Effortless Mobility with Countertop Lift Assist
Moving natural stone slabs is a physically demanding task for fabricators performing this through manual means. The mere weight of most stone slabs poses significant challenges, which, if mishandled, can often result in breakages and worker injuries. Our innovative EZ Combination countertop lift assist is designed to revolutionize the task, making it safer and more efficient – addressing these practical installation challenges head-on! With robust and user-friendly design, our loader and cart take these installation risks out of your hands and puts the power of effortless movement at your fingertips.
Slab Handling Safety
The importance of slab safety remains a crucial factor at every stage of the supply chain. However, adhering to safety guidelines is just as essential when the stone is not being handled. Implementing safety measures and guidelines is paramount to prevent injuries and fatalities among workers.
Key tasks and locations where slab handling safety takes precedence:
Unloading from delivery trucks or trailers.
Moving from delivery trucks to storage areas.
Positioning in storage racks.
Transferring from one workstation to another.
Retrieving from storage areas.
Transporting from facilities to transport trucks.
Final installation

Risks During Slab Loading & Unloading
The process of loading and unloading slab transporters involves handling exceptionally heavy slabs, and numerous potential hazards could lead to worker injury during these operations. Should any component of the material handling equipment malfunction – be it a lifter, clamp, boom, or even a seemingly trivial piece of slab lifter connection hardware – it could result in the slab falling and causing harm to the individual overseeing the operation.
Making Stone Moving Safer
No Physical Lifting Required!
Stone is best transported and stored in a vertical, on-edge position due to this material’s inherent strength and rigor. By creating installation equipment that facilitates the vertical transfer of stone material, we help significantly lower tension forces, thereby drastically minimizing the risk of slab cracking. The EZ Installation Cart and the EZ Loader duo is engineered to facilitate a smoother, quicker countertop installation process, all while significantly minimizing the potential for injury.
Ensuring Safety During Lifting and Handling
We recommend that those engaged in stone fabrication, particularly in the lifting and handling of stone, should review their processes and procedures to guarantee safety. This includes:
Ensuring no individual is within the potential fall zone while handling a slab.
Establishing safe work systems that ensure slab lifting and handling are planned by a competent individual and are adequately supervised.
Keeping slabs secure during all loading and unloading operations.
Providing employees with appropriate information, instruction, and training on the risks.
Ensuring that suitable equipment and PPE are provided, maintained, utilized, and inspected.
Conduct thorough inspections of all lifting and handling equipment to confirm they are safe and suitable for their intended purpose.
