Manitou Wharehouse Forklift San Jose

These days a lot of corporations are trying to be as environmentally responsible as possible. There are demanding cleaner products to use in their place of business. In order to meet these expectations, lift truck corporations and their suppliers are considering alternative fuel ideas and cleaner burning energy sources.



Technology is now able to help manufacturers make units which when compare to their IC or internal combustion counterparts use less overall energy, reduce carbon footprints and cost less to operate. These new designs are creating an obvious shift within the forklift market. Numerous manufacturers have since been encouraged to invest more into the research and development of these emerging equipment.



Roughly 60 percent of today's lift truck market is represented by electric units. This is up from roughly 45 percent around 20 years ago. Increasingly more businesses and corporations are enjoying lower operating expenses by choosing electric. Like for instance, the cost efficiency alone when it comes to the costs of maintenance and fuel save companies thousands of dollars. The electric models in comparison to IC models, offer a longer life to the fleet and the less emissions within the facility allow people working indoors a much better air quality.



Less Emissions: There is a better overall improvement in operating condition as these units do not emit carbons and carcinogens. This has resulted in better health for all employees working near forklifts.



Reduced Expenses: The less heat and fewer moving parts translate to lower overall operating costs.



Less Fuel Costs: When properly taken care of and maintained, batteries and chargers cost significantly less than Liquid Propane models and the electric units offer better costs and more stability.



Improved Operator Ergonomics: There is much vibration and heat produced by IC or internal combustion Engines. Both of these situations could greatly result in operator fatigue.
