15E does the job of two forklifts

One of the first UK companies to take delivery of Aisle-Master's new narrow chassis 15E model is poster supplier GB eye. The 15E has replaced two other forklifts for much more efficient handling in its newly extended distribution centre in Sheffield. The previous combination of a man down rail guided VNA forklift and a reach truck was cumbersome and restrictive, particularly as the VNA truck could not be used for outdoor work. Operations manager John Scally chopse a more versatile vehicle.

“The downtime we experienced with the old trucks had a serious impact on our productivity.We have been using an Aisle-Master very effectively in another part of the warehouse for two years, but this model was too wide to fit in this part of the warehouse. The compact dimensions of the 15E make it the perfect solution,” he says.
