With a strong foundation in engineering, developed at Lotus Engineering, we’ve designed and built numerous prototypes for a wide range of manufacturers—many of which were the first of their kind.

Our extensive skills and experience mean our products are designed with far greater consideration than standard sack trucks. Every model is engineered with ergonomics, safety, durability, and value for money at its core. These are problem-solving machines, delivering best-practice solutions across multiple industries.

Too often, outdated “customs and practices” are still seen as acceptable ways to work. But those days are behind us. Moving to safer and more efficient methods shouldn’t be viewed as just a cost—it’s an investment that frequently delivers a return by saving money and reducing risk over time.

Before we supported VW TPS parts distributors, the typical method for moving oil drums involved pushing full drums out of vans onto tyres, then having multiple people struggle to lift them upright for use. Today, a far more professional solution is in place. The Goodsman DD is now used across more than 70 UK sites, enabling safe, fast, and efficient drum handling while significantly reducing risk to users. That’s real progress.

It’s not just about power—it’s about control, handling, and how the equipment feels. Our machines make transporting heavy loads across challenging terrain feel almost effortless.

In 11+ years of manufacturing, not a single Goodsman sack truck has been condemned as “uneconomical to repair.”

Some of our products are truly one of a kind. Who else has designed and patented a single machine capable of safely transporting both steel and plastic drums, and driving them on and off a van with ease? It’s a far cry from the old method of dropping drums onto tyres—and, in our view, a far superior solution.

With over 70 years of engineering and manufacturing expertise, this product range has been developed to break the mould in material handing.

Significantly this patented product range is a game changer for being able to work in environments where manual tracks or forklifts cannot operate.

This electric powered sack truck range is PUWER qualifying and this means anybody can “grab n go” and do their work, not just for convenience but adding safety to work and in fact mitigating risk whilst delivering very high Return on Investment.
