Revolutionising Forklift Efficiency and Safety: The Difference Cameras and Weighing Systems Make
B&B Attachments, the UK’s leading supplier of forklift truck attachments, is helping to transform forklift safety and performance with the integration of advanced camera and weighing systems, from trusted suppliers Motec and Griptech.
As the demands on warehouse and logistics operations continue to grow, so does the need for smarter and safer forklift technology. B&B Attachments is proud to offer camera and weighing systems that significantly enhance driver awareness, operational efficiency, and compliance.
Through its partnership with Motec, a global leader in industrial vision systems, B&B Attachments supplies high-quality forklift camera systems designed for demanding environments. These systems provide real-time video feedback from the forks or overhead mast, eliminate blind spots, support safer load handling and assist in manoeuvring within tight spaces and high racking.
“Motec’s advanced camera solutions give operators an unprecedented view of their environment, which is vital for safety and accuracy,” says Neal Fowler, Sales Director at B&B Attachments. “It’s about working smarter, with greater confidence.”
B&B also partners with Griptech, specialists in forklift truck weighing technology, to offer integrated onboard weighing systems. These systems allow operators to instantly weigh loads without leaving the cab, avoid overloading and comply with health and safety regulations whilst improving loading accuracy.
“Griptech’s weighing systems bring precision to every lift,” adds Neal. “They help prevent damage, ensure legal compliance, and contribute directly to cost savings.”
Together, these solutions create a powerful combination, enhancing both safety and productivity in day-to-day forklift operations. Whether working in logistics, manufacturing, or retail distribution, the use of camera and weighing systems supports businesses in achieving more efficient, controlled, and compliant handling.
B&B adds significant value to this offer through its comprehensive local support and unrivalled application knowledge. With full truck integration and any required fixing kits supplied and fitted by B&B, customers benefit from a smooth, professional installation process. Post-order services such as calibration, maintenance, and technical support ensure long-term performance and peace of mind.
“Our mission at B&B Attachments is to provide forward-thinking solutions that truly make a
difference,” says Neal. “Thanks to our valued partnerships, we can offer forklift users the tools they need to operate more effectively than ever before.”

Simplifying servicing to power productivity: why all brand support matters
Gareth Dunn, Head of Service at Kärcher UK, discusses why simplifying your cleaning equipment servicing will improve your operational productivity. In today’s fast-paced business environment, operational efficiency isn’t just an advantage
– it’s a necessity. From retail spaces to healthcare facilities, clean, safe environments are non- negotiable, and professional cleaning equipment plays a vital role in delivering these standards. However, the growing variety of machines, models, and brands used across different sites often brings unnecessary complexity – especially when it comes to servicing and maintenance.
The challenge of a mixed fleet Many businesses operate mixed-brand fleets, with machines acquired over time for specific roles or purchased based on availability. While practical in the short term, this approach can lead to long-term inefficiencies, particularly when multiple service providers are involved. Managing different contracts, call-out processes, and pricing
structures not only increases administrative burden, but often leads to inconsistent service standards, longer repair times, limited access to spare parts and reduced equipment lifespan. Ultimately, fragmented servicing undermines both uptime and operational continuity.
The solution: a unified service approach That’s why more facilities managers are turning to service partners who can support all cleaning equipment brands – not just their own. Having one expert provider simplifies maintenance, accelerates repairs, and reduces overall cost. With a single point of contact, businesses benefit from faster issue resolution and fewer contracts to manage, as well as consistent service delivery and streamlined reporting and accountability.
Kärcher’s All Brand Service: more than just Kärcher Kärcher has long been recognised for its high-quality machines and professional cleaning solutions. But many don’t realise that we also offer industry-leading service support for all brands of professional cleaning equipment. Our All Brand Service gives businesses access to a nationwide team of expert engineers and technicians trained across multiple makes and models. What’s more, businesses can enjoy on-the-spot diagnostics and repairs with fully stocked vans and a success rate of 92% of machines back in operation on the same day. Whether you operate vacuums, scrubber dryers, sweepers, or pressure washers from different manufacturers, Kärcher has the expertise and infrastructure to support you.
Total fleet control, minimal disruption By consolidating servicing through Kärcher, organisations can simplify operations and reduce downtime across their entire fleet. Our service team provides digital service reporting, transparent pricing and SLAs, scheduled preventative maintenance and compliance and safety assurance. No more juggling multiple contacts, variable response times, or inconsistent paperwork. Kärcher brings it all together — reliably and professionally.
Efficient servicing is smart business In a world where efficiency drives performance, simplifying your equipment servicing is more than convenient — it’s essential. Kärcher’s All Brand Service gives businesses the confidence that every machine is maintained to the highest standard, regardless of manufacture. No matter your cleaning challenge — there’s Kärcher for that.
