	Inside Forkliftaction.com Contact the Forkliftaction team Anyone who anticipated that the economic slowdown would stifle innovation would struggle to explain the stream of new products in the materials handling sector. We continue to write about equipment enhancements in our Product News items which remain a regular feature of this newsletter, and we’re not short of input.
