One of the most significant developments in forklift truck technology for years has been unveiled by Jungheinrich.
 Following trials its lithium ion battery-powered electric pallet truck, EJE 112i, is now in production and available to order.
The firm makes the point that Li-ion technology offers significant environmental and productivity benefits over lead acid.
For example, the battery pack weighs just 14kg, so no lifting gear is required.
Equally, charging is quick and simple, taking only 30 minutes to deliver a 50% charge (80 minutes, fully charged), enabling more flexible truck utilisation.
