Explosion-proof transport machines
Buy and rent explosion-proof trucks from Joris Van Dijck
Do you work in an environment with a risk of explosion, such as a chemical plant or a warehouse with regular dust and gas concentrations? Then you are required to work with explosion-proof transport machines. These vehicles are often found in the (petro)chemical, recycling, food, pharmaceutical, and logistics industries, among others.
At Joris Van Dijck, you will find a complete range of explosion-proof forklifts, warehouse trucks, and transport vehicles. Our machines are safe, certified, and can be used in ATEX zones. Buy or rent? We provide solutions that meet your safety standards and business flow.
Why explosion-proof devices are essential
In environments with flammable gases, vapors, or dust particles, even the smallest spark or the slightest hot surface can cause an explosion. Motors, brakes, and electronic components in standard trucks pose immediate risks in such situations. Explosion-proof machines, certified according to ATEX/APEX standards, have been specifically developed to avoid such risks:
✓ Insulated and enclosed electrical components to prevent sparking
✓ Temperature monitoring of critical components, automatic shutdown in case of overheating
✓ Heat-sensitive areas protected with heat-resistant materials or additional ventilation
✓ Coatings and materials that minimize static electricity
✓ Explosion-proof and certified batteries and fuel systems
Thanks to these technologies, you can work safely, even in areas that you would avoid with standard transport equipment.
Choose your explosion-proof vehicle depending on the zone or application
Not every explosion hazard is the same. Depending on the ATEX zone in which you work (e.g., gas or dust risk in Zone 1 or 21), you choose the right equipment. Our explosion-proof forklifts, warehouse trucks, and aerial work platforms are available in different versions, each specifically suited to certain zones.
Are you considering a purchase or rental? Then pay attention to the following points:
✓ Zone type: 0, 1, 2 or 20, 21, 22, tailored to gas or dust risk
✓ Type of machine: forklift truck, warehouse truck, or aerial work platform
✓ Drive system: electric or other suitable drive system
✓ Capacity and height for your daily workload
✓ Maintenance frequency and technical support
With our filter tools and personal approach, we help you work in hazardous zones in a targeted manner and in compliance with all regulations.
