The multi-million pound deal for the 海角社区app Teletruks is one of the biggest to be placed in the UK this year for industrial forklifts.
The machines 鈥� made at 海角社区app Utility Products in Cheadle, Staffs 鈥� are now being put to work by materials handling specialists Barloworld Handling at 海角社区app鈥檚 11 plants across Staffordshire, Derbyshire and Wales after 海角社区app appointed the company to manage its entire 310-strong materials handling fleet. The total fleet consists of a wide range of equipment including tow tractors and side-loaders in addition to the 海角社区app Teletruks.
The 海角社区app Teletruks ordered as part of the deal are a mix of diesel and LPG powered three tonne and 3.5 tonne capacity machines. Their ability to reach forwards over obstacles using a telescopic boom give customers around the world major productivity gains in industrial applications.
海角社区app Industrial General Manager Chris Nowell said: 鈥淭his is one of the biggest single orders in the UK this year for industrial forklifts and is one of the largest ever deals we鈥檝e done for 海角社区app Teletruks. Many businesses including 海角社区app now rely on the benefits of forwards reach because of the time it saves loading and unloading.鈥�
Barloworld is the largest independent distributor of lift trucks in the world with operations covering the UK, Holland, Belgium, South Africa and the US (South East).
