piece of equipment used in many material handling and warehouse equipment industries, trolleys help transport products and goods around the workplace. In particular, our platform trolleys are designed to excel when being used frequently in moderate to high usage environments. All of our industrial flatbed trolleys have a fully welded construction and are produced to meet all your platform trolley needs.
Industrial Uses of Our Platform Trolleys
Platform trolleys are used in all kinds of industrial environments. In particular, they are a staple in many warehouses and factories, acting as warehouse platform trolleys and factory platform trolleys. Besides this, they are also suitable for use in retail, office, cleaning, kitchen and school environments. Regardless of your work environment, our platform trolleys are designed to meet the highest demand applications industries have to offer.
Things to Consider When Buying Our Industrial Platform Trolleys
Before choosing a platform trolley for your workplace, you should consider its dimensions such as handle height and load capacity. At Team Systems NZ, our flatbed trolleys’ handle height and load capacity vary greatly between the trolley, ranging from 910mm to 1050mm in handle height and 340kg to 520kg in load capacity. It is also important to consider the size of the platform as this can affect the types of things you transport and the quantity. Being aware of these platform trolley differences is necessary to ensure your work environment remains safe and efficient.

Safety Features of Our Platform Trolleys
Our industrial platform trolleys are equipped with a number of features to enhance safety when using them. For example, our TS1A Platform Trolley has 100mm blue non-marking rubber castor wheels that help protect floors and reduce noise. Additionally, our TS2A Two-Tier Platform Trolley is equipped with non-slip industrial mat surfaces that provide extra grip and stability when transporting goods in the workplace. Furthermore, our TS1AXL Platform Trolley has 6 heavy-duty castor wheels for improved manoeuvrability when carrying heavy loads.
Apart from these individual safety features, all of our platform trolleys have a durable long-lasting powder-coated finish. They are also all protected with a 12-month frame warranty, making them safe and reliable.
Safety Measures You Can Follow When Operating Our Platform Trolleys
Even though our platform trolleys are designed to prioritise your safety when operating them, there are some additional measures that you can follow to further maintain safety in your workplace. For example, research demonstrates that pushing rather than pulling trolleys reduces your risk of harm. This is because you can run over your own feet when pulling trolleys, and pulling while walking backwards can cause hazards like tripping and falling. Although these techniques might be unavoidable in some situations, it is important to follow appropriate safety measures where possible in order to protect yourself and your employees.
Furthermore, try to avoid using industrial trolleys on unstable and uneven surfaces like steep slopes and stairs. Since these can lead to injuries such as back injuries, sprains and damage to ligaments, nerve joints and bones, it is vital that you always operate platform trolleys on appropriate surfaces. Moreover, it is a good idea to examine your workplace’s floor conditions on a regular basis, and be aware of ramps and slopes that may require mechanical assistance to help you move heavy equipment.
