Contact Attachments has provided a leading UK manufacturer of carpets and entrance matting with a cost-effective solution to manual handling.

The forklift specialist supplied its Forklift ‘Clearview’ Boom to Matrix Flooring Solutions to help change its forklift truck capabilities from roll handling to pallet handling. Made from high-quality, robust and long-lasting EN19T steel, the ‘Clearview’ Boom allows users to swiftly mount it onto a forklift truck for when time is at a premium.
The Forklift ‘Clearview’ Boom comes with twin heel retention pins to ensure that they are fitted safely and securely to forklift forks, and come fully tested and certified to comply with the latest health and safety regulations.”
Jason Cadman, technical sales director at Contact Attachments, explained: "We tailor our Forklift ‘Clearview’ Booms to the exact requirements of our customers, taking into account the purpose for which the product will be used, as well as the roll diameter and weight, to ensure that it operates effectively with existing forklift truck forks.”
"They are an ideal product for a company such as Matrix Flooring Solutions, which handles a whole range of flooring products, from rolls and rugs, to carpet tiles and matting. The Forklift ‘Clearview’ Boom can be fitted within a matter of seconds, especially useful when the forklift’s abilities need to be changed frequently throughout the day,” Jason added.
Luke Hutchinson, owner of Matrix Flooring Solutions, commented: "I cannot express highly enough what a pleasure it was to deal with the team at Contact Attachments. They delivered the Boom when they said they would, and to our exact requirements. I wouldn’t hestiate to recommend this fantastic product, and company, to businesses of all shapes and sizes that need to change their forklift truck capabilities.”
