articulated forklift and an order picker for versatile operation in storerooms and warehousing facilities. A main feature is its low level step-through operator compartment with a height of just 280mm. Convenient, single step access from both sides of the truck speeds up order picking compared to the operator having to get in and out from a seated position. Combilift’s products are designed to save space in storage and production areas and have proved to be invaluable during the pandemic when manufacturers needed to keep up production levels while ensuring the social distancing of employees. The Combilift team will be at stand 6-170 at the MACH show at the Birmingham NEC.

IRISH materials handling specialist Combilift will be returning to the exhibition circuit to showcase some of the new models it has developed over the last couple of years. The latest innovations, which will be presented at MACH from 4-8 April 2022, are in line with growing demand for cleaner, greener operation, which is the focus in Combilift’s R&D department. “We made our first electric multi- directional C-Series model over 18 years ago, and now over 60 per cent of the trucks we manufacture are electric,” said Combilift CEO Martin McVicar. “As more and more of our customers are opting for electric power it is obvious that they are as committed to sustainability as we are,” he added. The new multidirectional Combi- XLE, which was launched in autumn 2021, combines quiet, emission-free operation with powerful performance

and lift capacities of up to 5t for tough working environments. It features high ground clearance, large cushioned front and rear tyres and a spacious cab, allowing smooth operation on semi rough terrain, while offering a high level of driver comfort. A further innovation is the new Aisle Master-OP (AME-OP) – a stand-on electric powered model that combines the advantages of a narrow aisle
