What is a high lift pallet truck?

A highlifter pallet truck (manual model - see below for the electric model),also known as a scissor lift pallet truck, is designed to enhance productivity and safety in all operational settings. A high lift pallet truck is essential for your warehouse. But what is it and why do you need one? Please read this article to find out…

With the ability to lift up to 800mm, our range of Highlifters are perfect for production lines and warehouses where reducing the risk of injury from bending and twisting is crucial.

They are an integral piece of equipment that will help to lift and move pallets and goods around warehouses. Really, you may think of them as a simplified forklift truck.

A high lift pallet truck can raise a pallet up to a safe working height without exertion. This reduces the need for operators to twist or bend to handle heavy loads. They can either be manual or electrically powered (see below).

Pallet trucks are the backbone of material handling in warehouses, factories and distribution centres. These essential tools make the movement of heavy loads faster and more efficient. But like any piece of equipment, pallet trucks have a finite lifespan. With the right care and attention, however, you can significantly extend that lifespan, saving your business from costly replacements or downtime.

In this post, we’ll explore what impacts the longevity of pallet trucks and how regular maintenance, combined with access to high-quality spare parts, can keep them performing at their best for years to come.
