Electric forklift technology has been so advanced that the electric forklift can match or even exceed the performance of the conventional internal combustion forklift truck in most applications.

The switch to electric fork lifts can give you significant cost savings when applied properly and you will even experience many other related and sometimes intangible benefits that will improve your business.

The acquisition cost of any new electric forklift is known to be higher than a comparable internal combustion forktruck. However, many people overlook the fact that the battery is really their fuel tank and by purchasing the battery, they have in effect acquired all of the fuel for that truck for the later long years, given the fact that recharging costs are minimal by comparison.

Electric forklifts also come with air filled or optional solid style outside pneumatic tires which was unheard of just years ago. They are also able to work outside in almost all types of weather when properly equipped and properly applied.

The reduction in brake wear technology of electric battery forklift works in such a way where the electric motor of the forklift is used to slow down the truck when the operator backs off the accelerator to slow down or during a direction change which minimizes the amount of time that the operator needs to use the brake pedal. This feature is often found with separately excited motor technology or the new AC technology which is often found in most new electric forklifts today. Regenerative braking technology implies that the deceleration process will put energy from the braking process back into the battery resulting in longer battery run times.

Using electric forklifts means there is no need for propane or diesel fuel storage. Storing these types of fuels on site increases the risk of fire at your facility if they aren’t stored and used properly. Simply having LPG or diesel fuel can sometimes affect insurance rates. Besides, these fuels are required to be stored outside and are subject to vandalism and sometimes city, and environmental regulations.
