Raising the bar with 4-way forklift

Logistics company, Howard Tenens, has been able to pass on substantial cost savings to a major client by replacing counterbalance trucks with a bespoke combination of a Combilift 4-way forklift and cantilever racking at its facility in Sharpness, Gloucestershire. The LPG powered 4t capacity Combilift has been fitted with a number of features to make the handling of the long cylindrical product (which is delivered either boxed or loose) safer and easier for operators: the tapered platform design gives extra stability to the loose bars when they are being offloaded and transferred to the racking and a 7m removable spreader bar prevents any flexing of the longest lengths.
