Best forklift machines price in Pakistan

In the previous decade, the construction industry of Pakistan has thrived a lot. Especially in the year 2012 till 2013 and even after those years when CPEC was launched in Pakistan. Several types of machinery are used for construction purposes by which the whole and proper construction of the buildings are done. However, not only for construction but for demolition purposes, several types of machines are required as the government has demolished illegal buildings, trade centers, houses, etc. With the help of powerful construction machines, illegal property was destroyed. One such machine from these construction machines is forklift machines, which are common in Pakistan in everyday life.

Different forklift machines are commonly used in Pakistan for demolition and construction. These types of forklifts are as follows:-

Hand pallet manual forklift truck:

The first forklift truck used in Pakistan was a hand pallet forklift truck. This truck is used in warehouses of big organizations for different shelves. As the goods are placed on high-rise shelves, that's why the help of a hand pallet forklift truck is required to transfer and move those goods from one place to another. This forklift truck has two blades attached at the front, carrying the goods to the warehouses and stores. This type of forklift truck is operated manually.

Forklift stacker machine 1.5 ton:

This forklift machine is used in warehouses and carries stacks of goods. As the goods are packaged in boxes, and those boxes are carried with the forklift stacker machine. As stated in the name, this forklift stacker machine weighs around 1.5 tons, designed for small spaces.

3-ton forklift truck: 

This forklift truck is used in open spaces, weighing around 3000 kg. This truck is used on roads to pick up more oversized materials than warehouses. Although this truck is not designed to carry heavy or massive weight, it is designed for open spaces and minor roads where the material has to be picked and shifted.

Type 3t forklift truck:

This forklift truck is manufactured by the Toyota Company and is high-performance. It is designed for large spaces and can carry a massive weight than other types of forklift trucks. This forklift truck machine is also used in open spaces and can take a hefty amount of weight.

Forklift heli diesel truck:

The forklift heli diesel truck runs on diesel, and it weighs around 10 tons. Unlike other trucks, the forklift heli diesel trucks have moveable blades that could go up and down like cranes, and this truck's blades are designed to pick the material and move up and down.

Forklift 5-ton STMA model:

This model of the forklift machines is designed according to an outdoor area, but it is used in medium spaces. This forklift machine weighs around 5 tons and can carry an average weight. The loading capacity of this particular forklift machine is 3500 kg, which is quite a good quantity. The blades of this truck are attached to its front as well.

Forklift 7-ton STMA:

This forklift machine is the updated version of Forklift 5 ton. Just as the previous machine was 5 tons, this machine is 7 tons, and the loading capacity of this forklift machine is 7000 kg, which is double the last truck's. However, it does not mean that the 5-ton forklift truck machine is useless, as both trucks are designed for their purpose.

Axon 3-ton diesel forklift truck:

These trucks come with one year warranty and run on diesel engines; that's why these forklift machines are reliable as they run on diesel. For heavy machinery, diesel is one of the best fuels. Although there are other types of fuels, a diesel engine is required for this forklift machine to run. The blades of this forklift machinery are also movable so that more goods can be lifted.

Forklift high-grade multi-wheel diesel truck:

This forklift truck runs on multi-wheels; that's why it's called a multi-wheeler forklift truck. This truck runs like a Jeep; that's why it is a multi-wheeler-operated truck. This truck could lift the weight of 4.5 tons. The multi-wheeler truck is also used to pick weights from rough areas; that's why it is designed accordingly to these areas. This forklift machine is suitable to run in the cities as well.

Man seating electric forklift:

A man-seated forklift is designed for sideways as the blades attached at the front are attached from right to left instead of straight. Moreover, this forklift truck has only a seating capacity of one man; that's why it is mentioned that this is a man-seating electric forklift machine in the name itself. This machine runs on electricity, and the weight it can carry is 1500 kgs.

Forklift factory stacker:

The forklift factory stacker is used in different factories to lift and transfer goods and materials to other places. This forklift machine is manual and has to be moved by hand as it cannot be moved manually.

Forklift trolleys:

Now the innovation in the industry of forklifting machines is forklift trolleys. However, these are forklift equipment rather than machines included in the list. These trolleys could also be considered machines. These trolleys carry weight from 1000 kg to 5000 kg, which is quite a considerable amount as these trolleys are small but are designed according to how these machines could take a massive amount of weight.

Electric forklift trucks and machines:

These are the ordinary forklift trucks used in Pakistan and are operated on electricity as these trucks run on electricity. That's why they are known as electric forklift trucks and machines. The electric forklift trucks keep the environment sustainable as they run on electricity, so these trucks do not create pollution. Moreover, these trucks are agile, noiseless, and are considered ideal for indoor use. However, it does not mean that they could only be used indoors. These trucks can be used for outdoor purposes as well. Electric forklift trucks come in standard shapes and sizes and are used in indoor factories and companies in Pakistan. These electric forklift trucks are ideal for the environment's maintenance and sustenance.

Diesel engine forklift trucks:

The diesel engine forklift trucks and machines have been used in Pakistan for a long time; that's why these forklift machines are standard in Pakistan. These forklift machines and trucks are ideal for outdoor areas and are built with more resilient power as these trucks have to work in rough and challenging locations.

Forklift pump truck:

Another common type of forklift truck used is the forklift pump truck, as this truck can pick and drop 5000 kg of weight, which is also quite the right amount.

Although some firms compete with Caterpillar, Caterpillar has come on top, and that's why Pakistan primarily imports forklift machines from Caterpillar. 

The remaining few machines are imported from Taiwan and Indonesian companies; some forklift machines are imported from China. The following suggestions should be used by which Pakistan's forklift machines would be produced and manufactured in Pakistan.

Government should set up more industries that manufacture forklift machines:

The government has invested in many sectors; thus, it should also set up more forklift manufacturing companies. Currently, the burden is on one company, Greaves Pakistan Pvt Ltd.

Use Pakistani manufactured machines and only import where necessary:

Mostly, the firms, industries, etc., Using forklift machines should try to buy Pakistani manufactured and made machines by which the import bill would reduce and positively affect the country's GDP. Although fewer forklift machines are manufactured in Pakistan, imports would also have to be done, but unnecessary substances should not be done.

Promote Pakistani-made forklift machines:

The Pakistani-manufactured forklift machines should be promoted through different mediums. The target audience who uses forklift machines and types of equipment would only use Pakistani manufactured forklift machines and types of equipment.

Therefore, the suggestions mentioned above should be followed by which Pakistani forklift machines would be promoted and sold.

Thus, it could be stated that the top forklift machine providers in Pakistan are two firms. One is Greaves Pakistan Pvt Ltd, a local firm, and another is Caterpillar Inc, in the USA.
