Distilled water is often confused with deionised water as they are both very pure types of water and in some cases can be used for the same applications, when considering Deionised water or Distilled water, it is important to recognise that they are both manufactured in different ways and you should check with your supplier which if you can used Deionised or Distilled Water.
Distilled water is much more complicated and more time consuming to produce then deionised water there fore distilled water is considerably more expensive to buy, deionised water is usually a favourite type of purified water used in businesses as it is more cost effective but yet it is still a very pure type of water.

Palllet wrap has many names, shrink wrap, stretch wrap and of course pallet wrap, Stretch wrap or stretch film is a highly stretchable plastic film that is wrapped around items. The elastic recovery keeps the items tightly bound. In contrast, shrink wrap is applied loosely around an item and shrinks tightly with heat.
It is frequently used to unitize pallet loads but also may be used for bundling smaller items.
Types of stretch film include bundling stretch film, hand stretch film, extended core stretch film, machine stretch film and static dissipative film.

Just imagine if there were no cohesive national system for assessing the safe condition of cars. Imagine if garages were allowed to decide for themselves how to carry out MOT
tests. Imagine if an MOT certificate issued by one garage was based on criteria and
procedures which differed widely from those used by another. Imagine if there was no
one to oversee the process nationally and ensure consistent high standards.
This is very much like the situation which has applied to fork lift examinations... until now.
There is now a definitive new scheme. It has been developed by the two organisations which represent the fork lift truck industry, with the support of the HSE. It tackles all the current deficiencies in delivery of Thorough Examination.
At GB Forklifts we provide thorough examinations for forklifts which most business insurance providers require to make your insurance valid, our thorough examinations are done to HSE regulations to provide you with the confidence you would get with an M.O.T.
For more information about thorough examinations please contact us via the enquiry form or phone us on 01452 731350
Stay Green Eco Clean
Do you realise that certain cleaning chemicals have to be disposed off in the correct manor using specialist chemical disposal units which cost money or your business could be fine huge amount of money?
Well never fear we are now selling an ECO Friendly product which is a powerful citrus cleaner/degrease excellent for floor cleaners or to get dirt and oil of metals and floors.

That’s right green forklifts but it’s not a new thing, electric forklifts have been around for years long before the first electric car. The electric forklift was designed for confined spaces where exhausts fumes would not be acceptable some of these places include cold stores, freezers, fridges, small warehouses.
So if you’re thinking about getting a forklift or upgrading your old dog to a much more reliable forklift for your business make sure you consider an electric forklift to help keep our environment eco friendly and keep costs down for your business making an electric forklift a much more economical solution.
Work related accidents within the storage and warehousing industry remain a major issue, with many thousands of incidents recorded each year.
In 2007/08 the storage, warehousing and road haulage industries reported over 10,000 work related accidents to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and Local Authorities. Over 1700 of these accidents were classified as major injuries such as fractures and amputations.
Battery top up water is one of the main applications Deionised Water is used for. Lead acid batteries use Deionised water to conduct electricity, normal water does not conduct electricity as well as deionised water. Purified water lasts longer and conducts better because it has had the mineral ions removed making it purified water,

Deionisation
Deionised water, also known as demineralized water (DI water, DIW or de-ionised water), is swater that has had its mineral ions removed, such as cations from sodium, calcium, iron, copper and anions such as chloride and bromide. Deionisation is a physical process which uses specially-manufactured ion exchange resins which bind to and filter out the mineral salts from water. Because the majority of water impurities are dissolved salts, deionisation produces a high purity water that is generally similar to distilled water, and this process is quick and without scale buildup. However, deionisation does not significantly remove uncharged organic molecules, viruses or bacteria, except by incidental trapping in the resin. Specially made strong base anion resins can remove Gram-negative bacteria. Deionisation can be done continuously and inexpensively using electrodeionization.
Deionisation does not remove the hydroxide or hydronium ions from water. These are the products of the self-ionization of water to equilibrium and therefore are impossible to remove.
Deionised Water is commonly used for battery water which is the main thing we sell it for to our customers it is also commonly used for cooling system and many other applications, our water is of high grade and is very popular.

GRAVLOC - the greatest safety innovation ever realised for the Quick-Hitch
Gravloc is a safety device that uses gravity and hydraulic pressure to sense platform movement from a stable to an unstable condition. When a platform starts to become unstable, Gravloc intervenes by safely cutting out the pressure, and prevents further adverse movement.
Gravloc is a pilot operated switch that can either be retrofitted to an existing platform or included in the design and manufacture of a new product.
Dimensionally Gravloc is compact, light in weight, physically strong, and comprises of 100% non hazardous recyclable parts. Gravloc represents a unique blend of ‘value’ and ‘precision’ engineering encompassing industry proven components together with patent protected technologies.
The significance of Gravloc is that it addresses a fundamental need within all areas of powered lifting, i.e. to execute a lift without endangering anything or anyone in the process.
Gravloc’s uniqueness is that it introduces to industries (globally) a break-through design that can de-risk a variety of lifting operations ranging from nominal to some of the heaviest of lifting operations.
