As authorised distributors for global leading brands including HUBTEX, Bendi, Drexel, Bulmor, Systraplan and Hoppecke, HUBTEX Australia can provide tailored materials handling solutions specific to your requirements through a comprehensive offering built up of Multi-directional forklifts, sideloaders, VNA Forklifts, articulated forklifts, narrow aisle trucks and innovative motive power solutions. “You should also consider how the change will affect your forklift operators,” warns Casey. “If they work outside, a decreased speed will keep them in the elements longer.” Forklift Safety: More Than Forklift Travel Speed. While speed can be a factor in a forklift accident, other reasons often play a bigger role in the incident.

“Each of these dealerships bring decades of industry experience, a dedication to customer service, and values of integrity and accountability,” said Terry Rains, director of BYD North America's Forklift Division. “Together, we can help customers get the job done with clean, efficient, and affordable solutions.”
BYD’s material handling equipment simplifies operations by delivering a single-battery multi-shift solution. Spare batteries, cooling down batteries, and battery swapping are a thing of the past. BYD forklifts charge to full in under 90 minutes and run for up to 15-plus hours. When using opportunity charging, on breaks and downtime, your operation can truly run for 24 hours without thinking about batteries.
Unlike lead-acid batteries, and some “drop-in” lithium-ion batteries, BYD’s iron phosphate batteries feature high energy density while remaining environmentally friendly. There is no need for special ventilation requirements, watering infrastructure, or corrosion control.

A first in the industry, BYD also offers a 110v/15-amp plug-in charger capable of recharging its iron phosphate batteries. Because the iron-phosphate battery handles opportunity charging easily, you can even plug it in like you would your cell phone.
