SUMMERVILLE, SC – KION North America makes another addition to their product portfolio of powered industrial lift trucks. This time, we welcome the Linde Series 1293 to the North American market. This series includes models E20BHP and E25BHP, electric counterbalance forklifts with 4,000 – 5,000 lb. capacity, and both powered by Linde Li-ION batteries. The next generation of material handling equipment across the world includes power sources such as this, proving an important balance between sustainable energy and energy efficiency. That means businesses don’t skip a beat when adopting more environmentally conscious practices.
Developing trucks for the future means more than equipping the truck with an electric energy source. Linde Material Handling takes it a step further by engineering these models to compete where electric counterbalance forklifts typically cannot. After rigorous international standards testing, the Linde Series 1293 stands together with traditional internal combustion forklifts in day-to-day outdoor applications. The water-resistant design opens the door to outdoor stacking, storage, and transport. Like other Linde counterbalance trucks, the E20BHP and E25BHP have an ultra-durable, one-piece steer axle which greatly improves durability while driving over bumpy and uneven terrain.
“The Linde 1293 is adaptable to a wide range of applications and customer types,” said Jena-Christine Lawrence, Director of Product Management & Product Strategy. “The E20BHP and E25BHP are powered by Linde lithium-ion batteries, and combine sustainable power with exceptional performance, making these models the ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor applications. We are proud to deliver another solution to North America that not only meets the evolving needs of our customers, but also contributes to a greener and more efficient future.”
