Komatsu Forklifts in South Africa

Komatsu forklifts are now available in South Africa through the Value Group. Komatsu have built an excellent reputation as a forklift brand through their heavy-duty products and unparalleled workshop service. Their primary objective since 1955 has been the achievement of low operating costs for their range of forklifts. With this in mind, you receive maximum benefit when purchasing a Komatsu forklift.

Komatsu forklifts are available in a number of different types (electric, diesel, petrol and L.P. gas lift trucks from 1.4 ton to 45 ton capacity), and the one you’re going to buy depends on your requirements for this powerful workhorse.

Gas or Electric Powered Forklifts?

Gas powered forklifts are going to get you better speed and power, however, it's going to cost you more to operate. Electricity is cheap, gas is expensive. You can get some pretty good lift, however.

Cushioned or Pneumatic Tires?

Komatsu have forklift models with both cushioned tires and pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tire forklifts are a higher-end model and have much more lift capacity - up to 35,000 pounds for the most powerful. If you get cushion tires, you can only get 3,000 to 10,000 pound capacity.

All the Komatsu forklift models have features that you'll be interested in - one of the better ones is a reduction in noise and vibrations along with ergonomic design of the chairs. This is designed to reduce injury and fatigue to the forklift operator. That's great from the perspective of a business owner - you can keep them running longer and avoid minor injuries that will cost you valuable work time.

Komatsu Electric Forklifts

Komatsu electric forklifts have a little less variety. One thing Komatsu does have more of, however, is variety in terms of the "alternate" lifting machines. A lot of these are becoming really popular these days because unlike traditional forklifts, they are more maneuverable and can fit into smaller spaces. Komatsu has multiple different, unconventional designs - from a Stand Up Rider/Walkie to "Stackers" and "Order Pickers" that don't take up anywhere near as much room as a regular forklift.
