PALL-EX RENEWS CNG FLEET WITH BARLOWORLD
22 December 2009
Continuing a partnership that has stretched back over 10 years, Pall-Ex has taken delivery of a new fleet of 40 CNG powered forklifts from Barloworld . We are now operating our 3rd generation of Hyster fork trucks which work intensely day and night.
The new fleet of Hyster H2.0FT Fortens Advance 2,000kg capacity trucks are powered using Compressed Natural Gas, continuing our environmental commitments. The trucks can be filled in less than 2 minutes therefore also minimising health and safety risks. Barloworld have fitted Continental’s CSEasy tyres which are proven to last 3 times longer than standard tyres with lower roll resistance, giving greater fuel efficiency.
Operations Director, Fraser MacNeill, said: “Our fork lift trucks represent an intrinsic part of the Pall-Ex operation which functions 24 hours a day and is an extremely demanding environment. We operate the only cross-docking hub in this sector and rely completely on the performance of the forklift fleet in a tough, intense and time sensitive operation”.
