Our three new Fork Life Trucks arrive at the foundry in March 2011.

 

As part of our ongoing commitment in offering our customers the very best possible service, we will continue to invest in the modernisation of our foundry property and equipment in 2013.  

In 2008 we opened production Bay No 3 and on the following year we announced the re-opening of Bay No 1. Both will improve our rate of production and reduce casting lead times.

 

 
During March 2011 we replaced 3 of our forklift trucks with new models from Hyster. With improved chargers and low maintenance batteries, the vehicles will aid us in our commitment to reduce our energy consumption levels for this year. ^
