Gypsum forks / Drywall forks

Safe handling of gypsum wallboards

Gypsum wallboards are particularly demanding when it comes to transport due to their sensitive material. 
Gypsum forks are the right solution. With their sophisticated design and protection options, they ensure both efficiency and safety - making them an indispensable tool for companies in the construction and logistics industry.

A thin fork blade with a bevelled fork tip enables effortless penetration between the sensitive gypsum wallboards. This allows the boards to be picked up and transported without damage.
In addition, the high fork back provides the necessary stability. Whether large individual boards or high stacks - Gypsum forks always provide a safe and reliable solution.

For even greater safety and protection during transport, various fork back protection options are available. These not only protect the sensitive panels from damage, but also minimise vibration and friction.
