Vetter showcases its BigForks
Vetter showcases its BigForks

Greek philosopher Heraclitus is credited with the famous saying “change is the only constant”, and this week’s Forkliftaction News demonstrates this is certainly true in the case of the materials handling sector.

This week we report on the launch of a new electric telehandler from JLG, an E-hybrid RTG from Konecranes and the opening of Hangcha’s new office in Malaysia.

We also look at some new appointments in our Movers & Shakers, the delivery of more STS cranes to a new Egyptian port and the latest BigForks product to be developed by VETTER Forks.

It’s hard not to wonder what the innovative ancient Greeks would make of the technology which is changing so quickly, it’s almost hard to keep up.
