KASTO wins materials handling safety award

At the IMHX international materials
handling and logistics exhibition,
held at Birmingham’s NEC in
March, KASTO won the BITA
(British Industrial Truck
Association)-sponsored IMHX
Design 4 Safety Award 2013 in the
category: Specialist Winner, Racking
& Storage. The award was presented
to Ernst Wagner, MD of KASTO, for
the Unitower automated storage and
retrieval system for long stock.

The presentation of material at an
ergonomic height in front of the
towers reduces the risk of injury to
operators in addition to speeding
delivery to machine tools for
maximum productivity.
