Material Handling Solutions
About us

Local, responsive, and backed by decades in material handling.

We're a team of material handling people, not a sales floor. Between us, we've spent decades around forklifts, warehouses, and the operators who run them, and that's shaped how MHS works. We know our stuff, we back our equipment and we partner with our customers to bring them the best solution possible.

As the exclusive New Zealand distributor for both Noblelift and IBEX, we bring premium equipment to New Zealand warehouses and stand behind it long after it arrives on site.

Racking and forklifts, planned together.

MHS works closely with Pallet Racking Solutions (PRS), one of New Zealand's leading suppliers of warehouse racking systems. That relationship lets us take a more integrated approach to warehouse planning than most forklift suppliers can.

Racking layout, aisle width and forklift design all pull on each other. Understanding how means we can help businesses build warehouses that hold more, run more safely and work more efficiently, rather than solving one of those and paying for it somewhere else.

In many cases the biggest gains don't come from a different forklift at all. They come from rethinking how the forklifts and the warehouse are set up to work together.
