Last week, we welcomed Jacob to Advanced Handling for two weeks of work experience 👏

It’s been great having him as part of the Marketing team, giving him an insight into the industry and helping him gain hands-on experience with a range of marketing activities.

Here’s what Jacob had to say about his time with us: ⬇️

“The environment was incredibly positive and made it so much easier to work in and made me feel very comfortable. In my experience, I learnt a lot of useful things that I know will help me in the future. I enjoyed everything about my experience at Advanced Handling, it was something that I have never properly seen or experienced before so it was different and challenging, but I enjoyed every second of it.”

Thank you Jacob, for all your hard work over the last two weeks - we wish you all the best for the future! 🙌

The UK are the 4th biggest tea drinkers in the world and at Advanced Handling, as proud Made in Britain manufacturers, we all love to drink a proper cup of tea ☕️

Yesterday we celebrated International Tea Day and we thought it was only right to branch out from the classic British brew and try teas with some very different herbal varieties.

Safe to say… opinions from our tea were strong.

The real question: ⬇️

Which one would be/is your favourite?

The Hidden Danger Lurking in Your Warehouse ❌⬇️

Your AV kit might be built for the road, but the damage often starts at home.

• Scuffed flight cases.
• Cracked LED panels.
• Worn-out cables from bad lifts.

It doesn’t take a huge drop to cause expensive damage - just daily wear and tear from stairs, poor access and manual handling.

👀 If your team is still dragging gear up stairs or loading by hand, it’s worth asking: Could we be doing this smarter?

We’ve released a short guide that walks through how AV companies are levelling up their internal handling, without forklift licences or warehouse redesigns.

Your AV gear might be built for the road, but damage often happens before It leaves your building. Whether it’s a cracked LED panel, a dented flight case, or damage to a screen, the warehouse is one of the most overlooked risk zones in your operation.
