In recent years, global forklift manufacturers have made efforts in the field of new energy. Electric forklifts have been continuously improved in terms of equipment performance, battery performance, environmental protection and energy saving. In Europe, America, Japan and other developed countries, the use of electric forklifts has exceeded 60%.
Electric forklifts are more environmentally friendly and healthier According to calculations, the pollutant emission of a normal working internal combustion forklift is 40 times that of a car. The internal combustion engine is one of the main culprits of environmental pollution and its exhaust gas causes great damage to the atmosphere, the environment and human health. Electric forklifts have the advantages of low noise, low vibration and no exhaust gas. The ergonomic design of the vehicle body can reduce the fatigue strength for the forklift driver and bring a more comfortable operating experience.
More and more warehouse operators and logistics companies are choosing to import forklifts from China — and it makes sense. China builds close to half of all forklifts sold globally, and prices run 30–50% below what you'd pay for a Japanese or European brand with similar specs.
