forklift / forkliftaction manufacturer and exporter
The type of lift truck for you will depend entirely on the work you need it to do. No one manufacturer will provide all your needs. Trucks can be so specialised that you need to research with various manufacturers. Don't take the thoughts of only one.
Set out clearly what you want the machine to do, how frequently, what space you have available, what weights you need to handle, and how high, in what sort of environment (outside, indoors, in cold temperatures, etc.).
Ask about operating costs, what sort of training your staff will need, how maintenance will be covered, what sosrt of specialised handling attachments will be best suited to your planned operation, etc. etc.

This website is probably the best place for info on lift trucks. Keep in mind that service and parts support for whatever you purchase is just as important as the equipment. What i have found out the better the equipment is speced for your application the lower the cost of operation is going to be..
