• Designed for Dependability
    Products designed for the professional who depends on their equipment

    Every product we build starts with an analysis of how it will actually be used. We look at load, floor surface, frequency of use, and the environment the piece will sit in (indoor or outdoor) before a design ever reaches our production floor. That is how we make sure the equipment is ready to work the day it arrives and stays ready for years after.

  • Value Driven Products
    Industry leading quality and finishing standards

    Through years of innovation, we are proud to distribute the highest quality product in the industry. We build to last so your operation is not replacing the same cart or hand truck every few years, and so downtime from equipment failure stays off your schedule. Each process of manufacturing is setup to create not only the highest quality product in the industry, but also the highest quality paint finish and durability.

    Conservative safety factors let you focus on your business

    Safety is always top of mind at Unitran. With industry leading safety factors we let you focus on your business, and worry less about your equipment. Stable bases, secure shelving, and finishes that resist the corrosion warehouse environments cause are part of the design brief from the start, not an afterthought.

Warehouse Handling Equipment

Material handling equipment covers the hand trucks, carts, ladders, and storage products your team uses to move, lift, and store goods around a warehouse or facility. The quality of that equipment matters because it is handled constantly, often by different people in a single shift, and a weld or wheel that fails becomes a safety incident or a delay you did not plan for. We build ours so that question does not come up.

We manufacture warehouse material handling equipment from our Surrey, British Columbia facility, and we have done so since 1965. Our hand trucks, steel carts, rolling ladders, mezzanines, and specialty products are built to hold up under daily warehouse use and are sold through authorized distributors and retailers across Western Canada.

Our line covers most of what a warehouse or industrial operation needs to move and store product day to day:

Ready to equip your operation with warehouse equipment built to hold up? Contact our Surrey team at 604-574-3465 or reach us at info@unitran.ca, Monday to Friday, 8am to 4:30pm.
