Hand Truck 360 Solutions that Reduce Certain Workplace Injuries

The number one cause of injury for the past several years is overexertion, which consists of 22.7% of all injuries at a cost to the industry of $13.3 Billion (a statistic that continues to climb year over year). Injuries caused by overexertion, is followed by falls on the same level, struck by objects, and other exertion of bodily reactions (more statistics that together add up to an additional 35.7% and $20.9 billion in injury costs).

Awkward load shifts are addressed in two ways. The hand truck tools have an easy-to-use attached retractable ratchet strap designed to secure loads either horizontally or vertically without having to place and hold a strap in place while using another arm to secure. The hand trucks have wheel positioning, easily accessible fingertip triggers on each handle with secure pin placement for positions at 45, 90 and 180 degrees to allow for non-lifting direction change and maneuvering that can be completed smoothly without applying unnecessary load shift force.
