AKRON, Ohio — Akro-Mils, a North American provider in storage, organization and transport products, has introduced new styles of its popular VERSA/Deck platform truck system.
This structural foam platform truck — which can be customized to customers’ exact needs with numerous handle, rail and caster options — now features “tie-down” slots in the steel-reinforced deck for securing loads during transport. Other new features of the VERSA/Deck:
