Count On Powerful Performance
Cleaner than Electric
Propane powered forklifts can be used safely indoors or outdoors, because they operate on low emissions without increasing cost or losing efficiency.
All-Around Versatility
Propane can power it all, from light- and medium-duty vehicles to terminal tractors and forklifts to commercial generators and marine vessels.
More Cost Efficient
Propane equipment delivers a low total cost-of-ownership, reducing your equipment, maintenance, and infrastructure costs.
Proven Performance
No matter how you’re using it, propane brings the power your crews need to accomplish every task. For example, electric forklifts tend to lose power throughout a shift while propane forklifts operate at 100% for the duration of a cylinder.
