Manufacturing Equipment Protection
Overview
Forklift and Material Handling Equipment Covers
Manufacturing equipment moves through a lot of environments before it reaches the end user. Forklifts, lift trucks, and other material handling equipment face exposure to corrosion, moisture, dust, UV rays, and extreme temperatures during shipping and storage. Transhield’s custom covers protect every unit through the supply chain, keeping your equipment ready to perform when it reaches the warehouse, distribution center, or cold storage facility.

Frequently Asked Questions
We build custom covers for forklifts, lift trucks, electric forklifts, conveyors, packaging machinery, palletizers, and other production-line assets. With no shape or size limitations, every cover is engineered to fit your specific equipment so it protects the components that matter most to operators and maintenance teams.
Yes. Our custom covers shield forklifts and material handling equipment, including battery compartments, from dust, moisture, and temperature swings that can affect lead-acid battery and lithium ion battery performance. That added protection helps extend service life and reduce downtime once the equipment is put into service.
Equipment sitting in storage without protection, whether before deployment or between uses, often show up with corrosion damage, dust buildup, and worn seals. That means repair costs and lost productivity before the equipment ever earns its keep. A custom Transhield cover blocks those issues from the start, supporting operational efficiency and a lower cost of ownership across your material handling fleet.
We can integrate vents, zipper doors, hook-and-loop fasteners, flaps, labeling, and ratchets so your team has easy access during inspections, charging, or final prep before the equipment is put into service. Labeling helps with quick identification in busy warehouses and distribution centers, while vents support airflow that prevents moisture buildup in any storage space.
Standard tarps and off-the-shelf covers aren’t built for the size, shape, or value of manufacturing equipment. Transhield offers a reliable solution engineered to your specific needs, with custom fit, water resistance, and optional VCI corrosion protection that holds up through shipping, long-term storage, and the harshest conditions.
30+ Years of Protection You Can Count On
