Combilift launches national forklift safety campaign: “Lift Your Standards by Lowering Your Load”

May 31, 2024

Combilift, a global leader in material handling solutions, is proud to announce the launch of its new National Forklift Safety campaign, "Lift Your Standards by Lowering Your Load." This initiative aims to enhance awareness and promote best practices in forklift safety across industries.

Forklift safety is of paramount importance to Combilift, and every year, we are committed to using National Forklift Safety Day (NFSD) as a reminder of how forklift operations can and should be safer than ever.

This year, the NFSD falls on the 11th of June and in line with this, we are taking the opportunity to make June a safety-focused month.

Throughout June, we are partnering with our dealer network to provide free demonstrations to our customers to highlight the safety benefits of the multidirectional Combilift C-Series.

Key Points of the Campaign:

  • Safety First: Emphasizing the importance of maintaining a lower load height while traveling to improve visibility, stability and reduce accidents. (In compliance with OSHA standards, which mandate keeping the load as close to the ground as possible during travel)
  • Training and Education: Offering comprehensive training programs to ensure that forklift operators are well-equipped with the knowledge to perform their duties safely.
  • Industry Standards: Advocating for adherence to national and international safety standards in material handling operations.
