Sustainable solutions to optimise your warehouse

Materials-handling specialist Combilift is thrilled to return to LogiMAT to showcase its safe, space-saving materials-handling solutions, with a special focus on sustainability and electric operation.

In today’s fast-paced environment, where both space and time are valuable resources, maximising storage capacity and speeding up material handling procedures can significantly enhance efficiency. Additionally, sustainability has become a top priority for businesses around the globe.

Combilift’s CEO and Co-Founder Martin McVicar explains: “Sustainability is at our core – we’re highly focused on making our vehicles more environmentally friendly and helping our customers maximise their warehouse efficiency.”

The Irish manufacturer offers a wide range of products, including multidirectional forklifts like the C-Series and Combi-CB, the articulated Aisle Master, pedestrian stackers, powered pallet trucks, and Straddle Carriers. With a focus on greener technologies, 98% of R&D investment is in energy-efficient and electric equipment, now making up over 70% of production. Visitors at Combilift’s stand during LogiMAT can experience its electric range firsthand.

Martin McVicar further explains: “Almost every model in our extensive range of products is now available with electric power. The ever-increasing lift capacities will answer the demand for more powerful products, which at the same time help companies to achieve their aims for more sustainable operations.”

Besides using electric power, optimising your warehouse space is essential for making material-handling operations more sustainable. It’s important to explore space-saving strategies to enhance your existing facilities before considering expansion or relocation during periods of growth—essentially, “improving, not moving.” Combilift has a team of very experienced design engineers who can provide your company with a free-of-charge warehouse design and layout service. This service demonstrates how warehouse space can be configured according to the capabilities of Combilift’s products. By narrowing the aisles and implementing higher racking, companies can increase their storage capacity by up to 50% and avoid the high costs associated with relocating and building a new facility. Additionally, using Combilift’s versatile trucks, which can operate both indoors and outdoors, minimises the number of forklifts required, decreases energy consumption, and ultimately reduces the carbon footprint.
