Belle Warrior - Bringing Wheelbarrows into the 21st century
![Belle Warrior - Bringing Wheelbarrows into the 21st century](_images/news/WarriorEditorial.jpg)
According to English archival and French pictorial sources the wheelbarrow rolled onto medieval construction sites in the early 13thcentury and nothing has really changed until Now!
Traditionally with a life span that is measured in weeks not months, before being discarded to rust in a corner thus blighting our environment; current wheelbarrows prove an abysmal return on investment
Badly designed; imported product does not meet the requirements of UK contractors and landscapers and usually offers less efficient solutions to a basic site requirement for moving material through smaller tray sizes
Altrad Belle; as part of Europe’s largest wheelbarrow manufacturer has now provided an innovative solution for all contractors & hirers with their Belle Warrior which features:-
- Indestructible High Density Polyethylene 100 litre Tray offers low noise loading of bricks and other materials and is ideal for urban use where noise can be a problem; as well as facilitating a quick & easier cleaning of usually stubborn materials such as concrete and asphalt
- Ergo metrically designed this wheelbarrow meets the build profile of the UK contractor by having an adjustable wheel plate for better balance, thus preventing common “back strain”
- Heavy Duty & Reinforced Electro Plated Frame offers longevity by preventing corrosion and frame failure through overloading; a common problem on standard barrows
- Environmentally friendly “Never Run Flat” tyres that comply 100% with REACH legislation in relationship to material composition offer the ultimate solution to the previously unavoidable puncture providing the optimal footprint under load to replicate a pneumatic tyre
- Needle bearings in the wheel ensure ease of operation over the toughest site conditions
- Unprecedented One Year Warranty from the No.1 Supplier of Light Construction Equipment gives total assurance on a quality product
