Scalable, stackable support for operators
Forklift operator assist solutions
From lights and alarms to alerts and interventions, our range allows you to find the best lift truck operator assistance for your safety journey.
Cost pressures and shrinking margins, coupled with labor shortages and growing safety concerns, are creating major challenges for producers and distributors of water, soda, juice, beer, wine, spirits and other beverages. At the same time, a surge in drink SKUs and greater packaging variety are pushing traditional material handling and storage systems to their limits.
From production and bottling lines to the warehouse dock and last mile delivery, Yale has lift trucks and solutions to keep your beverage operation moving.
Bottling and production
Keep your bottling and production lines running smoothly. Our forklifts and pallet trucks deliver the versatility and performance you need to unload, transport and store ingredients, packaging materials and empties of all shapes and sizes safely and efficiently. Whether you’re moving fragile glass bottles, “crowns” and other lids and caps, or heavy loads like aluminum coils, there is a Yale lift truck that is best for your beverage manufacturing workflows.
Warehousing and order fulfilment
Maximize beverage storage density and improve fulfilment accuracy and efficiency. Changing customer demands mean that beverage warehouses often manage over 3,000 different SKUs. With so many different pallet types and picking methodologies, you need to rethink your storage and fulfilment systems from the ground up. Our line of electric forklifts and pallet jacks deliver the versatility and performance you need to move more cases per hour (CPH) and deliver best-in-class results.
Distribution and delivery
Transport bottles, cans, kegs and other beverage products safely and efficiently from dock to delivery. Our warehouse forklifts help simplify picking and loading. And whether you’re delivering drinks to convenience stores, grocers, liquor stores, specialty bottle shops or other retail and entertainment destinations, our pallet jacks and specialized direct-store delivery (DSD) solutions give your delivery personnel the maneuverability and secure load handling they need to navigate tight trailer lift gates, rough parking lots and narrow store aisles with ease.
