Kooi telescopic forks prove versatile for racking and loading

When Kooi Forks are used in conjunction with double deep racking systems, the warehouse capacity can be increased by 40% compared to “single deep” warehouse operations, which is of course a great saving and a more economical alternative to building expansion or relocation.

However, throughout Europe the Kooi Forks are just as likely to be supplied for the specific use of loading/unloading of vehicles, trains and trailers. The operation of loading/unloading becomes that much safer and more efficient for several reasons. There is a significant reduction in the movement of the forklift truck and the vehicle and as we all know a high percentage of work related accidents within the forklift truck industry involve moving trucks/vehicles.

There is also the added bonus of a faster turnaround of vehicles because loading/unloading takes place completely from one side, in turn this can reduce lift truck fuel bills by half.

Costly damage to vehicle beds can be eliminated; the necessity to drag the load across the vehicle bed is removed with the use of the extending Kooi, and this also provides a safer operation.
