Get Powerful Indoor and Outdoor Performance with Propane Forklifts

Propane forklifts are providing 100 percent power, inside and out, for better productivity.

Propane continues to lead in materials handling for good reason. It operates more cleanly than other energy options, so it can operate indoors and outdoors to increase productivity. It also performs more powerfully than electric.

Compared with gasoline, propane forklifts reduce SOx emissions by 15 percent, NOx emissions by 17 percent, and greenhouse gas emissions by 16 percent. Propane is also a cleaner choice compared with electric — it reduces 76 percent fewer SOx emissions than electric.

Businesses interested in minimizing their environmental impact should also consider the site-to-source emissions produced to bring electric forklifts to market. The manufacturing and transportation of batteries for electric models has a significant effect on the environment.

Businesses with electric forklifts often don’t realize the tradeoff they’re making in productivity. As soon as an electric forklift begins working, it starts losing efficiency. Propane forklifts deliver 100 percent power for the duration of each cylinder.

And when it’s time to refuel, operators simply switch out a cylinder and get back to work. Electric forklifts may take hours to recharge, impacting overall productivity.
