The new warehouse has more than twice the storage capacity compared to the old location, offering increased inventory capacity of all product lines. A new fully automated second belt line has also been installed, for faster turnaround on all belt orders.

The new warehouse also comes with an internal container loading and unloading facility and separately dedicated loading / unloading docks. While still delivering the same “Better by Design” products, and professional service…

Managing Director Paul Dennis explains how the move underlines the company’s strategy of maintaining high stock levels to be able to respond quickly to local customer demand.

“Our product inventory in Australia now consists of the full range of sizes in the CC‐S HDPE & PU elevator buckets, the STARCO and SUPER-STARCO pressed steel bucket range and the industrial Atlas AA Nylon elevator bucket ranges. We stock FRASOR, Heat Resistant and Food Grade elevator belts in a variety of Tensile strengths, as well as many different styles/sizes of elevator bolts in both metric and imperial sizes. Our electronics range has now also grown to include the highly successful range of level indicators, and we now stock almost all the electronics that 4B offer globally to support the growing requirement for products that meet the high standards of IECEx certification. Since re‐locating we can now also offer our customers from stock, the 4B range of forged chain products for drag conveyors with a variety of flight options.”
