Tong SwiftLift, part of the Tong Engineering Group, has unveiled a new 1200mm wide model in its well-known Interstore mobile conveyor range. Developed in response to growing demand for higher capacities and faster, more efficient handling, the wider Duo Interstore conveyor delivers increased throughput, reduced bottlenecks, and greater flexibility across a wide variety of product handling and loading applications.

Designed for versatile use across sites, the Duo Interstore conveyor can be configured for multiple operations, from store-loading and waste transfer, to moving product from one system to the next. When handling crops, Tong SwiftLift’s renowned focus on gentle handling ensures careful transfer, even at high capacities.
The new 1200mm wide Interstore conveyors maximise throughput are also suitable for an endless range of products and industries. From root crops, vegetables, and grain to waste and recycling materials, aggregates, soil, and woodchip, the robust design can handle virtually any product type or application with ease.

The 1200mm option is already proving popular, and we are proud to evolve the range to meet modern product handling requirements.”
One of the first UK customers to put the new 1200mm-wide model into action is G’s Growers, leading UK fresh produce business, supplying leading supermarkets and foodservice customers across the UK and Europe. They shared: “The new 1200mm duo conveyors from Tong SwiftLift have made a real difference to our operations.
