BMB Industrial Cabs News

When no template exists for your machine, we design a custom forklift cab around the truck itself. Send us the make and model. We visit your site, scan the machine and handle the engineering from there. Many bespoke enquiries reach us after another supplier has said, “We don’t make that model”, or asked for technical…

You have a forklift in the yard and a customer waiting for an answer. They need a cab. You have tried your usual suppliers, searched the catalogues, and come back with nothing. The model is too old, too uncommon, or simply one nobody has designed a kit for. That does not mean the search is…

A forklift operating on an aerospace or precision manufacturing site faces very different demands from one working in an outdoor logistics yard. It may move between indoor production areas and exposed loading bays dozens of times a day. It may carry high-value components through tightly controlled environments where cleanliness, precision, and operator focus matter just…

Every year, the same thing happens. The weather turns, temperatures drop, and operators head out into the yard with little or no protection from the wind and rain. Suddenly, forklift cab protection moves from next month’s job to today’s priority. By then, many fleet managers are already behind. What could have been planned during the…

Price is usually the first thing people compare when choosing a cab. It is easy to understand why. The number sits clearly on the quote, making it simple to compare one supplier against another. The problem is that the purchase price only tells part of the story. The real tests start after installation. A cab…

Running vehicles across more than one site always adds a layer of difficulty. A forklift that works well in one warehouse may struggle in a cold yard, a dusty loading area, or a depot with tighter access points. Selecting a cab for a multi-site fleet needs more thought than choosing something that fits one machine….

Cold yards. Longer shifts. Rising operator expectations. Tighter safety requirements. Industrial cab design is changing faster than many fleet buyers realize. What was once viewed as a simple weather protection upgrade is becoming a much bigger part of operator welfare, productivity, and long term fleet planning. Across warehouses, logistics hubs, agricultural sites, airports, and outdoor…

Not every industrial vehicle arrives with an off the shelf cab solution available. In fact, some of the most challenging projects involve machines that have been modified over time, imported from different markets, or built for highly specific operational roles.  Every few weeks, we hear the same thing from fleet managers and operators. They have…

Retail distribution centres do not slow down for bad weather. Forklifts move constantly between loading bays, warehouse aisles, and outdoor yard areas, often across long shifts and tight deadlines. In environments like these, small operational frustrations can quickly become safety concerns. This industrial cab safety case study looks at how one UK retail distribution centre…

Not every cab kit is built for the same level of work. At first glance, many systems look similar. They cover the operator, provide some weather protection, and fit the machine. The real differences appear after months of outdoor use, long shifts, and constant exposure to rain, dust, vibration, and heavy workloads. This is where…
