These days, businesses want a sustainable MHE solution. They put in place strict ESG standards. It’s vital to meet them. Invariably, it makes sense to go electric. For Algeco, making the switch mitigates its environment impact.
Challenges
Previously, Algeco operated more than 100 IC engine forklifts. Across 30 sites, there were two key issues. High running costs and downtime.
Sustainable MHE solution
So, how to combat this? Algeco’s preferred supplier BJB Lift Trucks conducted a full analysis. This incorporated an investigation into carbon neutrality. There was a review of the equipment marketplace. How to power the trucks was an essential consideration.
Service contract
Yet, the MHE is only part of the story. Increasingly, busy logistics businesses demand quality service support. A contract tailored to individual requirements minimises downtime. It’s a key part of our sustainable materials handling solution for Algeco.
