One of India’s leading business conglomerates, Godrej & Boyce, has announced that its Material Handling business division has launched India’s first Multi-Ion Li-ion (Lithium-ion) forklift. This will boost production, logistics, and warehousing processes by ensuring rapid growth, dependability, and sustainable energy solutions. Designed completely by engineers, this forklift boasts a long operational lifespan. It reduces ownership costs by up to 25%, ensures longer uptime, and provides cleaner industrial operations.
India’s industrial and corporate sectors are maintaining a powerful momentum in the warehousing market. In the first quarter of 2023, more than 11 million square feet of space was leased across the country, showing significant development in sectors like 3PL (Third-Party Logistics), FMCG, and E-commerce. As the demand for modernizing supply chains grows, warehouses are expanding rapidly. The faster the movement of goods and operations in a warehouse, the higher its productivity and performance.
To address these needs safely and sustainably for the future, the Material Handling division has introduced this solution. The multi-ion lithium-ion forklift charges quickly according to opportunity-charging needs, requires zero maintenance, and provides high energy efficiency. Designed to work in ambient temperatures up to 45°C, this forklift is perfectly suited for India’s harsh climate.
