Lifting and carrying heavy or awkwardly shaped packaging can be uncomfortable, even dangerous. There are guidelines on how to lift and carry with proper posture and carrying points. A strategically placed carrying solution from Allen Field can encourage proper package handling and potentially reduce injuries from improper lifting. This is especially important in the workplace where lifting injuries account for the most Workman’s Compensation claims. Additionally, our handles are designed to provide protection from open corrugated edges and generally a more comfortable carrying experience.
