J.H. Thomas Industries provides multifunction material handling tools that are not constrained by their types of loads, or limitations forced upon them by their operating environment.   

While there exists Very Narrow Aisle pallet handling equipment that can function in narrow aisles, sideloading equipment suitable to transporting your longer loads, and traditional counterbalanced trucks to manoeuvre pallets around your facility; all of this equipment lacks the flexibility to work outside of their constrained environment.  At J.H. Thomas, we feel our customers should have the ability to work without constraints.  That’s why, for over 35 years, we have provided one tool that functions as a compact VNA forklift in 4-1/2 foot aisles, counterbalanced truck, and sideloader in one versatile, sit-down lift-truck.    

As the oldest and largest Drexel dealer in North America, J.H. Thomas Industries has been providing new, used, and rebuilt Drexel forklifts for over 35 years.   Whether you are in distribution or manufacturing and responsible for material handling, Drexel trucks provide a method of effectively moving material both inside and outside of your facility.  The unique Drexel SwingMast enables you to either expand usable space in a cramped warehouse, or reduce the size of your new building. With the Drexel solution provided by J.H. Thomas Industries, you can virtually eliminate the need for multiple pieces of equipment and double handling of product.   New, used, and rebuilt 3 and 4-wheel Drexel SwingMast forklifts are available from J.H. Thomas Industries in capacities from 2,200 to 12,000 pounds, with lift heights up to 30 feet.  Contact J.H. Thomas for more details.
