Makita U.S.A., Inc., manufacturer of high-quality professional tools, outdoor power equipment and accessories, has launched the new MAKTRAK™ Modular Storage System. MAKTRAK™ is designed, engineered, and manufactured in the U.S.A. with global materials, and has a range of unique features including a horizontal design that redefines the category.

"Users across the country told us about their many challenges with the vertical-first design-based modular storage systems that are ubiquitous in the market today, and we listened," said Andrew Camp, director of product management, accessories, Makita U.S.A., Inc. "Driven by this clear user feedback, we designed and engineered a horizontal-first design-based modular storage system that addresses their challenges and brings to market a product range that we believe is a transformative solution that creates tremendous user value. Researched, designed, engineered, and manufactured in the U.S.A., MAKTRAK is the next generation in modular storage."

Transportation is a primary function of a modular storage system. MAKTRAK™ has 9" all terrain job site rugged wheels for easy movement, whether it's through a job site or across finished flooring. And the intentional horizontal box design combined with the unique handle design that retracts enables a single user to load and unload their MAKTRAK™ into a truck bed.

"Difficulty loading and unloading into the truck bed is a common frustration with vertical base systems. Users frequently dismantle their systems to load each unit separately. Leaving the tool boxes scattered takes more space and makes it difficult to work from the truck." said Austin Donoghue, product manager, accessories, Makita U.S.A., Inc.

"The innovative handle grips allow a contractor to conveniently load and unload their system without the hassle of disconnecting boxes. And depending on the stacking configuration it will fit under most truck bed covers for added security. Whether working from the truck or traveling from shop to job site, MAKTRAK™ transforms the pick-up truck into a tool of the trade."

There are additional features that are unique to the category. MAKTRAK™ gives users the ability to open storage boxes and get tools and accessories without unstacking. The dual-hinging lids allow access from both sides, and the innovative horizontal design means the handle won't get in the way. In addition, the horizontal design yields more storage space. This means MAKTRAK™ can accommodate larger tools like nailers, saws and rotary hammers. At the same time, the shallow depth allows improved accessibility.
