This week we explore the various energy sources available for forklifts and other material handling equipment that were showcased at LogiMAT in Stuttgart. 

With more than 1,600 stands at the trade show, including some very large and elaborate presentations, there were a lot of new products on display. 

Many deals were done at LogiMAT, with one exhibitor signing a contract with a dealer in the middle of an interview with Forkliftaction!

The exhibition was not the only place that deals were being done. This week's news includes not one but three acquisitions in the materials handling space.
