What is a heavy lift truck?
A heavy lift truck is an industrial truck designed to handle loads of 10 to as much as 16 tons or more to lift and move. Their robust construction, strong mast and powerful drive system make them suitable for the most demanding industries. You often find heavy lift trucks in the steel industry, wood and sheet metal processing, construction, ports and transshipment companies.
Where a standard lift truck stops, the heavy lift truck offers stability, lift height and durability to perform reliably even under extreme conditions.

Why choose a heavy-duty forklift?
Companies that handle heavy goods need a forklift that can do more than standard models. The advantages of a heavy-duty forklift are:
- Higher carrying capacity: safe lifting of heavy goods without risk of overloading.
- Stability: wide wheelbase and robust mast provide maximum balance.
- Sustainability: resistant to intensive and long-term use.
- Flexibility: suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, depending on the version.
These trucks not only save time and labor costs, but also increase workplace safety by allowing heavy loads to be moved in a controlled and efficient manner.

What to look for when choosing a heavy-duty forklift?
A heavy-duty forklift is an investment that you need to carefully align with your business processes. Important factors to consider are:
- Carrying capacity and lifting height: how heavy are the loads and to what height should they be placed?
- Work Environment: Do you work in a warehouse, outdoor area or port? This determines the drive train and tire choice.
