Uniform standard
Linde Material Handling restructures its range of used forklift trucks
Tested used forklift trucks from Linde Material Handling can now be upgraded with ten different function packages for specific applications.
According to the "mix and match" principle, customers only choose the equipment and service packages they need. The basis for this is always the uniform, high reconditioning standard "Approved Trucks". This new concept replaces the previous "Plus", "Super" and "Ultra" reconditioning levels.
"In order to ensure the uniformly high quality standard we specify, we attach great importance to the perfect history of the used trucks," emphasizes Simon Thevenet, Senior Manager UT & STR. Only the industrial trucks retreaded in Linde reconditioning centers receive the "Approved Trucks" quality seal. They form the extensive stock of Linde used trucks from which interested parties can select individual models or entire fleets.
Anyone who wants to can now upgrade their device further and initially choose from a total of ten different equipment and service packages. "Internal evaluations have shown that these options are in particularly high demand," explains Thevenet. Individually or in combination, the vehicles can be adapted to individual, application-specific requirements. The packages range from safety, ergonomics and energy to service and extended warranties. They all aim to increase the efficiency and productivity of operations. Fleet operators who choose the "Safety Pack", for example, receive features tailored to the respective vehicle model. For counterbalance trucks, these include the "BlueSpot" warning light, the visually striking "Orange Belt" safety belt and a panoramic interior mirror. The "Driver Pack" includes a completely refurbished workstation with floor mat, upholstery for the seat and armrest and new rubber coating for the joystick and gas pedal pedals. With the "Energy Pack", fleet managers acquire a new traction battery, while the "Color Pack" enables individual colouring in all RAL tones. Various service packages ensure full service of the energy system, include regular and predictive maintenance or extend the warranty period. All additional functions are based on the latest Linde technology, which is also used in the latest new appliances. The equipment is configured at short notice and delivered directly to the customer company.
