For almost 100 years, OM Brand has been the go-to name for high-quality, advanced material handling equipment. We are one of the top material handling equipment manufacturing companies in India, and the biggest companies in the world trust us to deliver the best material handling equipment that can increase their operational efficiency whilst reducing costs.
From production to warehousing to supply, material handling equipment is an integral part of operations, so, no business can function without them. But there is another important aspect that all modern businesses must consider nowadays – environmental impact. With the Paris Accords coming into force, industries must take strict measures to reduce pollution and carbon footprint, and material handling equipment will play an important role in reducing environmental impact.
Environmental Challenges of Material Handling Equipment
Material handling equipment contributes a considerable amount to pollution. Their production, operations, fuel consumption, and their by-products, all contribute to the environmental challenges. Here are some ways material handling equipment creates pollution:
They are Loud – Material handling equipment like forklifts and WHEs can cause a lot of noise. Even operators must use ear protection while operating them.
They Burn Fuel – Most material handling equipment runs on fuels such as diesel or gases which produces a pollution.
Generate Waste – Apart from carbon emission, old, defective, and defunct material handling equipment that’s not recycled properly also becomes a part of the problem.
