Hopper

What is a hopper?

A hopper is a type of container whose bottom can be opened to unload the contents. Using the forks of a forklift truck, the loading box is lifted and moved to dump the products placed in it at the desired location or container. This is very convenient as it empties quickly and effortlessly. A bottom unloader is used to fill the container and then the bottom is manually loosened by a cable to empty it.

Choose hopper barge

The first step in choosing your hopper barge is deciding what shape it should be. Then you need to decide on the load capacity to make sure it is suitable for your goods. Once you've established these criteria, you'll have a better idea of the solution you need. Next, you need to decide whether your hopper barge should have solid sides or mesh sides. The second solution is interesting if you work with different types of products, so that you know which goods are in the lower bin of your lift truck. Finally, choose different colors if you're using more than one, so you can distinguish them at a glance.
