Customised and speciality baggage carts

EXPRESSO is known in the market for its ability to supply special baggage carts, various options and customised solutions for individual requirements.

Our escalator baggage carts combine the convenience and manoeuvrability of a standard baggage cart with the safety features required for use on escalators, whilst the basket panel can provide for additional advertising space.

We can also supply individual coloured plastic parts for your CI or that of your advertising partner, and a dual-swivel castor that ensures safe and easy crossing of rails, slots, uneven surfaces, etc.

True to the motto, "We win by being different", EXPRESSO, in addition to our high-quality baggage carts, offers a multiplicity of related management systems for airports around the world. These systems assure the cart concession operator that every need for a successful and profitable operation will be met.

Our baggage cart management systems include a localisation system for baggage carts and other moveable objects, a depot data management system, a baggage cart maintenance system, a passenger flow organisation system, and an anti-theft protection system.

Advertising systems for baggage carts

The AdCart is the first choice if you want to make a profit from 'rolling billboards'; it comes designed with your individual corporate identity:

• All plastic parts can be supplied in your desired colours (RAL)
• Additional advertising side rails in your colour (RAL) can easily be clipped on
• Large advertising panel and up to two basket panels are available for your further graphic designs

Another new, very simple to use and effective advertising system is our quick exchange advertising panel. It enables the exchange in shorter periods, making the panels easier to let and rates per time-period higher.
