Anhui Forklift Group Corporation, maker of HELI equipment, recently celebrated its 60th anniversary at an event at its headquarters in Hefei, China.

The event, themed as "more HELI, more future", included a comprehensive review of the history of its 60-year development.

The ceremony also featured the arrival of the millionth HELI forklift, which was delivered to a representative of Shanghai International Port Group Co, a strategic customer of HELI products in its key construction projects.

Dejin Zhang, president of Anhui Forklift Group Corporation, charted HELI's efforts to establish itself as the best-known Chinese brand in the international industrial vehicle market. He cited not only the company's manufacturing capability, but its R&D efforts aimed at "bringing brand-new products and services to clients".

"In the next 60 years, HELI will continue working together to move forward to achieve ... creative, collaborative, eco-friendly ... and ... further splendid achievements," he told guests.

HELI used its celebrations to launch its fifth-generation products, including the new G3 series range. HELI intelligent G3 series forklifts have been designed with the Internet of Things and big data in mind.
