What is a forklift?
A forklift is an industrial truck designed to lift, move and stack heavy loads. Thanks to forks or custom attachments, a forklift can handle a variety of materials ranging from pallets and containers to specific goods such as bags, barrels or paper rolls.
Lift trucks are used in virtually every sector: from warehouses and distribution centers to production sites and outdoor areas. Thanks to the variety of drives (electric, diesel or LPG) and versions, there is always a model to suit your operations.
