Glass Handling Equipment FAQs
HUBTEX Australia provides a dedicated range of glass transportation and handling solutions tailored to the specific needs of the glass industry. With more than 35 years of experience in industrial material handling solutions, we design vehicles that safely move glass sheets, framed units, panels, stillages and other fragile loads both within warehouses and between production and delivery points. Our solutions combine precision control with robust construction so operators can handle glass with confidence and minimise the risk of damage during transit and storage.
Standard forklifts are not optimised for the unique demands of glass transport because glass is fragile, susceptible to breakage, and often comes in large, flat panels that are difficult to support with a typical fork carriage. HUBTEX vehicles offer multidirectional steering, specialised attachments, and custom configurations that support both horizontal and vertical movement of loads. This enhanced manoeuvrability and tailored support allows operators to move glass with greater control and reduced risk, improving both safety and productivity when compared to conventional trucks.
When evaluating glass handling equipment suppliers, it is important to consider experience with fragile loads, quality of equipment engineering, service support, and the ability to tailor solutions to your operation. A trusted supplier should understand the balance between load stability, operator visibility and precise control, while offering machines that can operate safely in tight spaces or high-density storage areas. As a recognised provider of industrial material handling solutions in Australia, HuUBTEX combines market-proven German engineering with local support to deliver vehicles that meet these exacting requirements.
Our glass handling vehicles are designed for comprehensive glass transportation workflows, supporting tasks from internal warehouse movement to loading and unloading transport vehicles. With modular configurations and custom attachment options, HUBTEX machines can adapt to a range of environments, including sheet storage racks, narrow aisles, staging areas and truck docks. This versatility makes them ideal for businesses that require seamless transfer of glass products through multiple stages of their logistics process.
HUBTEX stands out among glass transport companies and glass handling equipment suppliers because we deliver specialised solutions rooted in deep industry expertise and tailored application insight. Our focus on multidirectional steering, custom vehicle configurations, precision load control and robust support services ensures that your glass handling operations run smoothly and safely. With a strong presence in materials handling and a track record of solving complex load-movement challenges, HUBTEX offers both the equipment and the domain knowledge to maximise performance and minimise operational risk.
