The busiest places of any warehouse are the shipping and receiving areas. As the docks are really crowded, trucks are engineered to be compact, maneuverable and have great visibility. Lift truck operators who are working on a dock should be able to step off and on their truck, during their whole shift. To be able to solve all of your horizontal transporting dock needs, Yale features the MPE unit.

Green Initiatives: In order to be compatible with new technology, Yale has engineered their lift trucks with the newest types of alternative power technologies. Some of the alternative power technologies consist of electric batteries, liquid propane gas or LPG and clean diesel.

Yale was amongst the first to use working fuel cells in actual applications, upholding the tradition. The company has supported the adoption of greener technologies through extensive internal testing, analysis and field validation. They work closely with different engineers developing innovative collaborations to be able to come up with the best product available.

Yale continues to investigate more efficient and advanced battery chemistries and newer technologies to be able to increase overall productivity, decrease toxic material content as well as reducing energy consumption. The company strives to remain dedicated to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through their participation in developing industry standards so as to safely adopt these greener technologies in a dependable way.

One more important factor for the company is recyclability within the Yale lift truck design. From the very beginning design stage, Yale actively chooses materials utilized in their machines with the recyclability factor taken into consideration. This is one of the many ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and make sure that their machine makes less of a footprint compared to other forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the newest technological developments and trying to help the natural environment at the same time, they have secured themselves among the leaders in the material handling business.
