There are several pieces of equipment that support the production processes on farms and agricultural centers. Whether for use indoors or outdoors, forklifts are one of the pieces of equipment that brings the most practicality, convenience and agility for small, medium and large companies.
In order for you to learn more about the benefits of using forklifts for business logistics, we will discuss throughout this article the high points that the use of the equipment brings. Read on to find out more!
Forklift Types:
On the market there are different types of forklifts available. In this article, we will cover combustion forklifts (powered by LPG, gasoline and diesel) and electric ones.
It’s interesting to know that between these two types there are some differences indeed. Knowing them is a great help when you are looking for the ideal forklift for your business.
Combustion forklifts work based on burning fuels and, from that, generate a series of explosions that allow the engine to start and the forklift to function properly.
On the side of the electric forklifts, they work through batteries.
Agility in Processes:
To start talking about the benefits of using forklifts, nothing better than starting from the most obvious: the agility in business processes.
As forklifts are compact equipment, they can be maneuvered with ease. Thanks to its structure, the equipment makes it easy to reach and organize products and boxes on shelves, whether they are in high or low places.
Why this is a benefit becomes clear when we look at older and more archaic methods of organizing inventories. Imagine if we still depended on purely menial jobs! Each task would take longer and cost more to complete.
Use in multiple Environments:
At first, it is common to associate the use of forklifts with closed environments, such as the interiors of sheds and warehouses. However, as here in Brazil and, consequently, in Cuiabá, we have a tropical climate, the use of equipment outdoors is also a reality.
This fact helps you to limit yourself less and less. With the right forklift, you will be able to manage your business operations both inside and outside, literally.
Pollutants and Noise:
The benefit in terms of pollutants and noise comes through the use of electric forklifts. As they are battery-powered, they end up emitting zero pollutants into the atmosphere — which makes their use indoors much more comfortable and easier. With them, you don’t worry about clouds of smoke filling the room.
In addition, electric forklifts also emit less noise, as they do not depend on an engine to run.
Another saving comes in the sense that electric forklifts do not need a tank to store fuel. This factor can even influence the amount you pay — if that’s your case — for your facility’s insurance.
