Zero-emission forklifts

Cargotec has supplied 17 electric forklifts from its Kalmar ECF50-90 - Pro Future range to Ford Motor Company. One Kalmar ECF90-6 and two ECF70-6 models have been delivered to Ford's Craiova Assembly plant in Romania with a further 14 forklifts to be delivered to Ford Germany's Cologne facility shortly.

Emissions are an important consideration for organisations such as Ford Motor Company, with the health and safety of its workforce and stringent environmental policies at the forefront of decision making. The Kalmar electric forklift series, which is capable of handling loads from 5 to 9 tonnes, is part of Cargotec's already long list of Pro Future solutions, which have passed certain industryleading criteria regarding power source, energy efficiency, carbon efficiency, local emissions and recyclability.
