The technology of Battery/Electric forklifts is available now! Converting to Electric Forklifts and Industrial Equipment by 2025 in California will help meet the Federal and State Air Quality, Climate & Zero-Emission Goals. Electric forklifts that currently qualify are Class 1-3 = counterbalanced, narrow-aisle, pallet jacks & walkies. Learn more about the Zero Emission Forklift Program and implementation plan.
Cost of electricity can be significantly lower than that of fuel. Up to 80% lower. Electric forklifts also charge at a charging station or outlet, so there is no need for fuel storage on site.
New lithium-ion batteries run longer, recharge faster, and require less recharging overall. The cold storage industry is the most common user of LiBs because of lithium’s ability to perform in a wide range of temperatures and environments. But it’s really ready to use in any type of application that operates equipment more than 1 shift a day.
Electric forklifts are Quieter than propane trucks, they Increase Safety and Efficiency, and there are no operation noises except for the back-up alarm.
Improve Employee Health, less harm to products, and operate at zero emissions. Since Electric forklifts produce zero emissions during operation, it is the #1 choice for the consumer-driven food and beverage industry. Because the electric lift can safely maneuver narrow aisles, handle heavy loads at high heights, and perform well with zero emissions, regardless of warehouse temperatures.
Electrics require about 40% less maintenance, your total cost of ownership is less than propane. Electric forklifts do not require engine oil or coolant fluids, so servicing and replacing/disposing of these fluids is also not necessary. Which results in Longer maintenance intervals for the forklift, saving you time and money.
Electric forklifts are more maneuverable and have better visibility. They are powerful and come in a variety of models that can do the same job as an IC Forklift in a similar environment. Learn more from our Toyota Forklift Showroom to Choose from the following: (see image below)
Receive quarterly payments based on the electricity used by forklifts and other material handling equipment (MHE). Learn more on our Smart Rebates page.
Toyota’s Electric Pneumatic Forklift maintains clean air and low maintenance, but supports powerful, outdoor, traditionally IC applications. An all-electric option for both indoor and outdoor use. Learn more about the 80V Electric Pneumatic Forklift.
