Al-Futtaim Toyota Material Handling has announced it has supplied a new line-up of environment-friendly forklift trucks to Al-Futtaim Parts Distribution Hub (PDH) making it the first such delivery to an Al-Futtaim group company.
The lithium-ion battery-operated forklift trucks are currently being used in three shifts at the PDH warehouse located in Dubai Investment Park.
Lithium-ion batteries offer end users a massive reduction in their operating costs and are more environment-friendly than conventional lead-acid batteries as they do not emit any hazardous fumes while charging, according to a corporate press release.
“With these lithium-ion battery-operated forklift trucks, not only are we offering the latest technology but also an environmentally-friendly solution,” remarked Ramez Hamdan, Managing Director–Industrial Equipment.
