The BT Lifter Silent hand pallet truck
and BT Levio Silent powered pallet
truck from Toyota have been awarded
the Quiet Mark from the Noise
Abatement Society, which aims to
encourage companies to develop
products with reduced noise.

Toyota says the new BT Lifter
Silent hand pallet truck, with an
operating noise of no more than
60dBA, was awarded the Quiet Mark
for reducing operating sound by up to
20dBA in comparison to a standard
hand pallet truck. Fitted with high
quality rubber steering, Powerthane
bogie wheels, frames fitted with shock
absorbing material to reduce vibration
noise and adjustable rubber studs, the
BT Lifter Silent operates at the
volume of a normal conversation.

The BT Levio Silent powered pallet
truck has also been fitted with shock
absorbing material to reduce vibration
noise and Powerthane wheels
decrease travel noise.
