Are you thinking of going electric, or having a healthy mix in your fleet? Electric counterbalance forklift trucks can positively impact your TCO, have a greater residual capacity and are more environmentally friendly than their internal combustion engine counterparts.
Investing in a forklift fleet is no simple procedure. With the wide and ever-increasing volume of forklift trucks on the market, how can you know which ones are the right choice for you?
You will likely find yourself querying key factors such as the condition of the vehicle - is it used, new, or refurbished, and considering whether you want to buy, rent or hire. But there are other, very important factors to take into account, namely; do you choose an electric counterbalance forklift or an internal combustion (IC) Engine?
In this article, we’re going to discuss these two primary options and how they fare in terms of sustainability, cost, downtime, size, comfort, and noise pollution. This direct comparison will help you to gain a deeper insight into the advantages and disadvantages of each forklift truck and decide which is the best option for your material handling operations.
Battery-powered counterbalance trucks are really nothing new for internal operations – they’ve been the standard choice for decades, due to their quietness and lack of emissions.
