Manufacturers face steel and tyre supply difficulties

News Story - 12 May 2005

Forkliftaction.com News emailed forklift manufacturers to ask how the current steel and tyre supply difficulties were affecting their businesses. We asked two questions: We have learnt about a delay in the supply of industrial tyres. Your comment? How is the current steel supply and tyre supply affecting your business? Here is an edited selection of their comments: "It's not only tyres but everything, even ... glass. We have placed orders with our suppliers a year in advance for tyres and power trains. "Steel is affecting everyone, so that's the good news. We have tried to absorb some of the cost and pass on the difference. However our machines are still selling strongly so we have no choice but to go into full production - it also helps the cost by running at full capacity since the machines are all sold in advance." Greg Pannia, Omega Lift Manufacturing Inc operating manager "We can't promise customers a specific brand, if required, at all times. "Higher cost of production, some steel qualities up to 100%!!!" Bjorn Fritzell, SMV Konecranes sales director "Procurement of steel has been difficult recently but, being a good customer to steel mills for STS and RTGs, it does not affect the "big lifts" production at all. Tyres are another matter, most well-known brands (ie Bridgestone, Simex, Yokohama) have their year's production full. We have been working closely with Simex and have our year 2005 and 2006 production covered." Jimmy Lozada, Fantuzzi product manager Click here to read more comments.
