Strikebox Engineering has announced a partnership with electric tug manufacturer MasterMover, providing customers in the biopharma manufacturing industry with a range of stainless steel electric tugs and tows. Strikebox, which manufactures stainless steel and plastic totes for the transportation of high-value and sensitive liquids, identified a need for a reliable load-moving solution, leading to the partnership with MasterMover.
“Our customers are focused on health and safety and are working with high-value materials throughout the manufacturing process,” said John O’Reilly, Managing Director of Strikebox. “Whenever our customers have used MasterMover stainless steel electric tugs to move our products, we’ve seen nothing but positive feedback. They are high-quality, reliable and easy to operate, and they offer fantastic control and movement in tight spaces – so they are ideal for use in the biopharma industry.”
MasterMover offers a range of electric tug and tow solutions, including pedestrian-operated, remote control and fully autonomous options. The company’s stainless steel range is designed for use in cleanroom environments across biopharma, food manufacturing, chemicals and energy.
“Cleanroom environments are highly regulated and controlled, but often tight to work in, with people moving high-value equipment and materials. It is, therefore, essential that they have the right tools available to move these items in a controlled, safe way,” said Andy Owen, Partner & Director at MasterMover. “Our range of stainless steel products is ideal for these environments, as they are easy to operate, offer superb control and manoeuvrability, and are compliant with cleanroom standards.”
Through the partnership, Strikebox will exclusively offer MasterMover stainless steel electric tugs and tows, with custom solutions available. “Our design team is known for innovation, and we have tackled a wide range of specific and custom requirements over many years,” said O’Reilly. “Like Strikebox, MasterMover has repeatedly designed, built and delivered custom solutions that meet and exceed customer expectations.”
MasterMover’s electric tug and tow solutions offer movement up to 30,000kg with a single machine and are designed for cleanroom environments across industries. Utilizing electric tugs for load movement ensures employee safety, eliminates manual handling, and drives operational efficiency, with a single operator able to move heavy loads easily and safely. Strikebox and MasterMover will collaborate to deliver custom solutions to their customers. Through the partnership, Strikebox will exclusively recommend and make available MasterMover stainless steel electric tugs and tows for different applications.
