Crown takes the gold

In the space of less than a year, a second international design prize has been awarded to Crown's new WT 3000 Series of pallet trucks. The new Crown pallet truck received the prestigious IDEA Gold Award 2011 in the Commercial and Industrial Products category.

Since 1980, the IDSA has awarded the annual International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) for products which stand out in innovation, functionality and user benefits. In 2011 the new WT 3000 Series of pallet trucks developed by Crown collected the highest accolade: an IDEA Gold Award.

The truck's innovative engineering and ergonomics were the key factors in the award. The WT 3000 Series has been designed to withstand the most demanding working conditions in warehouses and loading bays, day after day.
