Linde cements relationship with Belle December 1st 2006 Belle Group recently acquired two new Linde trucks, both equipped with hydraulically controlled extending forks for operation in double deep racking. The R14 reach truck and E16 compact electric counterbalance truck have capacities of 1.4 and 1.6t respectively and can lift to over four metres. Belle manufactures an extensive range of over 100 different types of machinery, and employs over 200 people on the Derbyshire site. When Belle came to Linde needing a logistics solution to meet the growing demands of the business, Linde Sterling, a Linde national network company responsible for the northwest and north Wales, took on the challenge. The new trucks not only set the standards of comfort and performance, combined with outstanding safety when operating in narrow aisles, but the extending forks enabled the installation of double deep racking in the factory. Belle operates a total of seventeen Linde trucks throughout the factory and warehouse carrying out an assortment of tasks ranging from load transfer to storage and retrieval to vehicle loading and unloading.
