Something to shout about
April 1st 2009

Yale Europe has won the 2009 Fork Lift Truck Association Award for the Environment with its patented Yale MP16S Low Noise powered pallet truck: An off-set third wheel and other noise reduction measures significantly reduce the operating noise when running over cracks and uneven surfaces in floors.

Accepting the award in Birmingham, Yale Europe managing director, Frank Ulbricht, said: "Noise is one of the greatest pollutants in the workplace and the measures we have taken dramatically reduce the unnecessary mechanical noise made by pallet trucks.

"Engineers working for Yale at its warehouse equipment development centre in Italy isolated all the potential noise generating points on the standard MP16S pallet truck and developed a solution for applications where noise is a major consideration. The result is the Yale MP16S Low Noise pallet truck." Andrea Lucchi, Yale General Manager for Warehouse Equipment added: "The award winning Yale MP16S Low Noise pallet truck is a popular low cost solution for a wide range of materials handling equipment users. It's a real winner."
