These electric power pallet trucks are ideal for efficient loading, unloading and shuttle applications.

Taking most of the legwork out of pedestrian pallet handling, the NPP electric power pallet truck range is ideal for both horizontal movements and vehicle loading/unloading, with industry-leading performance that inspires confidence and boosts productivity in any application.

Operators will love the effortless comfort of the latest models’ updated tiller arm along with the speedy acceleration and precise drive control. Fleet managers will appreciate their robust, water-resistant construction and low operating costs. Maintenance staff will adore the fast and easy access to critical components and the option to charge the pallet truck without removing the battery. And health and safety supervisors will be delighted by the extra stability of the linked suspension castor wheels and the option to slow the truck down for extra-smooth handling.

The NPP16N3 electric power pallet truck is an ideal all-round machine for light handling applications and is small enough to be used on a mezzanine floor or transported in the back of a goods vehicle. The NPP18N3 and NPP20N3 electric power pallet trucks add greater capacity for heavier loads and more intensive work. The NPP20N3R is equipped with a foldable platform for occasional use when driving over longer distances. Its spacious platform, with suspension for a comfortable ride, is easy to get on and off, and also offers good ground clearance.

The NPP20N3E is equipped with lifting forks (735 mm height) that offer an ergonomic position for loading and unloading items with minimal physical strain. The double pallet handler, NPP20N3E, can carry two pallets simultaneously (one above the other) for higher productivity with no need for wider passage space. It is ideal for double-stacking of lorries, as well as general loading and unloading, picking, refilling and short-distance transport tasks.
