Winning combination
The TERGO URS turret truck from UniCarriers – a hybrid of narrow-aisle and reach truck – has won the International Forklift Truck of the Year (IFOY) award in the category of ‘storage technology equipment’, beating four other entries in the category. The award was presented on 5th May at the BMW museum in Munich, on the edge of the CeMATtransport logistics trade fair.
The TERGO URS is a reach truck with swivel reach forks for use in narrow aisles. The equipment proved itself in extensive tests, in which all nominated forklifts were assessed according to various criteria such as innovation value, technology, design, ergonomics, safety and sustainability.
The jury particularly praised the pioneering ergonomic concept and easy manoeuvrability of the TERGO URS. The forklift has the smallest turning circle in its vehicle class and offers the user a comfortable workplace with optimal all-round visibility.
