CrateXpress is the only commercial relocation equipment
rental company where you can get the Samson Cart. Samson Carts®, the patented
folding six-shelf library/file cart once again leads the
material handling industry by becoming the first and only
certified sustainable (green) product. Samson Carts
was designed to be a sustainable product to replace the
plywood and painted metal material handling carts found in
many industries such as moving, libraries and material
handling.
Samson Carts’ award comes after an eight-month study of its
sustainable design for the environment (DfE). MBDC
awards Cradle to Cradle Certification only after a rigorous
evaluation process that considers material safety and
reusability, water and energy consumption, pollution and
social equity. Press Release >>
