With a state-of-the-art manufacturing and parts facility in Fulda, Germany, HUBTEX products are known for their technical superiority, build quality, and reliability—hallmarks of German manufacturing.

Our extensive experience in the timber industry has given us a deep understanding of the specific requirements for handling products across various applications.

 

Tailored Solutions for the Timber Industry

Reducing damaged stock and implementing safe, efficient product handling are prime concerns for timber applications. From wholesalers and sawmills to wood-processing companies and kitchen and door manufacturers, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. At HUBTEX Australia, our Long Load solutions are custom-built to meet the specific needs of our customers.

 

New and Used Stock Available

With a wide range of solutions available, including Sideloaders, Multi-directional Forklifts, and Order Picking Systems, we have invested significantly in new stock to minimise lead times. As a result, customers can immediately reap the benefits of our high-quality, space-saving equipment.

In addition to new stock, we provide a comprehensive selection of quality-approved Refurbished machines, offering a cost-effective alternative. 

 

Our People Make the Difference

Specialist service support is of paramount importance for long load and narrow aisle applications. Our service engineers are trained to the highest standards here in Australia and at the HUBTEX factory in Germany. Operating from a fleet of modern service vehicles equipped with tailored spare parts and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, we ensure industry-leading first-time fix rates.

We are in a great position whereby we can offer our clients innovative space-saving solutions, but our people ultimately make the difference. We invest heavily in acquiring the right people and their ongoing training and development.

 

The NEW FluX 45 Multi-Directional Forklift Truck

The FluX 45 Multi-Directional Forklift Truck boasts a unique compact frame length and fixed lift mast. This design allows the FluX to function as a front loader for loading and unloading trucks and as a Sideloader for transporting long loads in confined spaces. Optimised for various applications, it features an ergonomic cabin, compact masts, a central seating position, and a fork carriage with sideshift, providing excellent visibility from all angles.

 

Go Green with the MaxX Multi-Directional Sideloader

The MaxX Multi-Directional Sideloader is available in three models and offers an eco-friendly alternative to diesel and LPG machines. Britton Timbers was the first timber company in Australia to purchase the MaxX, which led to reduced damage, noise and air pollution. 

Anthony Long, NSW Manager at Britton Timbers commented – “Our initial concern was whether electric trucks would cope with the workload, but after seeing the MaxX in operation, they have certainly exceeded our expectations.”
