More about the Material Guide
During daily operations, factories and industrial businesses handle a wide variety of materials and material compositions. With many of these materials, certain handling procedures must be followed, not only to protect materials and machinery, but also to ensure occupational safety for employees at all times. In addition, it may be important to store and transport certain materials correctly, and to test them at legally required intervals. In-depth knowledge about materials also ensures that construction materials, for example, are selected sensibly and used appropriately. This saves effort and costs in operation.
In the Jungheinrich PROFISHOP Material Guide, you will find helpful and detailed information. Here, among other things, you will acquire useful background knowledge on the construction and functioning of various battery technologies for material handling equipment. We also give you tips on the correct storage, maintenance and care of work materials from all areas of operation. Last but not least, the guide provides information about which legal requirements you must observe when handling hazardous materials and how to dispose of those and other materials in a legally compliant manner.
