A material handling partner who can reliably get the right product at the right time can be a game-changer. C & B Material Handling fits this bill. Known for its focus on innovation and ethics, the company goes beyond mitigating current problems and equips clients with the confidence to tackle future needs.

One of the largest dealers of John Deere equipment, C & B, created a new division focused on material handling equipment and industrial-engineered solutions in 2021. This new division (C & B Material Handling, LLC) offers a comprehensive suite of industrial equipment, products, and services for those in material movement and storage. Leveraging products spanning forklifts, pallet jacks, telehandlers, warehouse vehicles and floor scrubber sweepers, it handles any warehousing, construction, or industrial site. For those requiring more sophistication, their engineered solutions department creates and installs fully automated systems that drive high levels of efficiency and accuracy reliably for many of the most common brands in America.

Its industrial lifting and moving equipment are designed for versatility and efficiency across various environments and applications. This flexibility is strengthened by C & B’s rental services, which encompass diverse solutions for temporary or long-term needs. Their engineered solutions department also includes dock and door, conveyors, and goods-to-person robotics, which enhance logistics with precision and speed.

At the core of C & B Material Handling lies a commitment to understanding and addressing each client's challenges. This customer-centric ethos permeates every aspect of its approach, fostering a consultative environment where client demands are met, and their expectations are surpassed. Its forward-thinking approach supports clients' growth objectives and evolving requirements, making C & B a reliable partner in the material handling industry today and in the future.

“We are one of a few single-source suppliers who can integrate traditional forklifts with cutting-edge automation, ensuring a seamless, future-proof approach for our clients. Our goal is to craft solutions that are not just effective today but adaptable for tomorrow's challenges,” says Kent Senf, president.

C & B elevates a client’s operational performance through impactful warehouse solutions. In line with this, it offers relevant resources and equipment from numerous leading brands to assist customers in advancing their business operations without disrupting their continuum. This holistic approach allows C & B to focus on individual components and consider the broader picture to deliver integrated solutions that meet the customer's objectives.

Known for its resourcefulness and ability to handle large-scale problems, C & B Material Handling was recently called in to solve several critical issues for a client’s Arizona-based production facility. The client installed a new conveyor and sorting system in their Arizona production facility and lost confidence in that supplier’s ability to get it up and running reliably. As a result, they called C & B’s engineered solutions team near their Virginia-based production facility to assess the situation, determine a solution, and install the appropriate corrections. Within short order, the C & B team mobilized relevant resources and had the proper solution in place. Even now, C & B is their supplier of choice for their operations in Virginia, Arizona, California, Pennsylvania, and Kansas. This success is a testament to C & B’s reputation for swift and effective problem-solving.

Such successes are driven by C & B's culture of integrity and a commitment to fulfilling promises. At the same time, the company's motto, ‘It is what we say it is,’ encapsulates its dedication to transparency and reliability. Another cornerstone of success is C & B’s leadership team, comprising seasoned professionals from its agricultural division, C & B Ag and senior leaders from other automation companies. Infusing the company with over 70 years of industry knowledge and experience, they were pivotal to some of its strategic acquisitions.

Building on a legacy of trust and a vision set on innovation, C & B’s matchless blend of culture, established relationships and relentless focus on customer needs positions it as the partner of choice for businesses seeking world-class, future-proof solutions.
