PALFINGER has released the FLM 15, a compact middle-seat truck-mounted forklift developed to meet the unique requirements of beverage and retail logistics.

The latest addition to the FL range, which is now available to order in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, is suitable for applications in which strength, efficiency, and precise handling are important.

Featuring a compact design, combined with the lowest weight in its class (starting at 1,420 kg without forks), it performs particularly well in confined work areas.

Its sensitive drive system and responsive controls make the FLM 15 a suitable transport solution for fragile goods such as glass bottles. Its compact mast and optimised front wheels enable maximum control when moving loads.

“We listen to our customers very closely and consistently integrate their requirements into our product development,” says Gerhard Auer, VP product line special lifting solutions at PALFINGER.

“The FLM 15 is the result: lightweight, efficient, and reliable. It combines controlled operation, low weight and maximum availability, making it precisely tailored to the needs of retail and beverage businesses.”

This latest release follows the release, in September 2025, of its FLM25 forklift. 

With its extensive portfolio, PALFINGER says it is strengthening its position as a provider for truck-mounted forklifts in all categories. it offers side-seat and middle-seat models, on both standard and four-way versions, diesel, and fully electric power units, as well as remote-controlled and box-mounted models.
