Coil
transport
HUBTEX vehicles offer you a wide range of transport solutions for coils. We use various solutions to adapt the vehicle to the specific requirements of our customers. Whether the coils are to be picked up in a standing, lying or suspended position, we can offer you the right solution. The spectrum ranges from platform vehicles through electric multidirectional sideloaders to heavy-duty compact forklifts.
Task areas
The heavy-duty compact forklift from HUBTEX
The HUBTEX RoxX compact forklift with electric drive transports sheet metal, aluminum or copper coils weighing up to 25 tons. The compact forklift is characterized by its very compact external dimensions, in comparison with competing products. In particular, the patented steering system ensures minimum turning radii, thereby enabling more storage space to be used.
The platform truck from HUBTEX
The HUBTEX platform trucks and heavy-duty transport systems are particularly suitable for the in-house transport of very heavy loads. The platform trucks can be individually adapted for the respective application. A wide range of chassis and operating concepts is available as well as different concepts for automation of these vehicles. In this regard, our SFB platform trucks find their perfect use in coil transport.
Electric towing tractor with gooseneck
The HUBTEX electric towing tractor with hydraulic gooseneck is suitable for handling cargo trailers when coils are to be transported frequently, quickly and reliably. The vehicles are individually adapted to the customer's wishes, guaranteeing an optimal dovetailing of the in-house processes.
The electric multidirectional sideloader from HUBTEX
The HUBTEX electric multidirectional sideloader is a true multitasker. It can be used in almost every sector. Whether in the basic version, with assistance systems or as a fully automated transport system, the electric multidirectional sideloader can be used for almost all application scenarios.
The heavy-duty electric multidirectional sideloader
Our “power packs” are particularly suited to the universal transport of a wide variety of coil variants. All possible loads – whether very heavy or bulky – can be transported using a heavy-duty electric multidirectional sideloader. It can also be used in narrow aisles or freely both indoors and outdoors. In addition, the models within the series can be adapted to suit all individual customer requirements.
The coil transporter from HUBTEX
The HUBTEX coil transporter is the specialist when it comes to the internal handling of coils for feeding production machines and conveyor systems. Due to its very compact design, this vehicle can also be used with minimal space requirements. The coil transporters are configured individually for each customer.
The reach truck from HUBTEX
The HUBTEX SQ reach truck is characterized by its compact design combined with its high load capacity of up to 6 tons. Thanks to its size, the reach truck can also be used in aisles of the same width as conventional reach trucks. Handling heavy coils is child's play with our reach truck. Thanks to its significantly higher load capacities, it puts other lift trucks in the shade. In addition, the energy-efficient control system enables long battery operating times.

CASE STUDIES
What our customers and partners say about our products and services.
AGC Seapane
At AGC Seapane in Zeebrugge, Belgium, two HUBTEX multidirectional sideloaders move empty and loaded glass racks every day between the warehouse, the loading bay, and external storage areas, as well as for truck loading. One HUBTEX MQ 30 has been in operation for almost 15 years. Since early 2024, the fleet has been expanded with a PHOENIX MQ 30 featuring 3-ton capacity and multidirectional steering. After trialing a competitor truck and then returning to the proven technology, this combination delivers high availability, short transit times, and consistently stable operations.
Hardware and DIY distributor LAMIPLAST
In the Hardware & DIY sector, where space utilization is crucial, Lamiplast needed to optimize its intralogistics to store materials up to 6 meters long and operate safely in narrow aisles. High daily throughput required a multidirectional electric sideloader offering greater maneuverability, fewer maneuvers, and precise handling of a wide variety of loads. With the HUBTEX PHOENIX MQ, Lamiplast makes better use of every square meter of warehouse space while working more efficiently and comfortably.
Tigris Building Solutions
Tigris Building Solutions in Plombières, Belgium, handles pallets as well as long loads such as timber profiles and sheet material every day in tight aisles, indoors and outdoors. To cover truck loading, in house transport, and machine feeding flexibly and efficiently without additional vehicles, the company relies on two HUBTEX FLUX 30 units and one HUBTEX MQ 45. The long standing partnership with HUBTEX and the planned expansion of the fleet underscore the value these solutions deliver in day to day operations.
